You've seen this legend in the making on the proving grounds and on the stand, but now watch this street beast's moves as a civilized track machine on PopMech TV, with exclusive under-the-skin specs.
@S200069 Top Gear loves vettes. 2009 ZR1 was their "top performance car of the year" by J Clarkson, 2006 Z06 top gear overall car of the year by Top Gear Staff. Not to mention the Vette has been nameed 9 out of last 10 "top ten cars of they year", "Car of the Century" right beside the S500, best mechanically engineered car of the 20th century, LS7 "world racings engine of the year", Oh, the C6R dominated GT1 and now just starting to race GT2 and finish very highly (go to corvetteracing)
@S200069 "very slow"? the ZR1 was run on damper than avg top gear track. 1:20.4 in 2009 is slow? well, i guess the LP570, GT3 RS, 599GTB, Audi R8 V10, LFA, F430, SL AMG65, SLS AMG, McLaren SLR all all slow POS's b/c the ZR1 took care of them at the same time frame. How bout the 7:19 ring time? Yeah, guess thats slow too. The ZR1 DESTROYS on all tracks, look it up (fastestlaps source) w/ 100k mile warranty to boot. It's more durable and affordable than ANY of the afformentioned cars. I
Both Best Motoring and Top Gear gave poor review of this beast. Powerful Engine, thats about it....... very slow lap time in Top gear's course, it is at the lower position of their chart. And it cant handle the tracks on Best Motoring (those tracks race F1, super GT, JTCC, N1, other formula classes).
I love how the clip shown at 0:06 isnt even a ZR1. Its just a base C6

Why do idiots go to a Corvette video to talk crap? It is an unbelievable display of adolescent behavior. I guess because it is safer behind a screen.
