[geoffm]

come and take a look at it at quirk chevy in manchester nh or if some one wants to buy it its 121,000 to buy it and is sposto to be faster than a enzo

It could end up being the fastest car GM ever built. Sure would be cool to take it for a weekend test drive..

No problem Mark. I am sure the COM Time Trialing License would be just the ticket to getting a test drive.

[breakaway500]

Isn't that what the car is built for?

[John F]

Nice car. Only $121k, such a bargain.

[breakaway500]

^ I agree.That much performance for that kind of money is a screaming deal. Would I buy one? Naah..it has a roof and fenders... (and yes,I know you were being facetious.. )

[geoffm]

ya sales has it locked up in the shrow room with those carbon ceramic brakes begging for someone to bring them up to temp but for 20 grand i could make a screaming pro stock thats more fun to drive and faster

[breakaway500]

Hmm...I dunno...the ZR1 experience will be very hard to duplicate in a pro stock, at any cost..
They are very cool looking and performing Corvettes,and I would love to see one run with COM...but chances are,we won't see one on track,ever.What a shame..

[geoffm]

their has been 2 sold at mcmulcun chevy in nashua so idk. personaly i think people are going to buy them to put in their living rooms and to talk about not show wat it can do. but trust me i can make a pro stock very exciting but it wont have the same affect as a zr1

[jakesrodshop]

i saw a brand new one with a cage and slicks on it get wrecked at the glen last october, ls9, carbon brakes damn...

[agrabau]

One of our friends just had two Camaros built with LS9s and paddleshifters. Both were at Sema. They're like 7 or 900 hp.. something esoteric. I think that the ZR1 would tear everyone a new one on the track.

"I think that the ZR1 would tear everyone a new one on the track."

Too bad we will never see one on track.... 99.9% of them will never leave their garages.

Your wish is my command.. Here is a ZR1 on track...driven rather well.. The chase car is 04 Cobra driven by a buddy of mine.. The flea market situation at around 3:12 gives the Corvette an opportunity to cut across a coned chicane.. I can't really make much sense of the lines my friend is driving....particularly the first real left hander in the vid.

Driven rather well? I am sure the ZR1 is more capable than that..!!

[TroyV]

I did say rather.....

I'm sure it is more capable.....but I think the car is driven well enough in a DE context and among the group around them. You can't really expect a guy that just spent a small fortune on a machine like that to be pushing 10/10..

....well...I guess I can expect that in your case.... How many times did you say you spun out at a DE?
