Re: ZR-1 facts?
Russell,
If u want to consider any “production” vehicle, the ZR-1 still holds the record. |

Re: ZR-1 facts?
I thought that was the case regarding (mass produced, production vehicle) but needed confirmation. I didn’t want to claim something that wasn’t true.
Does that mean current model cars that are capable of higher top speeds have not been put the same test for the record ? |

Re: ZR-1 facts?
It is argued that the VW that broke the record was not a true production car and was purpose built to break the record. Only one was built. It only broke the 24hr records not the longer ones. To my knowledge there has been no attempt to break the records since.
Here another interesting thread in the subject. H https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...e-history.html Last edited by Ccmano; 08-25-2018 at 07:49 PM. |
