Car looks good though I'm a little confused by the ZR1 badging. Is there a back story there as to why it has ZR1 badges?

It started out as a ZR1.

The car went a 4.48 @ 168 mph w/ a 140* track temp. Later in the day he posted a 4.49 @ 177 mph.

check out prolines website and see the prices.


im sure those 49's will turn into 19's if he gets the chassis right, till then ill race him when he shows his face in texas were tired of beating down on his old cars he sells to JOJO MELTON
if he shows up im running him , that thing is gonna have traction issues once he turns the boost on. i hope he gets this thing right tho wanna see more passes of wheels in air all the way down, this thing not have beadlocks??
