Re: Probably the coolest Zr-1 videos I've ever seen
You think that guy can drive? Obviously you have neverbeen in a car with a someone who knows how to drive. Don't get me wrong the video is fun to watch but how anyone who is doing or not doing what this guy is doing could get solo'd is amazing. Not one time does he match revs on any downshift, absolutely no heel & toe going at all. He is VERY fortunate he did not spin the car multiple times. I agree I enjoy watching and hearing the ZR-1 but as a driver this guy would go back for some serious instruction.

Re: Probably the coolest Zr-1 videos I've ever seen
No argument there. Track days are available just about everywhere. My post did not come out the way it should have. I do not want to be critical and it did look that way after I read it. I really enjoyed the video and nothing is better than watching a corvette go by a bunch of german corvairs. I guess my point is if you have been to the track you will soon find out that driving is THEmost important ingrediant in going fast. A student that I had at my last track day was in a o5 CTS-V. In front of us was a new GT-3 with all the goodies. He made a comment that the GT-3 would leave him for dead. this was an intermediate student. In two laps we passed the GT-3 and lapped him before the session was concluded in 20 minutes. I had been lucky enough to have some really good people teach me some good techniques and I love nothing better than to share what I have learned with others. I love my Zr-1 and my racecar and nothing better than sticking it to more expensive modern so called supercars. However , and not to be critical I would not use that video as a instructing tool. I am truly surprised by what they allow at the venue for passing. That would not fly in the STATES. I love the sound and power the ZR-1 in the video is demonstrating. Pretty cool and please accept my apologies if I offended anyone.

Re: Probably the coolest Zr-1 videos I've ever seen
MGG no need for an apology I think your points are well put and constructive.
The vid is really KOOL and does show off the KOTH well even with a less than perfect driver. Just goes to show the ZR-1 can still rip even with a less than perfect driver.
