Took the 415 to Bandimere!!!!
We had a private track day for some of the Colorado guys up here in Denver yesterday and finally got some time to take the Zr1 for a few blasts down the track.
 Keep in mind that Bandimere is over a mile high in elevation so n/a track times in most cars are close to a second off from what sea level et's would be......lots of personal experience with that...lol!!! First pass I went a 12.0 and I was very happy with that since that would be a low 11 at lower elevation, but I wanted to try and bust into the elevens and the very next pass I popped an 11.7@115mph... My buddy only got my first pass on tape, but I'll scan my time slips. I really think there is an 11.60 or maybe an 11.50 in her yet......we'll see! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYkwHpMllc0 Ry |

Thanks for posting. Good looking Quasar Blue doing what QB's like to do.
Great numbers. It must be a blast to drive. Are you coming to BG this year? Jim |

Great times Ry!!
Whenever we go to CO, it feels like about 4 cylinders are dead. I took a boat to Twin Lakes one time & took forever to get it up on plane. Huge difference in performance at your altitude.

Re: Took the 415 to Bandimere!!!!
New ET streets helped, but I think hurt my mph a little. I left at about 4000 rpm and shift at 7000rpm on a factory clutch disc and Fidenza fly wheel that worked great!!

60' was sure good on your 11.7 pass, huh? Rod's a good guy. Cool your close to him.
