So how fast have you taken it?

[cuisinartvette]

After 2 yrs finally stumbled up the "perfect road", only had to drive 70 miles or so to find it. Long story short, myself in the 90 and a friend on his moddded R1 in front of me..

He backed off at 15x-ish due to some winds and was surprised to see the Z still in his sights.

Didnt feel a thing, car felt fantastic at that speed, coulda stayed there all day. Pulls as hard at 120 as it does at 80

Im hooked

There is no road in Alaska I would take any car to 150. There are some pretty long straight streches, but rough terrain on either side, not smooth enough, and lots of wild animals running around even in the cities. You hit a moose even at seventy and you are in serious trouble. A wolf at 100 toast! I'll keep it on the track or Drag Strip. No place here for that speed on the track either. I have driven a dragster 198.97 mph in 7.34 sec. 1/4 mile though. That was in the early 70's. They now do much better than that with Pro Stock!

145, limited by "track" conditions, and possible road force balancing anomalies.

Where does one get tires road force balanced and just plain balanced(!) for "life to begin" (in the Chicagoland area)?? (Discount Tire sold me my GY F1/D3s, but gives me the "deer in the headlights" look when I ask them about RFBing.)

"just" ~162mph at the Nellis Mile Shootout in Las Vegas.
Very smooth and felt safe with all the open room around me.

Hum, to stir up the pot, and talking about the Mile Shootout...
We are in the talking stages of another ZR-1 Gathering West.
Ron H. said there will be a mile shootout at Nellis AFB
the last weekend of Sept, 2008. It is a hoot! We would like
to organize a ZR-1 gathering around this event.

We realize that we have to sort out the safety requirements
first and earlier. But we also need attendance commitments
to make this worthwhile (and fun!).

We will keep you posted.

Excellent!

Next step: Find a stretch where I can test the results and see if the problem is solved!
