It's always a lot of fun with the ZR1 on the track.

All Porsche were no opponents ...

They certainly weren't! THAT was getting it done. Great driving! Please accept honorary USA citizenship from ZR1 friends on other side of the pond!

Imola/Italy/AC-DC/ - ZR1's blowing the doors off of some Porsche GT's! Does it get any better than that?

Wow! That was fun to watch.

I have to wonder. Were the two ZR1s and their driver's that good, or were the GT3s and their driver's that bad? It appeared to be no contest.

I am so glad the salesman snubbed me when I was looking at buying a GT3 before the ZR1 purchase!

Many Porsche were also heavily modified.
A good friend has on his GT3 RS Investments made ​​by 110000Euro
The engine now has 4.2 and 565PS, the car 80 kilos lighter, Bilstein coilover GT3, racing brakes, Uniball and much more.

Nevertheless, he also had to admit that was just perfect ZR1

@All
Thanks for all the words


@ZR1Cat
I would think we have our two ZR1 very well prepared.
Surely I must also say that I know very well the ZR1.
The racetrack in Imola is very fast and dangerous, because it needs a bit of spunk to the ZR1 to go very quickly to the limit.

If both natural fits well, so a top ZR1 and a good driver ...
Then this is the result

How about the specific mods and horsepower of the Porsches you passed?

WOW. Excellent video. Those GT3's were bad enough, but that M3 got passed like it was standing still!

Thanks for the video.
