An Australian view on the Nürburgring Nordschleife

Honda NSX test mule laps Nürburgring in 7:37

June 20th, 2008 Posted in Honda, Manufacturer testing

Honda NSX at the Nurburgring NordschleifeHonda is the latest manufacturer to have thrown its hat into the Ring chasing uber fast lap times. A report on autoblog.com suggests a Honda NSX test mule has been timed by spy photographers lapping the Nordschleife under 7 minutes 40 seconds, or 7:37 to be precise. That’s some pretty elite territory the NSX would be keeping if these times can be replicated in some sort of official capacity. The all new NSX is believed to have a V10 with around 550hp and reports from bridgetogantry.com certainly back up the claims of it soundling like a V10. It is believed the NSX is still around two years away from release. If that’s the case, and these reported times are on the money, then I suspect we’ll be hearing a hell of a lot more about this car!

Thanks to Peter for the tip.
