Default New ZR1 At The Track.

Im in Memphis.... for work....again. and thought id go to TnT tonight because i have nothing else to do....
What do i see.... a brand new ZR1.
I snapped a few pic's with my iPhone. Sorry quality isnt better.
On stock tires with 1000 miles on it..... 11.25@131 isnt bad at all.
He did better then Road and Track.
This was his best pass of 6 passes.... started out @ 11.6 then 11.4...

I looked at the slip and it went like this

60' - 1.967
1/8 - 7.45@101.97
1/4 - 11.25@131.3

Here are the pic's....






















Anyone else seen them in person yet???

Ha Ha yep.... good eye LOL
Gotta eat......
I doubt they will get slicks on them..... that rear rotor is HUGE....
I wonder if there even going to make a drag radial that big..... 325/25/20's out back..... Silver wheels looked awsome and so did the blue on the calipers... matched the motor, seats, and badges.

I saw one in Brassleton GA in Sept at the Chip Foose car show at Year One. It was yellow and I hated the blue calipers with the yellow color. It totally clashed.

those rotors are carbon ceramic, and theyre about $10,000ish if i remember correctly. nitto makes a 305/20 drag radial, thats about the widest it gets right now. and yes they are amazing in person.

If it went 11.2 at 131 then it's making around 540 to the wheels. That's quite impressive for a STOCK vehicle.
