[@onelyone6976]

What is astounding is that this scored a time of 7.40.100 and a bugatti veyron 16.4 (From 2005) did the lap in exactly 7.40 that means that a 300hp fwd hatchback did almost the time of an early 2000s mid-engined supercar with 800-1000hp, a lambo murcielago LP 640, merc SLS AMG and a porsche 911 GT3 (997.2) scored the same time as the bugatti.

@@WeirdBrick not really. There is a reason most racecars are rwd and the top rally cars are 4wd. Remember when the Nissan LMP1 had to race without the hybrid system because it didn't work, leaving it with "only" 500hp and FWD?

@@goktugduran6548 LOL NO MY FRIEND. YOU ARE THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO THINK AGAIN. BY THE WAY I LOVE THE MEGANE TOO. DON'T GET ME WRONG BUT THE RENAULT IS NOT COMPLETELY HONEST ABOUT THEIR RESULT. ALSO, ABOUT THE ENGINE...THAT MEGANE ENGINE IS WEAKER ON IT'S TOP END COMPARE TO THE TYPE R 2.0. THE TYPE R FK8 HAS BEEN PROVEN TO REACH 185 MPH TOP END SPEED FOR A STOCK. AS FAR AS THE LAP RECORD, HERE THE REAL RESULT.... (READ CAREFULLY) THE MÉGANE TROPHY R RECORD IS NOT ACCURATE IF YOU COMPARE THE DIFFERENCE OF EACH REAL TOTAL LENGTH OF LAP. NO, ITS NOT THE RENAULT, ITS STILL THE TYPE R OFFICIALLY THAT HOLDS THE FASTEST FWD "TECHNICALLY". THE RENAULT REAL TIME WAS 7:45. DID YOU KNOW THAT ??!! THE FK8 TYPE R IS STILL OFFICIALLY THE FASTEST FWD HERE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE LAP TIMES OF TYPE R AND RENAULTS WAS THAT THE TYPE R DID THE OFFICIAL "WHOLE AND LONGER" LAP THAN THE RENAULT TROPHY R. www.thedrive.com/news/28129/renault-mgane-r-s-trophy-r-crushes-honda-civic-type-rs-fwd-record-at-the-nrburgring IT ( Megane R.S Trophy) DID THE FULL 12.9-mile-long distance of the entire Nordschleife loop in a mind-blowing 7:45.389. (7.40 equivalent under the new set up). Development driver Laurent Hurgon, who set two previous Mégane R.S. Nürburgring records, was behind the wheel for this record lap on April 5, when the video was taken. The Mégane R.S. Trophy-R is a deeply impressive car in its own right, with a turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine sending 300 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels. It's the same engine in the regular Mégane R.S., but the Trophy-R WENT ON A DIET, SHEDDING up to 287 pounds in the search of more speed. It also features aerodynamic and chassis UPGRADES that give it more grip than ever before. The "previous" front-wheel-drive record holder was the Honda Civic Type R, which lapped the 'Ring in 7:43.8. That was set back in 2017 BEFORE SEVERAL SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATIONS were made to the Nürburgring itself. SEVERAL SECTIONS have SINCE BEEN REPAVED and in some cases, REPROFILED, RESULTING IN FASTER LAP TIMES, according to the locals at Bridge to Gantry. Roadandtrack.com Two years ago, Honda redefined what a front-wheel drive car was capable of on Germany's famous Nürburgring, when it set a 7:43.8 lap in the Civic Type R. Last month, however, Renault "reclaimed" the record with a wild new hatchback, the Mégane R.S. Trophy-R. With driver Laurent Hugron at the wheel, the Mégane R.S. Trophy-R ran a "7:40.1" around the Nordschleife. WELL, IT'S A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT. Bridge to Gantry explains that in the past, the clock for a Nürburgring lap time started at the end of the start-finish straight, and ended at the beginning of that same start-finish straight. At, 12.8 miles, this (NEW) measurement is actually around 0.14 MILES SHY OF THE COMPLETE, (PREVIOUS) 12.94-mile lap of the Norschleife. This year, track officials started regulating lap times themselves, and they've mandated that a lap time starts and ends at the start-finish line, just as it would anywhere else. Using the old timing method-same as Honda did with Civic Type R in 2017-the Mégane R.S. Trophy-R ran a 7:40.1 (12.8 MILES LAP)....BUT UNDER THE Nürbugring's regulations, the Mégane set a 7:45.399. Confusing? Absolutely. But what's easy to understand is that the Mégane R.S. Trophy-R is a really quick car. It has the same 300-hp 1.8-liter turbo four-cylinder as the Mégane R.S. Trophy, but Renault Sport says the Trophy-R is up to 286 pounds lighter than the standard Trophy. Renault Sport isn't releasing full details on the Trophy-R yet, but it did say the aero and suspension has been REVISED over that of the standard Trophy. www.speedhunters.com/2017/04/honda-civic-type-r-vs-nurburgring/ Speedhuntrs.com The Type R’s time is more than three seconds quicker than that of the GTI Clubsport S’s 7:47.19, and almost seven seconds quicker than the previous generation FK2 Civic Type R AROUND THE 12.9 MILE NORTH LOOP. Renaultsports.com The New Mégane R.S. Trophy-R has had a fantastic year since its launch. In May, it took the fastest front-wheel drive crown at Germany’s famed Nürburgring Nordschleife track. Driven by Renau 20.600 km in 07:40.100, AND THE OFFICIAL WHOLE LAP LENGTH of the 20.832 km Nordschleife IN 07:45.389. SO TECHNICALLY THE CIVIC TYPE R FK8 RECORD IS NOT OFFICIALLY BROKEN MY FRIEND, AND THAT MAKES IT STILL THE LEGIT "OFFICIAL" ONE ( BASED ON THE FIRST ORIGINAL LONGER LAP).

[@pontifsulyvan623]

I think Renault F1 is little bit faster than street car :D.

@@HotCacahuete Didn't you know safety car is the fastest? Have you ever seen Mercedes AMG pass any safety car?

Bravo ! Without cheating and a 1,8 liter . Well done :-)

[@mayk3lll]

bimbeano I’m curious as to why you say without cheating? What did the other do?

[@arekb5951]

@@mayk3lll Honda had no rear seats, no infotainment, roll cage and unknown tyres (probably the fastest street legal tyres unusable on normal roads). Renault has beaten the record with the same exact spec you get from the dealership.

[@mayk3lll]

arekb5 fair enough but I wouldn’t exactly call it cheating. Honda did take out bits and pieces due to the weight of the roll cage.. if you ask me that’s just providing driver safety.. if anything it may work against the car having more weight added up high. As for tires I don’t see either one listing what they used but you’re right probably the best road legal tire you can use. Overall performance the Megane was better.. so much more stability and way less understeer.. obviously quicker too and as you say from a 1.8L. Probably all due to its weight

[@arekb5951]

@@mayk3lll Afaik Renault listed the tyres in their press release, Wiki says they were Potenzas S007, so the ones it's sold on. As for Honda, for some people it's cheating, for some it's not, Lambo did the same and it always will be an argument that undermines fairness of the attempt because their competitor Porsche didn't do it.

In 2017, Honda brought the Civic Type R to the North Course (20.832km per lap) of the Nürburgring, Germany, and made a time attack. As a result, the lap time of 7 minutes 43 seconds 80 was recorded, and the FF model fastest lap was updated. Renault has already attacked the Nürburgring North Course with a prototype vehicle of the new Mégane RS Trophy R. It is announced that the time at 20.6km is 7 minutes and 40 seconds 100 and the time at 20.832km is 7 minutes and 45 seconds 389. Which one is true?

[@MajorAMinor]

The info on the Megane is true. The Civic's 7:43 record was not measured on the 20.832 km length but on the 20.6 km

[@berlinmae07]

@@MajorAMinor LOL ARE YOU KIDDING ME ???? THE MEGANE RECORD IS FAKE AND NOT ACCURATELY CORRECT. YOU'LL SEE THE TRUTH IF YOU COMPARE THE DIFFERENCE OF EACH CAR REAL TOTAL LENGTH OF LAP. NO, ITS NOT THE RENAULT, ITS STILL THE TYPE R OFFICIALLY THAT HOLDS THE FASTEST FWD "TECHNICALLY". RENAULT REAL TIME WAS 7:45. DID YOU KNOW THAT ??!! THE FK8 TYPE R IS STILL OFFICIALLY THE FASTEST FWD HERE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE LAP TIMES OF TYPE R AND RENAULTS WAS THAT THE TYPE R DID THE OFFICIAL "WHOLE AND LONGER" LAP THAN THE RENAULT TROPHY R. www.thedrive.com/news/28129/renault-mgane-r-s-trophy-r-crushes-honda-civic-type-rs-fwd-record-at-the-nrburgring IT ( Megane R.S Trophy) DID THE FULL 12.9-mile-long distance of the entire Nordschleife loop in a mind-blowing 7:45.389. (7.40 equivalent under the new set up). Development driver Laurent Hurgon, who set two previous Mégane R.S. Nürburgring records, was behind the wheel for this record lap on April 5, when the video was taken. The Mégane R.S. Trophy-R is a deeply impressive car in its own right, with a turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine sending 300 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels. It's the same engine in the regular Mégane R.S., but the Trophy-R WENT ON A DIET, SHEDDING up to 287 pounds in the search of more speed. It also features aerodynamic and chassis UPGRADES that give it more grip than ever before. The "previous" front-wheel-drive record holder was the Honda Civic Type R, which lapped the 'Ring in 7:43.8. That was set back in 2017 BEFORE SEVERAL SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATIONS were made to the Nürburgring itself. SEVERAL SECTIONS have SINCE BEEN REPAVED and in some cases, REPROFILED, RESULTING IN FASTER LAP TIMES, according to the locals at Bridge to Gantry. Roadandtrack.com Two years ago, Honda redefined what a front-wheel drive car was capable of on Germany's famous Nürburgring, when it set a 7:43.8 lap in the Civic Type R. Last month, however, Renault "reclaimed" the record with a wild new hatchback, the Mégane R.S. Trophy-R. With driver Laurent Hugron at the wheel, the Mégane R.S. Trophy-R ran a "7:40.1" around the Nordschleife. WELL, IT'S A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT. Bridge to Gantry explains that in the past, the clock for a Nürburgring lap time started at the end of the start-finish straight, and ended at the beginning of that same start-finish straight. At, 12.8 miles, this (NEW) measurement is actually around 0.14 MILES SHY OF THE COMPLETE, (PREVIOUS) 12.94-mile lap of the Norschleife. This year, track officials started regulating lap times themselves, and they've mandated that a lap time starts and ends at the start-finish line, just as it would anywhere else. Using the old timing method-same as Honda did with Civic Type R in 2017-the Mégane R.S. Trophy-R ran a 7:40.1 (12.8 MILES LAP)....UNDER THE Nürbugring's regulations, the Mégane set a 7:45.399. Confusing? Absolutely. But what's easy to understand is that the Mégane R.S. Trophy-R is a really quick car. It has the same 300-hp 1.8-liter turbo four-cylinder as the Mégane R.S. Trophy, but Renault Sport says the Trophy-R is up to 286 pounds lighter than the standard Trophy. Renault Sport isn't releasing full details on the Trophy-R yet, but it did say the aero and suspension has been REVISED over that of the standard Trophy. www.speedhunters.com/2017/04/honda-civic-type-r-vs-nurburgring/ Speedhuntrs.com The Type R’s time is more than three seconds quicker than that of the GTI Clubsport S’s 7:47.19, and almost seven seconds quicker than the previous generation FK2 Civic Type R AROUND THE 12.9 mile North Loop. Renaultsports.com The New Mégane R.S. Trophy-R has had a fantastic year since its launch. In May, it took the fastest front-wheel drive crown at Germany’s famed Nürburgring Nordschleife track. Driven by Renau 20.600 km in 07:40.100, AND THE OFFICIAL WHOLE LAP LENGTH of the 20.832 km Nordschleife IN 07:45.389. SO TECHNICALLY THE CIVIC TYPE R FK8 RECORD IS NOT OFFICIALLY BROKEN MY FRIEND, AND THAT MAKES IT STILL THE LEGIT "OFFICIAL" ONE ( BASED ON THE FIRST ORIGINAL LONGER LAP).

[@1InVader1]

You can see the timer start at 0:11 right after the orange barrier on the right. The lap ends and time is set on the exit of the corner before that. This is the shorter (20.6km) config.

[@berksari1]
