If I had no idea what a ZR-1 was, and I was to go back and read this thread in its entirety, I would conclude that the ZR-1 serves one primary purpose: a 1/4 mile drag car. Virtually every poster mentions, above all else, 1/4 mile time, rpm, etc. Granted, I was curious as to whether any back-to-back acceleration comparisons had been done with the 2 gearsets, but I didn't change gears to ensure that I went through the trap at a specific rpm. That's just me, though.
Not saying there's anything wrong with it at all; I'm just kind of surprised that rpm in gears seems to be the most important factor in a potential gear swap. Just my observation.
Have a great holiday weekend, all!
