Default Extremely rare ZR1 picture surfaces



Behold.

I can confirm that this is a real ZR1 with real snow on it. Even more astonishing, the car didnt melt or instantly decompose upon contact. Perhaps the rumors arent true, afterall.

I suspect I'll never seen such an abomination again.

My goodness, I hope not, it is blasphemy that any Corvette be subject to foul weather, let alone a ZR1! It should be tucked away, under cover, for the winter.

Yes, most were/are: Texas Mile, Houston Half Mile, Slip Stream roll racing at Pocono Speedway and Beast Coast shoot out roll racing at Maplegrove in PA. Keep the pedal to the floor as much as I can.

You can see the Z06 is a much more durable in the car for these situations. Just look and see how much snow it can handle as compared to the original photo above.
