i'm doing that now worked out you need to complete the nurburgring in less than 7mins 16seconds in a standard SLR as the 300sl Takes 9mins 16secs and it has a 2 minutes head start

I was thinking that is part of the technique as you can then slipstream them and get some speed back, you'll sit at 162ish all the way around but this goes to 168-169 on passing people. I thought you had to bounce off them a few times to get close to the front runner, but I've not been able to do this.

ive done it, there are 2 different ways to do it.
If you find that link i posted with the car list etc, it is on there.
one is to get 2nd place, use mirror and keep getting crashed into from behind to pick up speed, but i couldnt get that way to work

23. Nissan Skyline GT-R
In this mission, you start out a couple seconds behind a pack of four
Skylines, and about 13 seconds behind a sole Skyline. You have to utilize
drafting to catch up to the leader before the 3 laps runs out. The best
way to do this is draft going into the curve until you reach about 172-175
mph. Then 'leap-frog' in front of the cars. Since the AI doesn't adjust
to TRY to draft you, you'll need to look in your rear-view mirror to stay
directly in front of the AI cars. WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T SLOW DOWN. The
pack will start to catch up eventually if you stay in line with them. Let
them pass you so you can draft them right back. This 'forced leap-
frogging' should let you catch the leader toward the end of the last lap.
DON'T let the leader draft you if you get in front.
Alternate strategy by Cybersk8er5000:
"Ok. From the start, draft the pack like you usually would. By the time you
get to the first turn, you should be up to 170-171 MPH, with the pack just a
little ahead. Keep going, and when you get to them, pass them at ~172-174
MPH. Now follow the outer yellow line, and by the end of the turn, you
shouldn't be any lower than 164. If you look behind you at this point, the
whole pack should be not far behind you. During the straightaway, just stay
on the outer yellow line at a steady 164-165 MPH. Near the end, if you keep
an eye out behind you, you'll see one of the Skylines break free of the rest
and draft you. Usually they go on the inside (left) so just smoothly steer
over to where you're right in front of them (your speed shouldn't change more
than 1 MPH), and they'll slam right into you. Usually this'll put you back up
to around 170-171 MPH.
Keep doing this on each straightaway, and on the final straightaway before
the final turn, one Skyline should draft you, with a second Skyline drafting
the first. Now just let the first one hit you, and then the second one, and
you should get launched forward to around 175 MPH. Halfway through the turn,
you'll start picking up the lead car's draft, and you'll pass them in no time
Split times (at the end/beginning of each lap) should be approx.: 6.7xx,
4.0xx, and -1.5xx at the finish line. Speeds on the straightaways should be
164 minimum MPH, and between 170 and 163 through the turns."
