Default ZR1 in car @ Wannagofast

Few vids from this weekends Wannagofast racing in Ocala, Fl, managed to set a record for the fastest stock motor/heads/cam ZR1 in the 1/2 mile so I'm pretty stoked

Thanks! Not much done actually, it's got an intake, LT's, 2.6" upper pulley and supporting mods (i.e. cooling, injectors..), stock throttle body/snout/heads/cam!

Good ****. I wanna hit a couple this year. What tires are you running? I saw Parker and Garrett’s videos so I know traction wasn’t great and I noticed you short shifted 1st and 2nd on the nitrous passes.

My car can only do 154 in 4th. Would I be faster than that? If yes then I'm not going to one lol.

Thanks dude, yea the surface is always pretty dusty so traction is at a premium for the first 1000 or so feet. That was on 335/35/18 Hoosier DR2's.

It's roughly 25-30 mph over your 1/4 trap from what I've seen. 1/2 mile is a lot of fun.

Those I think are 26’s right? What are you shifting at and what mph do you hit before shifting to 5th?

Definitely 26's...that's the tire I'll probably switch to once I wear out my 28" Mickeys. 28" tire plus a long first gear has not been good for my clutch.

Those were awesome runs at the half mile...love that ZR1.

Figure they were. For my power, what I’m revving to, and gearing my 28” M&H’s work better and avoid 5th unless I need to go faster than 174mph.

179mph is boogeying in the standing half. 900rwhp? The only thing that can put up a fight on the highway against the built GTRs these days are ZR1s on spray or the supra. My nitrous V is in mid 140s in quarter and I'm getting bored
