Re: Zr-1 World record run video
This VW was in some way a purpose built car, but also a prototype.
If it would have failed, the Germans would have say that it just was a test! Typical for them, remember the same people are responsible for the diesel affair. On the other hand: when Tommy and his crew did the records with the ZR-1 the new cars were in the showrooms of the GM dealers. What would have happened to our ZR-1 if the car, running on the Fort Stockton circuit, would have failed?....................................... Franz

Re: Zr-1 World record run video
Nothing would have happened because just like it said in the video they didn't tell anyone they were doing it.

Re: Zr-1 World record run video
You don't believe that this would have happened. Too many would have knew about it (that, if, it didn't work). There is always somebody in such a situation who is the Judas!
