Something I found on the ZR1 this morning -

ZR1 is super several times over

Can you ever have too much power?

Race car drivers will tell you “no”; but then again, so will tyrants. Race car drivers will love the latest Corvette – the ZR1. Then again, so might tyrants … especially if it lets them beat a hasty withdrawal from a city under siege in the middle of the night.

But as Spiderman learned, “with great power comes great responsibility”, and the good folks at Chevrolet certainly put that idiom to good use by endowing the ZR1 with a host of safety features to insure a driver will not shirk his or her responsibility.

A quick history lesson: Corvettes of the 1970s had a ZR-1 option package (as well as 12 ZR-2 models in 1971), which was basically a racing package with a heavy duty transmission and revised suspension. The first “original” ZR-1 appeared in the 1990 model year, after GM bought Lotus and had the British company provide a new engine and suspension system. It was hoped the new engine would top 400 hp, but it came in at 375.

You can't get enough HP. 1000 would be nice just for a street ride! about 8000 for the strip

Oh! forgot to tell you my lady runs on nitrous about 460 hp!!! not to shabby for that yr.

ZR-1, none better, best power for the money!:thumbsup3:
