Re: More ZR1 News

Well in my encounter with one... One i know recieved just a tune...

I observed its non squat luanch, Also its brakes slowed it faster..though we didn't both stand on it..

I think i'm very close to overall performance in upto 4th gear....


*encountered Zr1 was not the one i sat in*

Hey i got chewed up by memeber here......when i said i stayed within 1.5 cars of the Zr1 to an undisclosed speed.

Im sure if i were to drive one.....it would feel easier to achieve similar lap times...or straightline numbers. Even though my modifications are dead on for an "overall improved Zo6"

i produce anywhere from 540 to upto 551 depnding on dyno and temp
with torque in the 520 range..

granted the 200 lbs....i'm also lower slung better drag and downforce.....If i had coilovers better rotors and could eek a litle more torque. or lose some weight..

I 've posted some decent track times....but i think a stock Zr1 with a tune and on Dr's would waste me. However if i lost weight ,rotational mass, real brake upgrades, better shifting ect.

we'd ave to addrss the zo6 shortcomig to the zr1.....and even then it woul be a stock car vs a modded one...... the tune on a Zr1 brings very upper 500rwhp...i think it was quoted at 580 ish
with similar tq increases bove stock.


personally i think the MSRP by GM is right on....too bad the dealers need to rape the only people buying..
