Found this on another forum. From Italian magazine Quattroruote. No LFA in this test, but pretty cool to see so many awesome cars being tested at the track together!

No real shockers I guess (we all know the 458 and SL are beasts), but I have to say I didn't realize the SLS was that trackworthy--it was as fast as the Turbo S around the road course. And the GT-R is still looking like a hell of deal at 85k.
