    I don't not know why people complain about the Street (of Willow Springs) I really enjoy the 2-day event the Shelby Club put on (for $200). My Nitto NT 05's may only last one more time, but, the the track time & dollar value was worth it, $200. = 5 hrs track time in 2 days, LOVE IT...tires wear - don't care, brake wear - don't care.....as they say PRICELESS (Cheap)

    unless you want the asian quota, then the gtr would be for you.

    I'd still rather have a modded Z06 tho.... you can make over 500whp pretty easily on a LS6. It would be reliable, and a LOT cheaper. ;) Plus, I'd be afraid to scratch a ZR1. :stars:

    The difference Steve is this. The ZR1 is a better car than the GTR! But, you could put a 15 year old girl with a learners permit in the GTR, and you in the ZR1, and she'd run circles around you. YOU would have the ZR1 wrapped around a light pole in about 10 minutes. :grin:

    but the difference is this....

    if i drove 10mph...i'd at least finish the race cause the piece of shit Nissan would probably blow up after 4 laps :)....

    once a brand of car almost kills you roughly 50 times because of their poor build quality...as nissan did to me....i pretty much discount anything they do as trash :)

    and i'd agree that i'd be too anal to take my ZR1 on a track :)

    Yessir (according to THEIR dyno operator ;) )....

    BUT.... (you knew that was coming :grin:) The ZR1 is LIGHT, has better traction control, better brakes..... AND the new (T-6060???) trans is a work of fcking ART. :rock: It's a TRUE Top-Gear-Top-Speed 6-speed. The 6th gear is NOT a overdrive gear, it's a true TOP GEAR. :future: ....... All of this equals ENZO performance. It's truely a American engineering MASTERPIECE. The Viper ACR (new one) is nice, don't get me wrong.... but the new ZR1 is better. Just ask Jay Leno. :pizza:
