Re: 190mph
Hello from Switzerland,
I have to tell you, that I do not like to see videos like this (information for links) on this webpage, because it is not a Lambo-page! Any well prepared ZR-1 can do the same or even more. To go fast for one lap or in this case one or two fast straights is nothing compared to the record run of the ZR-1 in 1990. The ZR-1 was very fast (196 mph during the practice sessions with John Heinricy at the wheel), but the magic word is endurance, and I think that there is no Lambo to do this! I know owners of Lambos, but nobody of them would drive his car this way for hours. So I am proud to own a ZR-1 and not one these Italian "supercars", and there is no difference, whether it is a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. Maybe some of you do not like to read these words, but this is my opinion an nobody of you should think that European sports cars are so much better than a Corvette or a Viper.(Sorry for my English, I would be able to express my thoughts and my opinion in German much better). PS. and never forget the Callaway Slegdehammer with a top speed of 254 mph. It is not a ZR-1, but a C4 too. Have a good time ZR-1 Franz from Switzerland, '90 ZR-1 # 982 |

Sorry, but I meant Sledgehammer and not Slegdehammer!
