I am sure Iroc_Z28 told them to not go over or under too much on the time. Because he told them he had a bet on the ZL1 site.

We also know the Gen 5 ZL1 did a lap time at MRC of 1:56.58, and 7:41.27 around the 'Ring.

Having a car that has produced a documented lap at both tracks with the same driver (2012 ZL1)...we can create a factor, check it against the 2017 ZL1's performances...and apply it to the new ZL1 1LE's estimated Milford Road Course time of 1:50.xx, to get a best guess and a margin of error...

After doing some maths...

My prediction is: 7:15.27 - 7:17.68 (+/-2 seconds).

...for whatever it's worth...I'm guessing 7:16 +/- 3 seconds.

On the Ring, that translates to somewhere around 12-16 seconds.
Maybe they're just starting to get predictable.
