The ZR1 is in a class of it's own, I'm definately in for the long haul.

I'm with you Peter, out of all the cars I've owned/modded/raced nothing compares to my zr1. I plan to keep it forever. All the others can come and go.

This how I drive my zr1. Short blasts with short shifting. The car pulls everywhere and blurs my vision easily. I don't track it because I don't want to fix it .

I think some of us come and go and the reason is we get drawn to the next car that is faster in a straight line...


Then there are the few that get hooked by the all around performance and we are just stuck.

(sadly this means y'all are stuck with me)



canz i getz an amen......
long live the king
