@lHustonProductionsl God you're dumb. Can you read and understand English? I'm saying although you are correct you know nothing about cars and your immature explanation of awd being for rich idiots is what I was correcting you on. Fagzilla? You really must be a teenager because there is no way an adult is this stupid. You're trying to take what I said about you and turn it on me? lmao! You were telling someone to stop suckin dick do you know them? You've only succeeded in hypocrisy....Idiot
@lHustonProductionsl You are really that stupid aren't you? If you reread what I said I was agreeing with you but further elaborating on the actual reason for drag racers preferring RWD > AWD. You say amateurs use AWD or rich idiots. That in itself makes you look stupid. As far as a cure for stupidity I've heard if you can find the source there actually is a cure. Might want to mail in a blood sample. Also "So you cock off to me" See what I'm saying about borderline homosexual. Someones ashamed.
@lHustonProductionsl All I could get from this statement is that you're borderline homosexual and can only think about other people being gay. Stop the denial and come out already. Secondly in an acceleration race like a 1/4 drag it is beneficial to have RWD because it's easier on the motor to push the car than pull it. This brings in inertia.(Objects in motion stay in motion) What you stated made barely any sense and was pretty much your opinion on how being gay makes rwd > awd. Congratulations
kinda weird it was only 10.90 since a stock zr1 with drag radials ran a 10.98 @ 131. 87. I'm hennessey probably has a 1,000 plus zr1 already be now tho :)
@lHustonProductionsl please, re-read my comment carefully before you say anything lol! I said "I don;t see race drivers complaining about more stability" AKA talking about better technology in race cars especially F1 cars. Not "race drivers drive AWD" fucking tool. Damn, are you that stupid? Arguing with you is like arguing with a retarded teenager. KTHXBAI
@lHustonProductionsl explain how driving more stable is like a pussy you uneducated fuck lol...stop with the incoherent comments, you're embarrassing yourself sir. I don't see race drivers complaining about more stability, when it comes down to racing, you're gonna need the best the car can give. Dumb ass, go argue with people on your level of intelligence*aka dumb asses.
@lHustonProductionsl awd is the smarter way for cars in the modern day dumbass, just jealous cuz GTR can drive in any weather condition and 4 extra seats. unless yo want to stay in the middle ages dumbass. Its like complaining to NASA with ROCKETS winning against a wooden airplane, you rather go to space and explore or stay with the old technology and fuckin stay on earth.
@xDetroitMetalx No it's called being a slow reaction driver. I go to the strip every Friday i think i know what i'm talking about. Test and Tune?! Thats what he's doing but "test and tune" has nothing to do with his slow reaction time.
@M1c4hR1 during a true test and tune reaction time is the last thing to worry about. If you're trying to post a World's First you want to make sure revs, boost and launch is perfect. This is only a race against the driver no one else, therefore, cutting a light won't matter to the end result. You'll be worried about reaction times at Test and Tune for fun, practice or gaining a class license. Don't lecture me on cutting good lights as my average is .0XXX on a street car.
@M1c4hR1 Good job at telling everyone you have never been to a drag strip.
You can sit at the tree for an hour if you want, and it does NOT effect the E.T. Only once you trip the beams, by moving, does it start counting your time. Reaction time has absolutely nothing to do with the time of the actual run. Just there to show your reaction, mainly for grudge matches. Not testing to purely see what the car will do.
If you actually DID go to the strip every Friday, you'd have a clue about it.
@M1c4hR1 Yeah, and I'M the stupid one. Says the kid who doesn't know that the time at a drag strip doesn't start UNTIL you MOVE to trip the beams. LOL! You're an idiot....
Reaction time DOES NOT have ANYTHING at ALL to do with the time of the run. Maybe one day when you actually go to a track, you'll learn that. Good job at trying to play it off though.
Would all of you shut up about an "AWD Porche" this is a ZR1 with one hell of an engine and time backing it up, it would not only beat the "AWD Porche" but blow it's doors off so hard that even the car next to that would get it's doors ripped off in the process, my proof, Nueremberg (or however you spell it) one question who owns the track record??? it's a STOCK! Corvette ZR-1 this on the other hand is faaaaaaaar more vicious do not be fooled, VERY few cars ever hit 10sec on the 1/4 mile.
@gallardowilliam well the viper was beating the vette for a fair while on nurburgring. only till this year corvette had another shot. And now the corvette is in front. Viper was also beating the gay porsche. But no, porsche had to go and be more gay and set another time. Now both corvette and viper (i love) are getting beat by some yuppy eauropean dumb expensive stupid gay porsche ( i hate)
it all honestly, this thing would keel over and die if it had to go up against the porsche gt2 rs... it doesnt have a hope in hell.. but if we are talking about performance for price.. meh.. i hate to say this bc i despise nissan gtr's with a great compassion... but stick with those pos skylines...
I don't think the time started when it turned green. I know some track times start when u launch no matter how long the light is green if not mistaken
It's fast but why are they saying this is the fastest ZR-1? There are STOCK ZR-1's running high 10's on stock tires, and mid-high 10's on slicks (yes, youtube vids posted, go to Corvetteforums . com to see). The LPE tuned pullied ZR-1 ran a 10.00 1/4 (also on you tube)
too all vette fans here is the reality--- did you hear the news about gm had to stop production? gm car company had to stop its factory from production for a week because it couldn't parts from japan.high quality parts but one or more parts from Japan? so much for your #1 in your little world. there are good high chances that your gm car parts were probably from japan and if you don't like japan please rip your gm parts out from your car now
All of these supercars you are arguing about are made to drive around a road course, hence the nurburgring testing, and they just happen to be fast too. They all have their differences in the way they handle and its all about preference. With the cars being only within a few seconds of eachother on a given track, the only one that is going to benefit from the faster are those who know what they're doing...
THIS IS A HUGE WASTE of MONEY. A 2012 GTR does 10.90 1/4 mile for $89.995 BONE STOCK on the STREET not a GLUE PREPPED DRAG STRIP.
A Porsche 911 Turbo S PDK does 2.6 0-60 and 10.70 1/4 mile BONE STOCK.
ZR1's performance doesn't match its price. THE FAR cheaper 2012 GTR and ACR SMASHED the ZR1 at the ring. The ZR1 should cost about $70,000 since the ACR and GTR cost about 90-99k.
@Sal30 Glue prepped drag strip? So now tracks are putting glue on the asphalt huh? Thats a smart comment. 911 Turbo and GT-R do NOT run sub 11 1/4 mile times stock. Your only about a second too low on both cars. I also counted GT-R runs at Nürburgring and 4 were slower and the fastest one was run on a wet track and its was about 3 seconds faster than the other GT-R times, I really believe that. Don't forget that both cars split torch 50/50. The ACR also has 1000 pounds of downforce.
@Sal30 10.90? LOL!!! Thats a fuckin load of shit. Infact the best time so far hasent even broke the 11s. Then you talk about price when the 2011 'Z06' just wiped its ass with the Turbo S at Laguna seca and costs half the price. The Corvette is a track weapon... not a drag car.
@Sal30 who cares the GT-R has so many driver aids it can make anyone's Grandma look like the next Schumacher. The ZR1 is a true drivers car it takes talent to drive a 650hp RWD car with little electronics support and a proper manual transmission. There's a new video out with a 9.93 bone stock ZR1 1/4 Mile pass and yes it does take a sticky drag surface to put these times down but that time still smashes most supercars on the market
@Sal30 thye had much better tires the zr1 has run a new time of 7.22 with shity run flats the gtr and acr had the sport piliot comitition tires that makes a huge diffrence and gtr dude the zr1 mops the floor with it
classic bla bla bla about porsche's super launches, GTR's whatever godzilenness and supra's hissessness. whatever. this car is for man that can i frikin wants to drive on the blade, and all those pussyass toys r for boys who prefer to eat icecream with a huge spoon not to spil some juice on expensive shoes. cheap plastic power baby! :D only sound of battling corvette makes girls get an orgazm!

Not bad, but has serious issues. I'd say only 70% of the power is used efficiently. Would be smoother, faster and easier to drive with a 6 speed automatic + launch control. This car could possibly go up to 1 second faster...
@bronxboyXXX Do you see how old this video is? Also, there are stock ZR1's that have gone quicker and faster than this. Altitude, track conditions AND driver make a BIG difference.
@dubspins before you get your panties all twisted, it's the hood, splitter, rocker panels and roof that are carbon..there are still fibreglass panels on it..the Z06 still uses fibreglass panels aswell ( and carbon fibre) and the base and gransport use fibreglass..thanks for your input though
I keep seeing this crap about Stock ZR1's doing 10.7? Where is the OFFICIAL proof youtube and someone saying it's stock is not proof! No one can prove it's stock, so accepting it and telling the whole world it's stock with no proof is something only Americans do! Porsches new Turbo has been proven by the Media to do 10 1/4 the ZR1 has not!!! AMERICANS GROW THE FUCK UP!!!
@sw1000xg It takes some nasty skill to run low 11's high 10's in an rwd monster, why have magazines been able to run 10s in the new Turbo's but not say a Viper? Skill, not to mention they don't run on prepped drag strips like these runs where made on.
@stupidlambo Strange how the vid you're talking about has never been confirmed by Corvette or in any official medium!!! One person says it's stock and Americans need to believe it's true!!! How does anyone know it's stock? you don't...
I hate to be one of those guys but...its a sad day where a 700hp modified ZR1 sets the world record a full .1 of a second slower than a 530hp stock Turbo S. I'm not by any means dissing the Corvette, breaking into the 10's is incredible with bolt ons and with street tires at that, but it just shows how high the bar is being set these days.
@AEspositoProductions Dude, the Porsche is AWD. It's so much easier to launch. If the vette driver does the same thing the S driver does he'll just melt his tires. Four wheel drive will beat two wheel drive in a short range drag any day, thats physics. On a highway doing a rolling start the Porsche doesn't stand a chance. The 700 hp the vette has doesn't become an asset until he's about at the finish of the 1/4 mile, he's fighting it the first 7 seconds.
@Sahadi420 The porsche is easier to drive in that it doesnt take near as much skill, but GM is fixing that with PTM and Launch control. Justing Bell (GT2 champ) improved his lap time by just over .5seconds useing PTM versus having the nannys turned off. not to mention the Zr1 was nearly 4 seconds faster per lap than the 911 Turbo.......The only thing the porsche does better is traction out of the hole, which is key in a short distance sprint.
@mazda6tuner99 no,no i call you that based on your comments and well for that you are a complete dumbass to mention a stang on a vette vid,who the fuck still does up,12 year old and than you have a nerve to have mazda in your name and you bitch about a stang
@mazda6tuner99 i guess its true that most stang lovers have an IQ of like -20,when i said sir i was being smart but i guess you didnt comprehend huh,what a clown,people like you make America look bad
to the fuck heads talkin bout how the porche is better...1st y da fuk r u even lookin at a vette vid 2nd its the fukin hennesey edition there is no fuckin way the lil piece of shit porche is gonna do anythin 2 da vette
For you scared porsche fans, corvette handles better in the corners than 911s. I think it's a 150lbs of sand needed in the front end of a 911 too keep it from getting squirrely in long fast corners. Porsche has all ways had a problem with that, and now their zippyness won't save them from getting eaten on the track!
@chillpickle420 bullshit. on top gear they did a segment on that. did u know u can pop the vettes rear bumper in and out. its made like a fucking plastic cup. watch it on top gears channel.
@rockerouter9 its carbon fiber dumb shit. Has the rigidity of titanium and weight of paper. Learn something that is actually better than fiberglass what every cars body panels are. Wanna be safe on the road drive a truck =p
@IsicanA7X It's actually fibre GLASS on the rear not carbon fibre? CF is on various PARTS of the car like the fenders roof bonnet inside sills... and fenders!!! It's 3X stronger than steal not stronger than titanium!!! But Zonda are actually making Carbon Titanium...
@rockerouter9 never listen to top gear when it comes to vettes, or most things american, its obviously biased. Other than that I love the show though.
@Evan12345678 and fibreglass is to plastic what carbon fibre is to fibreglass..make it cheap? no..notice how i used plastic in quotations..meaning it's not a garbage model car quality plastic..i noticed i put similar to fibreglass though..i meant it is fibreglass..not sure why i put that
there almost there,but it still won't pass a Japanese QC check,I hope they tighten up the body panel attachment points.Anybody within GM that says,its the best we could do,should find a new job.
hmm, ZR1 need a Hennessey upgrade (Tuning) to do a 10.9? The bonestock small 997 Turbo (500hp) is faster than this, 10.8s and the 530hp Turbo S does high 9s with Slicks (stock) and 10s flat with stock tyres
@druide106 the 997 is all wheel drive which is HUGE in quarter mile, 0-60 and whatever else, launch the porche at 4k or whatevers best for it that is, the corvettes probly 1500-1700rpm idk i cant afford either of them so i cant say anything bad about them just sayin....
@druide106 holy shit your a faggot who knows nothing dont talk modified fucken cars lingenfelter c6 z06 twin turbo, 0-60- 1.7 quarter-7.9 0-100 4.3 0-200 18.3 skid pad 1.1g top speed over 300, 1300 hp, mile 25.1.... and its not a porsche so guess what it has torque. lol and doesnt oversteer, thats cheaper than any modified porsche in america mother fucker. literally your an ignorant faggot. shut the fuck up
@druide106 Please do show me a stock 997 Turbo running 10's. I haven't seen one yet. Though Ranger and a few others have put the ZR1 in 10.7 -10.8 range bone stock, with no launch control
@iPROFITDON visit carsinaction bud!! the small 500hp version was tested with 10.8s @1/4 mile and 3.1s 0-100km/h (~3.0s 0-60mph) the small turbo was tested even in Estoril (portugal).
do not forget, the Porsche does that with 147hp / 109NM less than a ZR1, with a 40% smaller engine!! and it does the same performance!!
the Turbo S can do mor than a small Turbo version, even tested in estoril.
@druide106 I wanted a video, I wasn't disagreeing with you, those new turbo's are fast as hell, I just wanted to see one run a 10. It's upsetting to me that they are that much quicker yet still slower around just about every track.
do not forget the Porsche is running that PDK as well as AWD and a sickening launch control to run that. Engine size is easily made up with boost.
@iPROFITDON Tracktimes are different, different drivers, different conditions make a huge difference.
There are a vie Estorilvideos here on youtube, for other videos the 2010 PDK Porsches are a bit to new, this times were tested by magazines and official runs on tracks.
watch?v=W-6JUvqhLK8
(its only the 500hp version)
Yeah, Porsche do that with Turbos and ZR1 with a supercharger, both work with boost but right, the PDK are super quick!!! AWD is good, but weight more!
@druide106 your right they are different, yet still overall the ZR1 is faster at every track, or at least every I've seen so far.
There again that sick launch control, mixed with AWD and a ultra fast shifting PDK makes that thing a monster off the line. From what I see the PDK Turbo s is only 50lbs heavier than the ZR1. I'd buy a Turbo S before ZR1 for daily driving no doubt. But 10.7's RWD with no TC is more impressive than 10.7's with LC, TC, and AWD.
@iPROFITDON look at the drivers mate, in germany the ringtime from the 997 Turbo was driven from a newspaperreporter!! As a example, Mero (ZR1) have the experiances of more than 1500 rounds on the Nürburgring, thats more than the moste prodriver!
impressive? but it's a car with more than 700hp and tuned too, the Turbo 911 does it with 200hp less, don't understand me wrong but this is what i mean with efficiency ;)
Yeah, the S is a bit heavier, but look into this car, Airbags, nice leather ..
@druide106 I wasn't speaking of just the ring time, the two have been tested and the ZR1 was faster, look up some lap times if you can find them and compare if you wish.
More than 700hp? This video is sad, ZR1's have run 10.7's bone stock, LPE ran high 9's with this same power level. If you want to call all the advantages the TurboS has when it comes to the 1/4 mile efficiency ok. As far as the S, 20lbs doesn't mean much, you speak like the ZR1 has none.
@iPROFITDON yeah, we talk about stock cars, this one here is 705hp!!, tuning is a different story bud, tuned ZR1 vs Tuned Porsche (9ff, Ruf or something)...
And i say a bonestock Turbo (500hp) runs 10.8s proved ;) the 530hp version is faster.
For me, a car is a package, interior, performance, quality and so on and the Porsche have the better package in my opinion.
a 0.1s difference on the mile, you can't feel it on the regular traffic i think.
@druide106 Oh there is no arguing the Porsche has a better fit and finish, shit its Porsche, they build their cars aesthetically to a higher level. This vette here was one of the first ones modded, people have ran faster now bone stock, this isn't a good example lol. Even on a track I don't think 30hp will make it faster, but in the 1/4 it more than likely will be
Like I said, I'd much rather buy a one of these turbos than a ZR1 for daily driving.
@druide106 Very true, but an AWD porche is much easier to drive fast around a track than a ZR1, so the porche easily has the advantage yet still gets out performed for much less cost. The fact that it beats the vette in the 1/4 with less power only shows that it has better traction. Tracktimes are a much better measurement of a supercar.
@stupidbikerboy the porche dosen't nessasarily have better traction the vette is a wide car with fat tires and the porche is a slimmer car wide cars handle better and vettes are way cheaper
@cameronspeed Trust me, getting that much power down around a track is MUCH easier with AWD than RWD. Trying to drive a 630 hp RWD vette around a track fast is like trying to walk a tight rope, its one serious balancing act and most of the time you'll find yourself steering with the rear. Driving an AWD porche fast around a track is more of a point and shoot deal. MUCH easier to accomplish with respectable results. You are right about a wide car, but its nowhere near outweighs AWD. :)
@stupidbikerboy Ugh what? Not a single Porsche can take the ZR1 in the 1/4 mile. Even the GT2 is rated two tenths of a second slower in the 1/4 mile. The GT2 beats the ZR1 on the ring, but the GT2 was also made for circuit racing. I can only assume you think the Porsche has a better 1/4 mile time because of that crappy ukautoblog show.
@TiKondaRoga Im not sure what comment you are replying to, but the only one I can find refering to the 1/4 was actually a response to a comment about a moddified porsche with less HP than the ZR1. I know what the factory specs are, considering they can easily be googled. All my other comments were in reference to road course not drag racing. I'd take the ZR1 over the porsche anyday. I road race against porsches all the time and very few have impressed me, especially considering the cost.
@stupidbikerboy My bad, I didn't notice the other posts. I agree, I've been beat by plenty of Porsche but I've only raced one that actually impressed me, but taking over all cost into consideration it still wasn't anything to brag about.
@TheNak88 I agree. The vette is a real drivers car. It takes skill to drive 632 RWD HP fast, any idiot can press the gas on an AWD porsche and go fast. It gets proven every time the local porsche club comes to our SCCA meets lol. The highway is just a HP battle nothing else. Doesnt take much skill to accelerate from 60+, and yes the ZR1 vette would absolutely destroy the porsche with pretty much anyone driving. From a dead stop you better know what your doing though against AWD
@iPROFITDON FFS Ranger is a 25 year mechainc!!! STOCK where is the proof what because he says so? So then how come no other motoring medium in the WHOLE world even America has done 10 1/4? Even the new PTM ZR1 did 11.5 on R&T just because someone says it's stock Americans are so desperate to believe they see it and that's it anything anyone says is a ZR1 hater... It's rather sad to think like that!!!
@sw1000xg Ranger isn't the only one to run 10's in a stock ZR1, there have been quite a few, Its understandable for one to not believe it, but do ya have proof otherwise? R&T and C&D consistently put up embarrassing numbers for most cars, they can be used for a benchmark but by no means the max a car can run, They ran even slower in an 08 viper, what an 11.6 if I remember correctly, Dallas perf. has confirmed that 10.9 in a stock viper.
@iPROFITDON Well if they keep putting up embarrassing numbers and even a hennessey ZR1 can just break into the 10's something is wrong some where and it's not the official reviews, because they do it all the time! So Hennessey can't do it official reviewers can't do it but by magic unofficial it can... youtube and dragtimes if not proof!!! because anyone can change something like take out the A/C or the catalytic converter or but better fuel/direct injectors in and say it's stock!!!
@sw1000xg Take out the cats in most cases will have you loosing a few HP just so you know. But Lingenfelter ran what, a 9.8? With about the same hp level. I won't say how I truly feel about hennessey's builds on their videos out of respect but like I said if you don't want to believe it, don't. You say dragtimes isn't proof? Really? There are 5 stock ZR1's in the 10's up there. You seem like the type that won't believe unless you can run an inspection on the car yourself and still not believe
@iPROFITDON Dragtimes does not count because who can prove them wrong this is the big problem with Americans you see it on one or two site UNOFFICIALLY and that's it that's your proof! No official motoring journalist or reviewer has pulled 10's even a modded ZR1 just did it! So then how did stock ZR1 do 10 1/4 when officially reviewed ZR1's DID NOT!!! Something is defo wrong with the unofficial times...
@sw1000xg I'm lost as to why you jump to the conclusion that I'm American, I'm Irish kid. Listen, I've yet to see a magazine run a ZR1..or any car for that mater down an actually sticky drag strip now have you. Do you know the difference in grip between a strip and a old concrete runway? I don't feel like arguing with you though, its obvoiusly not going to change how you feel so there isn't much point huh.
@iPROFITDON I don't want to argue! I love the ZR1 but it's BS claims from no official source what so ever that the ZR1 has done 10 1/4 THAT'S IT! If one just one has done it then case closed I will accept it! But spouting 10.7 10.7 10.7 10.7 just from one unofficial source makes me mad! If it was that fast then someone in the world reviewing it would have cracked but they have not unlike the 997.2 Turbo which has been proven to do 10 1/4 no one can argue!!!
@sw1000xg Again your missing the whole drag strip thing. And PDK Turbo will dead hook on concrete with its AWD and launch control doesn't take any real skill to get everything out of it. A ZR1 will not. Look at C&D's run, they launch like shit and shift like my mother, then watch someone that can actually drive. Remember Ranger isn't the only one to do so. You saying his Z06 runs where false as well?
@iPROFITDON I'm wasting my times Ranger is a 25 years mechinc the Z06 drag radial tyres are NOT STOCK!!! So then how is that then a stock car? It's not!!! An SLR can burn a Z06 all day long to any speed but that STILL cannot do 10 1/4 so you're saying a Z06 is faster than an SLR this is the stupid crap I read all the time from people who just won't accept that the ZR1/Z06 are being driven unofficially with magic times when no-one else can proven this at all!!!
@iPROFITDON Ranger STATES Stock Z06 but drag radials are not stock! So what if he chooses to say something else is stock when it clearly is not! See what I mean? A Mclaren F1 can bearly tap into 10 1/4 so you're trying to tell me the Z06 and ZR1 are faster than a Mclaren F1 when that car to EVERY single speed will kill both? If you are then I am done because it's nonesense to say a Corvette is faster than the worlds best car!!!
@sw1000xg its too bad that asshole you were arguing with ruins and disrespects the zr1's that he "loves" just to try and make other comment viewers laugh. but you have to realize that a 1/4 is not an accurate test for a super car. super cars arent even made to do 1/4. the fact that the porsche can do it in 10 is great congrats porsche but its only a measure of off the line grip, which doesnt really matter in super cars because they are meant for going around a track. im not trying to argue.....
Since this video was made though, Ranger took a STONE STOCK Zr1 to a 10.74 @ 132 on stock tires.. but when this was made, they likely were the fastest.
lol, it needs no expert pro tuner 2 do this our corvette has a bit bout 715 hp with stock Tires, Handmade Compressor and other stuff, i wish i could see Hennesey face when we hit the record :D
Nothing to see here when you have mustang GT's running mid 10's fail

@xDetroitMetalx No it's called being a slow reaction driver. I go to the strip every Friday i think i know what i'm talking about. Test and Tune?! Thats what he's doing but "test and tune" has nothing to do with his slow reaction time.
M1c4hR1 6 months ago
@M1c4hR1 during a true test and tune reaction time is the last thing to worry about. If you're trying to post a World's First you want to make sure revs, boost and launch is perfect. This is only a race against the driver no one else, therefore, cutting a light won't matter to the end result. You'll be worried about reaction times at Test and Tune for fun, practice or gaining a class license. Don't lecture me on cutting good lights as my average is .0XXX on a street car.
xDetroitMetalx 6 months ago
@M1c4hR1 Good job at telling everyone you have never been to a drag strip.
You can sit at the tree for an hour if you want, and it does NOT effect the E.T. Only once you trip the beams, by moving, does it start counting your time. Reaction time has absolutely nothing to do with the time of the actual run. Just there to show your reaction, mainly for grudge matches. Not testing to purely see what the car will do.
If you actually DID go to the strip every Friday, you'd have a clue about it.

All of these supercars you are arguing about are made to drive around a road course, hence the nurburgring testing, and they just happen to be fast too.

With the cars being only within a few seconds of eachother on a given track, the only one that is going to benefit from the faster are those who know what they're doing...

THIS IS A HUGE WASTE of MONEY. A 2012 GTR does 10.90 1/4 mile for $89.995 BONE STOCK on the STREET not a GLUE PREPPED DRAG STRIP.
A Porsche 911 Turbo S PDK does 2.6 0-60 and 10.70 1/4 mile BONE STOCK.
ZR1's performance doesn't match its price. THE FAR cheaper 2012 GTR and ACR SMASHED the ZR1 at the ring. The ZR1 should cost about $70,000 since the ACR and GTR cost about 90-99k.

@Sal30 Glue prepped drag strip? So now tracks are putting glue on the asphalt huh? Thats a smart comment. 911 Turbo and GT-R do NOT run sub 11 1/4 mile times stock. Your only about a second too low on both cars. I also counted GT-R runs at Nürburgring and 4 were slower and the fastest one was run on a wet track and its was about 3 seconds faster than the other GT-R times, I really believe that. Don't forget that both cars split torch 50/50. The ACR also has 1000 pounds of downforce.

There's a new video out with a 9.93 bone stock ZR1 1/4 Mile pass and yes it does take a sticky drag surface to put these times down but that time still smashes most supercars on the market

p10ghost 1 year ago
@AEspositoProductions Dude, the Porsche is AWD. It's so much easier to launch. If the vette driver does the same thing the S driver does he'll just melt his tires. Four wheel drive will beat two wheel drive in a short range drag any day, thats physics. On a highway doing a rolling start the Porsche doesn't stand a chance. The 700 hp the vette has doesn't become an asset until he's about at the finish of the 1/4 mile, he's fighting it the first 7 seconds.

@Sahadi420 The porsche is easier to drive in that it doesnt take near as much skill, but GM is fixing that with PTM and Launch control. Justing Bell (GT2 champ) improved his lap time by just over .5seconds useing PTM versus having the nannys turned off. not to mention the Zr1 was nearly 4 seconds faster per lap than the 911 Turbo.......The only thing the porsche does better is traction out of the hole, which is key in a short distance sprint.

@iPROFITDON Tracktimes are different, different drivers, different conditions make a huge difference.

watch?v=W-6JUvqhLK8

Yeah, Porsche do that with Turbos and ZR1 with a supercharger, both work with boost but right, the PDK are super quick!!! AWD is good, but weight more!
druide106 1 year ago
@druide106 your right they are different, yet still overall the ZR1 is faster at every track, or at least every I've seen so far.
There again that sick launch control, mixed with AWD and a ultra fast shifting PDK makes that thing a monster off the line. From what I see the PDK Turbo s is only 50lbs heavier than the ZR1. I'd buy a Turbo S before ZR1 for daily driving no doubt. But 10.7's RWD with no TC is more impressive than 10.7's with LC, TC, and AWD.

@iPROFITDON look at the drivers mate, in germany the ringtime from the 997 Turbo was driven from a newspaperreporter!! As a example, Mero (ZR1) have the experiances of more than 1500 rounds on the Nürburgring, thats more than the moste prodriver!
impressive? but it's a car with more than 700hp and tuned too, the Turbo 911 does it with 200hp less, don't understand me wrong but this is what i mean with efficiency ;)
Yeah, the S is a bit heavier, but look into this car, Airbags, nice leather ..

For me, a car is a package, interior, performance, quality and so on and the Porsche have the better package in my opinion.

Even on a track I don't think 30hp will make it faster, but in the 1/4 it more than likely will be
Like I said, I'd much rather buy a one of these turbos than a ZR1 for daily driving.
iPROFITDON 1 year ago
@druide106 Very true, but an AWD porche is much easier to drive fast around a track than a ZR1, so the porche easily has the advantage yet still gets out performed for much less cost. The fact that it beats the vette in the 1/4 with less power only shows that it has better traction. Tracktimes are a much better measurement of a supercar.

@stupidbikerboy the porche dosen't nessasarily have better traction the vette is a wide car with fat tires and the porche is a slimmer car wide cars handle better and vettes are way cheaper

@cameronspeed Trust me, getting that much power down around a track is MUCH easier with AWD than RWD. Trying to drive a 630 hp RWD vette around a track fast is like trying to walk a tight rope, its one serious balancing act and most of the time you'll find yourself steering with the rear. Driving an AWD porche fast around a track is more of a point and shoot deal. MUCH easier to accomplish with respectable results. You are right about a wide car, but its nowhere near outweighs AWD. :)

@stupidbikerboy Ugh what? Not a single Porsche can take the ZR1 in the 1/4 mile. Even the GT2 is rated two tenths of a second slower in the 1/4 mile.

I road race against porsches all the time and very few have impressed me, especially considering the cost.

@stupidbikerboy My bad, I didn't notice the other posts. I agree, I've been beat by plenty of Porsche but I've only raced one that actually impressed me, but taking over all cost into consideration it still wasn't anything to brag about.

@stupidbikerboy in the real wolrd your not at a track have that awd porsche roll up next to a zr1 on the highway, get their doors blown off

@TheNak88 I agree. The vette is a real drivers car. It takes skill to drive 632 RWD HP fast, any idiot can press the gas on an AWD porsche and go fast. It gets proven every time the local porsche club comes to our SCCA meets lol. The highway is just a HP battle nothing else. Doesnt take much skill to accelerate from 60+, and yes the ZR1 vette would absolutely destroy the porsche with pretty much anyone driving. From a dead stop you better know what your doing though against AWD

@iPROFITDON FFS Ranger is a 25 year mechainc!!! STOCK where is the proof what because he says so? So then how come no other motoring medium in the WHOLE world even America has done 10 1/4? Even the new PTM ZR1 did 11.5 on R&T just because someone says it's stock Americans are so desperate to believe they see it and that's it anything anyone says is a ZR1 hater... It's rather sad to think like that!!!

@sw1000xg Ranger isn't the only one to run 10's in a stock ZR1, there have been quite a few, Its understandable for one to not believe it, but do ya have proof otherwise? R&T and C&D consistently put up embarrassing numbers for most cars, they can be used for a benchmark but by no means the max a car can run, They ran even slower in an 08 viper, what an 11.6 if I remember correctly, Dallas perf. has confirmed that 10.9 in a stock viper.

@iPROFITDON Well if they keep putting up embarrassing numbers and even a hennessey ZR1 can just break into the 10's something is wrong some where and it's not the official reviews, because they do it all the time! So Hennessey can't do it official reviewers can't do it but by magic unofficial it can... youtube and dragtimes if not proof!!! because anyone can change something like take out the A/C or the catalytic converter or but better fuel/direct injectors in and say it's stock!!!
sw1000xg 1 year ago
@sw1000xg Take out the cats in most cases will have you loosing a few HP just so you know. But Lingenfelter ran what, a 9.8? With about the same hp level. I won't say how I truly feel about hennessey's builds on their videos out of respect but like I said if you don't want to believe it, don't. You say dragtimes isn't proof? Really? There are 5 stock ZR1's in the 10's up there. You seem like the type that won't believe unless you can run an inspection on the car yourself and still not believe

@iPROFITDON Dragtimes does not count because who can prove them wrong this is the big problem with Americans you see it on one or two site UNOFFICIALLY and that's it that's your proof! No official motoring journalist or reviewer has pulled 10's even a modded ZR1 just did it! So then how did stock ZR1 do 10 1/4 when officially reviewed ZR1's DID NOT!!! Something is defo wrong with the unofficial times...
sw1000xg 1 year ago
@sw1000xg I'm lost as to why you jump to the conclusion that I'm American, I'm Irish kid. Listen, I've yet to see a magazine run a ZR1..or any car for that mater down an actually sticky drag strip now have you. Do you know the difference in grip between a strip and a old concrete runway? I don't feel like arguing with you though, its obvoiusly not going to change how you feel so there isn't much point huh.
iPROFITDON 1 year ago
@iPROFITDON I don't want to argue! I love the ZR1 but it's BS claims from no official source what so ever that the ZR1 has done 10 1/4 THAT'S IT! If one just one has done it then case closed I will accept it! But spouting 10.7 10.7 10.7 10.7 just from one unofficial source makes me mad! If it was that fast then someone in the world reviewing it would have cracked but they have not unlike the 997.2 Turbo which has been proven to do 10 1/4 no one can argue!!!
sw1000xg 1 year ago
@sw1000xg Again your missing the whole drag strip thing. And PDK Turbo will dead hook on concrete with its AWD and launch control doesn't take any real skill to get everything out of it. A ZR1 will not. Look at C&D's run, they launch like shit and shift like my mother, then watch someone that can actually drive. Remember Ranger isn't the only one to do so. You saying his Z06 runs where false as well?

@iPROFITDON I'm wasting my times Ranger is a 25 years mechinc the Z06 drag radial tyres are NOT STOCK!!! So then how is that then a stock car? It's not!!! An SLR can burn a Z06 all day long to any speed but that STILL cannot do 10 1/4 so you're saying a Z06 is faster than an SLR this is the stupid crap I read all the time from people who just won't accept that the ZR1/Z06 are being driven unofficially with magic times when no-one else can proven this at all!!!

@iPROFITDON Ranger STATES Stock Z06 but drag radials are not stock! So what if he chooses to say something else is stock when it clearly is not! See what I mean? A Mclaren F1 can bearly tap into 10 1/4 so you're trying to tell me the Z06 and ZR1 are faster than a Mclaren F1 when that car to EVERY single speed will kill both? If you are then I am done because it's nonesense to say a Corvette is faster than the worlds best car!!!
sw1000xg 1 year ago
@sw1000xg its too bad that asshole you were arguing with ruins and disrespects the zr1's that he "loves" just to try and make other comment viewers laugh. but you have to realize that a 1/4 is not an accurate test for a super car. super cars arent even made to do 1/4. the fact that the porsche can do it in 10 is great congrats porsche but its only a measure of off the line grip, which doesnt really matter in super cars because they are meant for going around a track. im not trying to argue.....

Since this video was made though, Ranger took a STONE STOCK Zr1 to a 10.74 @ 132 on stock tires.. but when this was made, they likely were the fastest.
