ZR1 out at the Texas Mile
#101
Straight line speed helps in a road course, and it provides greater comparability because the driver skill factor is minimized. Unless it's a pro driving or official manufacturer lap time or magazine hot lap comparison test, I find straight line stats more interesting for even track cars.

Fast list shows fastest stock ZR1 to be 184 with a few others in the low 180s. Could one run upper 180s? Maybe with perfect conditions and a great driver.

Most are. The one I am referring to has put out numbers that just can't be backed up at the track or mexico racing. They charge to retune cars that were done in nearby cities and always get 20-30 more HP, but, rarely run any better at SAR (1/4 mile track) or vs cars they have run before in mexico..... With that much more on a Mustang dyno vs a dynojet, the increase would be (should be??) obvious.

There is no question that part of this thread threw out numbers that must have been for the Magnum rather than a 1-mile event, but didn't state that, creating confusion or at least disbelief.
