If I remember I'll dig the article out and check.

Litchfield Type-25 v Caterham CSR 260 v Lotus Exige S v Radical SR3 1300 v Ariel Atom v Porsche Carrera GT v Ford GT v Ferrari Enzo v McLaren F1 | Car Group Tests | Car Reviews | evo

I found this one, Carrera GT lapped the West Circuit in 1:20.20, around 1 second faster than the Enzo and McLaren, and they even went to say this isn't even the fastest lap recorded for the Carrera, this completely blitzes any production 911 lap time.

Best/only GTR lap is 1:21.7 which is a highly respectable lap for a car of its size and they commented on how easy it was to acheive those laps where as the Carrera GT is a nervious thing on a knife edge.
