On the 17th and 18th of October 2005, The Koenigsegg CCR conducted the thorough and crucial Sportauto Supertest. The article will be published in the spring of 2006.
However we have received permission to share some of the ground breaking data in advance.

The Supertest conducted by Sportauto cheif-editor Horst von Surma is considered a true benchmark of performance.

Even tough the conditions was far from ideal, with temperatures ranging down to 6 C, the Koenigsegg still managed to show class leading performance with a time of 7 minutes and 34 seconds around the Nürburgring Nordschleife, with comparatively cold tires, minimizing the grip level.

At the same time the CCR obtained the fastest ever recorded speed on the long Doetinger Hoehe straight, reaching the outstanding speed of 313 km/h.

Due to the cold weather, the tires did not reach full working temperature, which is equivalent to a loss of minimum 5 seconds per lap around the ring, compared to a well tempered day, according to the experts.

Given warmer conditions, we are now more confident than ever, that CCR will be the first production car under 7 minutes and 30 seconds.

All the acquired data and settings, such as wheel alignment, tire pressures etc, is available to any Koenigsegg customer. Utilizing this data, the CCR drivers can set up their KACS system to - "Ring Dominance", in order to obtain Nordschleife track day superiority.

0-200 km/h: 9.6 Seconds – New record!
36 m Slalom speed: 138 km/h – New record!
110 m Slalom Speed: 158 km/h – New record!

Hockenheim:
Laptime: 1.09.8 Seconds
Long straight end speed – just before nord kurve: 220 km/h – New record!

Nürburgring - Nordschleife:
Laptime: 7.34 Seconds
Long straight end speed - Doetinger Hoehe: 313 km/h – New record!

God damn! Those are amazing numbers, this car is simply unreal! Such perfrormance, is really wild.

Awesome numbers, amazing considering how 5th gear rubbished this car!

Well i guess that run took them like 50 takes.. and they had the whole factory with em to the ring.. thats not how its supposed to be..if they want to sell a prouct today.. it shoul work under all conditons.. even when its not supervised by the ppl who built it...

50 runs or not Artist, this is the car my man, set many new higher standards. Very impressive rare car. The orange one Just_Me posted was beautiful.

for your information, Pagani team was also there when Sportauto drove Zonda F.

Im sure they where.. but i need you to show me one test or any report or rumor of a pagani braking down..

They are obviosly covering it

Yes let say so

Ohh and what is so amazing about a 800hp car not taking the record on the ring??
When cars in the low 600´s have the record.. i dont find anything amazing

due of low roadtemperatures, they will try again when its warmer, below 7.30 min wont be a problem. Anyway, they set new records, not bad for a tiny carcompany
