Default Stock ZR1 on DR's getting FASTER!

It was my birthday today so it was a nice present to break my own record by a 10th!

DA at time of pass by dragtimes was -754 (That is good air but not GREAT) so with some better air FARTPIPE I do believe I will get my 10.49!
Unfortunately the 10.56 had no video but I ran 3 10.57's and got a couple of them on tape!

60'.........1.598
330'........4.489
1/8.........6.845@104.88
1000'......8.861
1/4........10.560@133.25

It is funny how you will become the standard for bragging rights. When people ask another ZR1 owner “what will it do in the quarter mile”, the next reply will go “It can do 10.50’s stock”.

Great times indeed. but come on, that is great air. Racers in 90% of North America would kill for that air....

That may very well be true, but we are spoiled here in the NE and it truly was JUST good (NOT great) air.

Great job driving today Kyle & happy birthday! You kept that quiet! Glad I was there to see it in person! Congrats!!

Congrats on the new record.

I agree the DA was kinda of low but not that low for the NE and who cares anyway that is an Awesome ET and MPH for a bone stock car.

Congrats again Kyle. You drove the car to some very impressive passes
yesterday. The car is a beast and your driving has really stepped
up to a hard to attain level over the past few rentals.

Very Nice run CAPT. In the 60s, who would have ever believed that someday you could buy a new car that will run in the 10s? This is for sure the MUSCLE CAR ERA.. Not everyone can shift like you do and grab the gears..Good driving!

That's for sure. Best air that I have ever seen at Barona is +1600.

Kyle's ZR1 is a 2009, so no PTM except for the ones inside his hands and feet.
