Yes, it's great to watch the C-4 racing. Interesting some of the names in the first race. Thank you for posting.

I think we have a new line for the ZR-1.

Thanks Lee. What a great post. Just loved seeing the video with the press driving the zr1's through france. When I was hearing all those journalist heaving praises on the zr1 it is exactly as I remember it when one rich club member went out and paid top top dollar for probably the first one in miami and brought it straight to a club autocross event. I could not even get close enough to see it. as soon as I thought I would have a chance to look closely at the car, it was wisked away for another guest ride etc.... this car was mythical and unattainable for me back in 1990 and never dared to ask a zr1 owner for a ride to just feel how well it rode.
this is the reason that I have always wanted to own the zr1. it is more than a car, it is a legend. Legends never die.

Caitlin looked great ;) she had balls back then. But in the end she drove like a putz.

Thanks for that vid Lee . I never saw it before either . I raced against a few of those guys in the Players Series here in Canada and also the Escort Endurance Series in a C4 ...
The ZR-1 footage at the end was just amazing . Did you see how the Z stopped so friggin fast on a wet turn ! Wow ... What a machine ...

Thanks for posting Lee. This is awesome. I watched the end and can't wait to watch a little Corvette Challenge action later.
Man, I love listening to the LT5 howl!
Ed summed it up for me.

Lee,
Thanks for posting.... I did see #27 in there for a fraction of a second in the beginning of the video (photo attached). That was the last race for the car in the Corvette Challenge Series.
It looks much better today and just had its new fuel cell installed a few hours ago. There's still a long list of things to do before it can get back on the track.
Regards,
Mark

Great job on the resto of #27 . It was quite damaged but when I saw it at bowling , I never knew it had crashed .
