Default The ZR1 vs. GTR PRO!? ;)

I just want to know what kind of tires it was running. It looks very smooth, and composed!

Don’t know the tires, but it is incredible the level of vehicle performance available to the $$$consumer. Wow!

Thanks for sharing.

FME on stock tires has this 7:04 beating the GT3 RS as far as I'm concerned.
Hopefully, that ILE kit for the ZR1's coming at least aftermarket! 6.59! There were those post production mules out there, but, Barra!?

No ZR1 did a 6:59 or even close while mules were testing.

That was just conceptually based on the tweaks they did on the GTR. Same kind of tweaks, and more tire on the ZR1.

If we say the said cars originally were close at The Ring, which, it appears they were, then the transmissions being a constant would be irrelevant.
Of course I've looked at a ZL1 1LE SUSPENSION upgrade type kit as likely being key in accomplishing this months ago. Similarly!

6.57 for the C7 ZR1 (segmented time on stock tires) vs 7.03 for the GT2 RS with stock tires.

It shifts pretty darn fast @ auto mode. Have you tried it? I was surprised big time when I tested a friends C7Z A8 vs my wifes Macca 720s. ZR1s A8 is tuned to shift even faster.

Only on CF does one have the pleasure of reading someone brag about sector times. Entertaining, seriously.

What is most entertaining is watching guys haggle over a few seconds on some track where it takes 7 minutes or more to go around once. The internet racing champions think they can feel a difference of less than one percent, flatly laughable. My blah, blah, $375,000 Porsche does the Ring 3 or 4 seconds faster than your POS Corvette in a seven minute race, yeah, OK.

The only "Macca 720s" your wife owns is the one on Xbox. Give it up Stroke.

You got that right Dude. Meanwhile the ZR1 destroys any Porsche in its price range but for a couple hundred thousand more Porsche will sell you one that is a tiny bit faster. Hump away 911 Fanboys.
