I think the words 'mind boggling' came to mind when I first saw that, especially when I compare it to my times.

But on the other hand, Randy is a professional race car driver and is wheeled out by Motor Trend to put down fast consistent laps. He literally does this for a living.

So I'd be very interested to hear more about your source, who's saying that 135i was a ringer. It's not unknown with Ferrari being the most suspect. But I didn't think the German companies of BMW, Porsche and MB were inclined to do that.

Karl.

PS: Here's Motor Trend's Laguna Seca times for the past recent years (and where I got the 135i time). Many of those times were put down by Randy.
