Every time I watch a "Theracingchannel" video, I'm reminded how annoying I find it when people describe their power as "XXX number +."

More details about the ZR1 would be nice.

Hmmm...the torque produced alone by the ZR1 should be way more then the Evo, which, SHOULD have allowed it to walk the evo a lot easier.....not to mention it says he runs a 10.xx 1/4?? The ZR1 was built with TIRES.....hard to believe from a roll it would look like that, maybe a dig where the EVO could get its 4wd launch in but....something's not right with the given numbers one way or another...
