Yes you can a Lotus Elise. It would absolutely demolish a ZR1 around a race track. Or a TVR Tuscan or Cerbera. which comes in a 4.5ltr engine and goes to 60mph in under 3.6 secs.
Well then, let's take them both to Daytona and see what happens...
Refer to bolded part. Now Google "Porsche 911 turbo vs. corvette ZR1". Now watch the first video titled 'monsters brawl'.
Why is the best part that it was a european driving? surely the best part is watching the cars racing?
That looks fun. I never got into 'bikes'. I knew I would seriously hurt myself...or worse.
I would think that being European, he would have more experience driving smaller, lighter cars. The fact that he drove the 'Vette around the track faster than the Porsche does make me happy, yes.
I have been riding sportsbikes for the last 7 years and just recently sold my fireblade (just had a baby) and for the money you can't get more thrills for the £ or $. It went up to 161mph with still more left in it. In the 7 years I have had 3 'off's' but only 1 resulted in a hospital stay.I ended up with a metal plate in my left arm.
I'd prefer the Z06. I'm not a fan of superchargers. cn
For the same cost (or less) of the ZR1, you could buy a Z06 and build a faster car than the ZR1 with bolt ons.
I don't doubt it , but what sort of bolt-ons? And faster how: top speed, quarter mile, or Nürburgring? I don't have a mechanic I'd trust to do the work. I'm a likely buyer for a totally-stock vehicle. The only thing I changed on my pickup is to install discharge headlights, and goodness knows it could use a power upgrade. cn
A couple little things like headers, new exhaust, new intake, new cam, tuning.
They enable me to see where i am going. cnThe blue ones ?
Those damn things totally blind me at night in oncoming traffic.
Seriously? We have this little red button that, when pushed, will end the world as we know it. We have one of the most advanced, well equipped armies on the planet with plenty of guns, cannons, rocket launchers, tanks, and other assorted weapons of mass destruction. We also have an Airforce that can handle the raping of America by planes and choppers. No one is talking about removing all guns from American citizens. That's against the law. The talk is about limiting high capacity magazines and banning the type of assault weapons that killed those 20 babies. The talk is also about having all gun owners register their guns. Like when you register to vote or register for a drivers license. All this talk about, "THEY'RE TAKING OUR GUNS!!!" is just NRA propaganda and bullshit. It's time folks. There needs to be some serious talk about gun control and some actual action instead of another 10 years of rhetoric or another Columbine or Newtown.
I worry however that folks have a "zero-tolerance" attitude toward Columbine or Newtown or now Sandy Hook. Look at that Norwegian shooter, who operated in an environment with stringent gun laws. If zero tolerance is the criterion, there will be no protected residue of gun ownership. Even Japan, with the most stringent gun laws on the planet, still has killings by gun. cn
that's why we need dialogue instead of rhetoric. How much is enough? How much is too much? What is the criteria for "mentally unstable"? (a proposal to ban mentally unstable people from owning guns has been discussed). I was diagnosed with PTSD. Is that going to stop me from owning a gun? We need to talk about this. A rational conversation. Flag waving and declarations of "There's going to be another 1776!" isn't helping anything. Just today some fool said he was going to start killing people. All that does is create more fear and generates knee jerk legislation that doesn't help anyone.
