ZR-1 top end is hard to hang with.

You got that right Dom. But people will still try. You can make allot of cars fast off the line but 100mph and up our cars are in their element. That's where they dominant.

Nice kill story.
You're correct though, the top end charge is amazing.
Best one I have is at the drags with a 70 Camaro that was sandbagging me. He caught me at the 330 ft. mark and played the rest of the way down, putting a fender on me now and then. Problem was, he lost the fender about the 1000 ft mark and couldn't get it back. As most know, the 1000 mark is where these cars are in their zone, pulling like a freight train.

yep! As many C6Z06's as Ive drag raced against im always neck and neck with them down 3/4 of the way down the strip and even are ahead of them out of the hole but that last 100 feet of the 1/4 mile they come flying by me 20 miles an hour faster than me. At that point though its just a matter of hp. 357rwhp vs 435rwhp.

same reason you never roll race a big single turbo supra. You think lt5's have pull over 5k, try a gt4788 stroked 2j. When you can smack liter bikes around you know you have top end

Nice to murder a newer car eh? lol

smacked a gxrr1000 with my stock 90 @100

Don't forget we're talking about giving away nearly 1.7L. You just need to put intake and exhaust cams on that thing. It'll be a much closer race. And a
427 LT-5 will definitely be the equal of an LS-7.
