Re: ZR-1 set up for autocross

A c4 zr-1 is far better suited for track days and hpde. Autocross, not so much. The advantage of the lt5 pans out on long straights or uphill corners. The long torque curve means less shifting and...

Re: A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the way to the Forum

The video audio was amped up 800x's. Any more and all you hear is the wind. Limitation of the GoPro. A remote firewall mic comes after car components.

Re: A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the way to the Forum

All mods are as previously described. I had tossaway centric rotors and hawk HP Plus pads. I did encounter minor brake fade towards the end of the session. A simple matter of rotor temperature. I...

Re: A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the way to the Forum

The Vredsteins were pretty good. Better than I had expected. They talked a good bit and a progressive bit between 5 and 10% slide. That helped immensely as I was learning to feel the slide in the...

Re: A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the way to the Forum

Oh, as far as the back straight goes, I short shifted to 4th as 3rd had too much torque for the esses. Too easy to make a mistake. Idea is to have a machine to bring back. Back straight speeds...

Re: A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the way to the Forum

Though now, I'm leaning towards hitting the drivetrain with a Fidanza single mass and 4.10's from Marc and a carolina stage3 clutch. And new wheel bearings so I can have working original ones in a...

Re: A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the way to the Forum

A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the way to the Forum

Anticipation boiled in my chest. Anxiety quivered my in my gloved hands as I gripped the wheel. The LT5 purred away as I awaited the signal from the flag bearer. The green flag unfurled, I hesitantly...

Re: Bit by the bug

Not only does the the c4 ZR1 still rock, it's the power curve that puts the c5 405HP z06 to shame. Let alone the 444HP ford Boss 302, 550HP gt500, 470HP charger SRT8, etc. Being able to hit peak...

Re: Bit by the bug

For some, the Z is just a piece of hardware much like a wrench or a door hinge. For those like me, born in 84, it was a dream. I was't interested in Testarossa's, or Countaches or Diablo's. It was...

Bit by the bug

When I bought my Z from Charley, I swore to myself that I would never abuse her. I swore I would only cruise her. I swore that I'd only enjoy her beauty and elegance on the street. I swore to myself...

Lone Soldier

I would post this on my regional board, but considering I live an hour away from the border of three of them, I figured the general board would be best. I was curious as to how many Z's there are out...

Re: New ZR-1 Owner

If I didn't buy it to drive it, I'd be a Liar. I did not put 500 miles on it in 4 days :dancing And absolutely did I not drive above 160 mph :cheers:
