Re: Top Speed runs in your Z
I couldn't have lifted at 179. I would've had to wait for 180 to pop up. Regardless...nice run, Bro.

Revs is what the ZR-1 is famous for..... low end torque? Notsomuch. Well, happy 1st and 2nd gear to ya. For me, just 173mph. The usual excuses, public road, brand new car, son in the passenger seat. The real reason? Top end is very scary, and sustained top end gives you way to much time to think about it.

Still, I don't mind being laughed at for not hitting triple digits on public roads its just too irresponsible for my taste and proves no serious point.

Re: Top Speed runs in your Z
Yup, kissing would not be on the menu. That is like driving under 100. And just reving her engine would not be fun either. But then triple digits is not for everyone on a public road with no one else on it and a speed limit of "Reasonable and prudent" like Montana.
