Ferrari has claimed that the Ferrari 599XX completed the 20.832-kilometer Nordschleife circuit at the Nürburgring in 6m 58.16 s. Ferrari claims this is the first time that a "production-derived sports car" has broken the seven-minute barrier.

This is not really true, as the Radical SR8 had a confirmed time of 6m 55s in September 2005, followed up by the Radical SR8LM last year, which finished in 6m 48s. Naturally, Ferrari will dispute that the Radical is not a "production-derived sports car."

Still, the time posted by the made-for-the-track 599XX is an accomplishment. We hope the exhilarating drive quality translates over to the road-ready Ferrari 599 GTO.

LOL!? I'm sorry, I appreciate how freaking fast the FXX is, but if you're going to call out technicalities on the SR8 with the FXX, then that's just hilarious!
