That little Evo trapped 135! Wow. You must admit, it does take some ***** to take your $130K ZR1 to the track and beat on it.

Me: How many miles on that thing?
ZR1: a little over a 1000
Me: WOW, you going to feel it out or....
ZR1: Im going to beat the **** out of it!
Me: What do you expect it to run?
ZR1: Low 11's...
Me: REALLY??? Street tires right? Have you ever drove a stock IRS car at the track before?
ZR1: I will be fine, I have a 04 Z06 too! (real smartass tone)


Guess he was right......

He did a dang fine job of jocking that car....
A similar situation happened by me with a guy in a Ford GT.
Showed up with drag radials on it that still had the stickers on them... Car had 32x miles on it....
Guy couldn't drive to save his life but the thing trapped 132 mph!!!!!
And sounded just plain wicked.

With a driver this was a real solid 10 sec. car... (Maybe 9's??? with a 1.5x 60'???)

Nice vid and nice kill to wrap things up Shannon! I don't think I'd have the ***** to take my brand spanking new $100K+ ZR1 to the track but I'm glad the owner does.
