The obvious questions are: Rumor? Source? Tires? Driver?

That achievement would represent about a 2 standard deviation performance above and beyond what a 3450 lb car with 450 hp could obtain (see prior threads on 'Ring time vs. power to weight regression analysis...). Unless the power to weight is substantially better than this and/or it is running street legal race rubber I seriously doubt a time of 7:3X. My prediction (given the best rumors on power and weight) is a 7:5X time.
