That's a possibility if the specs are considerably better than the ZL1 1LE in current form. My point was that a ZL1 1LE in stock form isn't capable at all of running a sub 7 second ring time. Once again, I think people need to look at the list of cars on the list that are in that category now, from a physics standpoint, it's just not possible.

I own a 2022 McLaren 720s along with my modified 800hp 2021 ZL1. The McLaren 720s weighs 3200lbs and makes 710hp, the official Ring time for that car in stock trim is 7:08. I can absolutely say that car is MUCH quicker than the ZL1 in every way, and it should be, it weighs 700lbs less and makes 60hp more from the factory, along with a superior chassis, lower center of gravity, active aero, mid engine layout, SSG transmission, etc...so those saying that a stock ZL1 1LE can run a sub 7 second Ring time are out of their damn minds because it's not possible from a physics standpoint. At the ring every tenth is A LOT, so when people speculate a car can run several tenths faster with a few variable changes, that's actually saying a lot more than they realize. There's a reason why so many supercars all run within 10-15 seconds within each other at the Ring.
