Now that is the way to set a Ring record! I wonder how the Honda Type R techs are taking the news?  :signLOL:

Whilst an awesome achievement, it took 4 years, more power, a new gen platform and semi slicks to beat a French tin can.

I suspect Honda will beat this. I also suspect as the Megane is reaching end of life, they'll have another shot with a 265.R

New FRS, VXtReme thing, R Evo, 1/2M etc etc all on their way. Amazing times in the hot hatch world, I don't remember such a jump in evolution for a long time.
Sideways yo!

I expect it'll look just like that in production form, too...

Good lap for a standard car, wonder how much faster the R version will be. Sounds brilliant.

Honda will beat i i guess. Unless we get a watered down crappy version like last time
