Default High mileage ZR1

I went to the NHRA Winter Nationals this weekend. When I was parking, I saw a ZR1 pull up. I thought it might be a forum member, so I went and said hello. Well he is a forum member, he just hasn't been on here for a while. It turns out his ZR1 has 210K miles on it! I wound up hanging out with him and his son the whole day. He went and introduced me to several of the old time drivers.

Well ZR-1 did set an endurance record. I guess they deserve it.

Please tell me that ZR1 has not even had an engine rebuild. That would be insane!

Different guy, so I guess that makes two!

He makes an aftermarket brake booster for people with high lift cams.
I'll post his info when I get back to the hotel.
