they were in the low 8's when we were watching them
7 min 15 for a full lap is completely impossible for that car.

that's what a lot of people reckon..
There are suggestions like a ring regular driving it - at a certain time of day with whatever brand of tyres.
7.15 is quicker than the Carrera GT.

Derek Bell did 6:41 min in his Porsche 956 - absolutely no way for a 7.15 full lap for a road going skyline

Love that video. What a great lap.
When we were over there the guys from caterham were over and they had the CSL super version, their quickest motor!
The driver on his 3rd ever lap got into the 8's.. Superlight squirt mobile

7:15 that must be a mistake, maybe 8:15, or its still a very fast BTG time.
