Closing Speeds
Here's a session from VIR today. The closing speeds from the ZR1 to every other car on the track are just astounding. This was the red run group with open passing.

Amazing driving, amazing car, and some seriously scary speeds. It looks like a video game when you're using cheats!
Thanks for sharing, love to see a ZR1 as it was meant to be driven.

You're running 170+ mph on some parts of that track, most of the cars on the track with you couldn't dream of 170 mph speeds.

Sean,
Looks like you surprised everybody with your closing speed. Do you still have the carbon ceramic brakes on your car or have you switch over to iron discs?

LOL...really? That looked like amateur hour. The lineup of cars was more like the starting grid of a Lemons race rather than a "red run group." Not sure what the intent was as I know you're not a rookie, but that was hardly anything impressive.
I'm fully aware things are skewed here compared to the rest of the country, but there were three GT2RSs, two P1s, several Performantes, and 80 or so other proper supercars last week at a standard Laguna trackday, some of whom broke into the 1:20s. Trust me...you'll have a lot more fun driving with a group where you're better aligned by experience, car type, risk tolerance, and demographic.

don't worry, we'll wait for your answer..........
What is posted is what will be common at 95% of track days for a talented driver in a fast car. No one can decide who else comes to the event. Just shown up and run it. You talk like he cherry picked the event or session to make himself look better. If you haven't noticed he's posted sessions with more equally matched to slightly faster cars as well. Get over yourself.
