that, sir, is a damn fast car! wish i could touch 10's with JUST a new pair of tires

 

[IDAFC21]

i likes.

 

[Smokinhot]

now do that with exhaust and a tune on a tire

 

[Runtz52]

 

[jeff99gtp]

header back exhaust, intake, throttle body, smaller pulley, and a tune and i bet thats a low 10 sec car on some DRs. now toss in some corn, 9s?

 

[Mook]

just to fuel the fire....any bets on which car hits 9s first? the zr1 or the GTR? my money is on the GTR. and not just b/c i to them

 

[Mook]

also, removing the z06 from the equation since its already done that

 

[jeff99gtp]

i bet it is the GTR also, i really havent seen to many ppl modding up on the ZR1s.

 

[Mook]

exactly. i find that very strange. maybe its retarded fast enough for most people

 

[Mook]

the GTR record is at 10.4 currently and tuners are finally starting to ramp up development on turbo kits. greddy is working on a kit that will be good for 880hp

but i digress, didnt mean to hijack

 

[jeff99gtp]

meh :gives: its not like threads stay on the topic anywho. but i would def like to see somemore ZR1s modded up with some track numbers and whp numbers.

I think the ZR1 because the corvette platform in general has already been to the 9's.

According to the first video, its the same guy driving both cars. So who knows whats up with the ZR1.

 

[ktraver97ss]

I would guess traction issues.

VEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKK could probably drive the car faster. You know him, right Mook? He's a god on the 350 boards.

 

[Mook]

i rarely go on the Z boards

The guy sort of bogged it some coming out of the hole.

I'd imagine riding the clutch out a little longer and/or launching at a shade higher RPM could have knocked another couple tenths off.
The 60' was decent, high 1.7s, but I'm sure they could do better.

Impressive any way you cut it though.

barker will run 10.5's with stock ZR1 on a tire.

I agree, its seemed prety weak out of the hole. It just didn't ramp up like i thought it would. I still think the Z06 was more impressive aswell since its 130hp shy of the ZR1. Definietly need work on the launch.

still very impressive for a stock car on tire
