Yes, it's great to watch the C-4 racing. Interesting some of the names in the first race. Thank you for posting.

I think we have a new line for the ZR-1.

Thanks Lee. What a great post. Just loved seeing the video with the press driving the zr1's through france. When I was hearing all those journalist heaving praises on the zr1 it is exactly as I remember it when one rich club member went out and paid top top dollar for probably the first one in miami and brought it straight to a club autocross event. I could not even get close enough to see it. as soon as I thought I would have a chance to look closely at the car, it was wisked away for another guest ride etc.... this car was mythical and unattainable for me back in 1990 and never dared to ask a zr1 owner for a ride to just feel how well it rode.

this is the reason that I have always wanted to own the zr1. it is more than a car, it is a legend. Legends never die.

Caitlin looked great

she had balls back then. But in the end she drove like a putz.

Thanks for posting Lee. This is awesome. I watched the end and can't wait to watch a little Corvette Challenge action later.

Man, I love listening to the LT5 howl!

Ed summed it up for me.
