lm just a newbie ZR1 kid at 51 this 11th october and was wondering how old is the oldest driving member of the registry
and who ever it is.....he or she should get some kudos.....a special award :occasion1
One things for sure...lve got ''the'' ZR1 bug (sorry but the new one is just a Z06 with a blown lump) and lm going to be ilegally driving mine even after they pull my drivers licence.....hell! l might even get cremated in a ZR1 when l die!

I just turned 50 in August so you have me by a year.
We have a number of members who are of retirement age but we know better than to bug em about it!
After all they are the "elders" here and many of them bought their ZR-1's brand new back in the glory dayz!!!
No matter what the age we are all still "brothers of the beast" here at the Zoo!

well bugged or not.....be old and be bold.....and who ever you are be proud to say lm over the hill....but still driving the 'king of the hill'
You're only over the hill when you quit making the effort to succeed at your endeavors and start coasting. Has nothing to do with age. As such, I seriously doubt if you're ever going to find a ZR-1 driver that's "over the hill."

I'm probably a good contender for the old guy title. :-D
Got my 1st ZR-1 (a '91) in '92 and am now the owner of BEAST2, my 3rd and probably last ZR1. I celebrated my 75th birthday August 24, of this year strapped in the navigators seat of a friend's 2006 Z06 doing the Pony Express 130 (mile) Open Road Race in the 155 mph average speed group. We had a "tech" limit of 172 mph and finished the 130 miles with an average speed time of 50 minutes, 18.028 seconds, only 334 thousandths of a second behind Ted Zaleski who took 1st place in his '90 ZR-1!

My children and grand children now have another tale to tell about the old head of the family. Corvettes keep me young and I don't intend to ever grow old! :occasion1

Thanks for all the nice comments about my "old man" adventures. Other than wishing to make it into the "200mph" ORR club B/4 my 80th birthday my next most important wish is that ALL of you enjoy your Vette ownership years to the fullest possible extent for many years into the future.:icon_thum :iroc:
