Gumpert 'Ring time creams ACR, ZR1, GTR.

The Gumpert Apollo, Germany's latest and greatest super car, has run a 7:11.57 around the Nurburgring - making it both the fastest semi-practical production car and fastest car that looks like an insect with wheels.

The Dodge Viper ACR ran a 7:22.1, the ZR1 a 7:26.4 and the Nissan GT-R a 7:26.7. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nürburgring_lap_times)

While the Gumpert is stupid fast, it is technically not the fastest production car around the 13 mile course - the Radical SR8LM runs 6:48s.
