General Motors Corvette line has been crowned the fastest car by an American manufacturer on Germany's world-famous Nürburgring racetrack. Notably, the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, ZR1, and ZR1X achieved record lap times on the 12.9-mile Nordschleife circuit with three non-professional drivers behind the wheel.

Wow! Both the 1,250-hp ZR1X and 1,064-hp ZR1 easily broke the seven-minute barrier—with GM engineering employees, not pro racers, behind the wheel.

A trio of Corvette supercars — piloted by Chevy engineers — raced epic German track to challenge Mercedes and Porsche, including the ZR1X hypercar.
