This weekend (Saturday), I ran the ZR-1 at Sulfur Springs Airport. I was amazed at the attention the car received that day. Many people were excited to see it and that I brought it out to run. I was also impressed that some of the younger generation knew about the car, motor, and some history. My car is stock except for Z06 brakes and Shelby Series One wheels and it ran a best of 136.86. The car like most blew their tires off, traction was a impossible. Track was very dirty and had many near misses by many cars though out the day, one Lamborghini caught fire during a run, another went off the end of the track and damaged the side of the car. There were many C7 Zo6's, one I actually ran against. He left the car in manual mode when he prefers auto and forgot to shift he said and blew the tires off, he barely caught me at the end of the run. I have some videos of the day and I will post them ASAP. Overall I had a lot of fun and the car ran great.
