Regardless of the tire, this is amazing performance!

Manufacturers website says the lap time was done on "exclusive Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3R."
Tirerack lists the non-R version as an extreme category summer 220tw. OE for the SS 1LE and standard ZL1- these guys are calling it comparable to the MPSC2..
It didn't do that lap on a tire like MPSS with how much aero and how much spring rate this probably runs. Not taking away from the car but street tires don't last on a 2 minute course at 8/10s, they won't last on a 7 minute course at 10/10s (which many ~200tw tires will lose steam over).
