That's an interesting way of spinning that they couldn't actually achieve a record breaking run. There was a record setting window open for automakers to attempt last night, and given the non-announcement, I'm betting they didn't do better than Porsche. Many automakers sum of the fastest time through each section from different attempts to calculate the fastest potential time the car can do, but that number is usually very different than what's possible in reality given the human and environmental factors involved in getting a good Ring time, the performance degradation in the tires, brakes, and in this case, the batteries and motors, and just the fact that a good time in one section might be at the cost of a worse time in the preceding or following section for a net negative so the sum of sections time can be flawed. When the Corvette was attempting a Ring time, it's best sum of segments time was 6:57, but it could only manage 7:04 in real attempts.
