Re: This is neat
The article is unsigned but "Jim" is mentioned, so my guess is Jim Ingle wrote it.
He has a real wealth of ZR-1 development information and shared some at the 2009 NCM ZR-1 gathering in May.

Re: This is neat
Interesting:
"...Well just as I got into the first part of the S, probably about 60 mph and 4000 rpm, something broke, the engine stalled, and the power steering assist went away! ... ...pushed the car into the garage and found the timing chain for one of the cams had broken." Kinda funny that what happened to my ZR-1, also happened to one of the first ZR-1's ever built! .
