Thought some might be interested in this. It was an event/gathering in Limerock Connecticut circa 1998.
There was an unfortunate incident but till that time the ZR-1 simply wiped up all comers on the straight. It was so thrilling to see it walk by all other cars there :dancing

It was indeed. As with many things nowadays I found these while looking for something else in my pics. There were not that many digital cameras back then but I had one. At the time the resolution was thought adequate. By today's standards it's ridiculously low :neutral:

Pretty cool. Looked like a bad wreck between 2 of the cars in the one shot. Everyone get out all right?

It was a single car pile-up.
Actually the LT5 threw rod as I remember.
Oil went spewing on the headers and caught fire.

Oh, that's good then. No injuries and it wasn't the end of the car, although it looked toasted:wink:.
