Default Fastest Standing 1/2 mile ZR1 in the World

Ill gather up some pics and video, but just wanted to congratulate Jeff. H and show off his time slip for the fastest 1/2 Mile Zr1 in the world. (That I know of.)

I got this car in my hands with some issues roughly 6 weeks ago. Completely revised the cooling system, got the heads done, swapped the cam, ported the blower, as well as some other changes, and tuned the car in time for Virginia WannaGoFast last weekend. Needless to say the car ran it's *** off with a best of 190 MPH. I don't think there is a sticky for 1/2 mile on here, but I figured some of you guys would like to know regardless.

Here is a video of Jeff and I running side by side. On this pass, I went 180, he went 185, pretty cool.

I agree. I don't know of another stock bottom end car will be able to take this record down. Never know, he will probably break it again in Georgia since the DA won't be so bad.

Congrats! I think this car will stand as the stock bottom end record holder for a while. Hope I can make one of these events and go for that 200 mark!

Running faster in a 1/2 mile than most stock ZR1's can do in a full mile is one heck of a feat!

So when and where is the Illinois 1/2 mile event this year? I'm in IL near St. Louis and would love to check it out if near me.
