Re: ZR-1: Front Page!
A friend just gave me a copy of the magazine this evening. The ZR-1 article,written by Csaba Csere, is very well written and accurate. Csaba tested the original ZR-1 for Car and Driver and knew very well what he was writing about. Very complimentary of our cars and especially Graham's/Lingenfelter's 3rd gen LT5. He said what we all already know - the car feels very quick even by modern standards! Best ZR-1 article in many years!

Re: ZR-1: Front Page!
What I would love to see is an article about how a small community of enthusiasts has continued to do the development of the motor that GM abandoned. Let's have Csaba Csere drive a few of the Haibeck or Polatsidis modified vehicles. What would he say about a 5.7L motor w the horsepower of a 7L LS-7?
As very impressive as the engineering and packaging of the LSx and LT series of motors is, what would the LT5 be like with 20+ years of additional development. Maybe we are about to find out.

Re: ZR-1: Front Page!
I'd love to read it if you have a few minutes to scan the article. The pics on the stingray forum are low res and in some cases upside down.
