For street wars. I want to see how the car does since the top end porting and 13.5lb Fidanza flywheel has been done. Time to dust the helmet off and do some ground pounding.:thumbsup:

I'm gonna try to get some friends to video it for me. Talk is cheep. You need video and time slips to back yourself up. The only thing I'm going to do to the car today in preparation is put a new fuel filter in since the car has been sitting for 6 months. Then just lower the rear tire pressure to 25 psi.

Don't be afraid to go lower if you have problems hooking up all those newly awaken horses.
Best of luck and do the ZR-1s proud.

rick, hope you get this before you go .since your on street tires, you might really consider short shifting first to second around 5500-6000 . if you go to red line your liable to really spin the tires on that gear change . you can go as low as 20 lbs on the rear tires .
