Those speeds are achieved in my E92 M3, though equipped with Intrax suspension. Ok, I was being a bit harsh, they aren’t slow, but they aren’t at the high end either.
ok well done, you should be doing laps well into 7:30 BTG if not lower in that case as those speeds are pretty similar to what a 7:11 full lap on the 991.2 gt3 factory run registered as well.

That went into SX at 186mph and then 135mph around the bend. 127mph min around Flugplatz, different ball game entirely.

172 kmh ie 106 mph seems to be the min speed at Flugplatz at 54 seconds in.

196 kmh ie 122 mph minimum around SX, 1:13 into the video.

Not exactly a different order of speed differential with the jaguar. Normal? not to me that's for sure.....

Oh, sorry, I thought we were talking about the new GT2. GT3 (non-RS) is roughly the same pace as a good E92 M3 with basic mods, I’ve a video of someone driving my car who’s pushing a (averagely driven) GT3 and a GT4 around the lap, but an RS is quite a bit faster.
