i bet torque management on the zr1 is a 1/4 mile killer... the power is there. they dyno 100 horse more then a z06. But the z06 is just also an incredible machine with lightweight and a ls7... The guy also didnt really take advantage of those drag radials. he rolled out kind of easy. I bet a real aggressive launch he could have had a 10.6 10.7 which i dont care who you are or what tires you have on an otherwise factory stock car, thats fast. who cares about swapping tires. thats getting down to a petty argument. Like saying doing a burnout makes it not stock because the tires didnt come from the factory heated up. car is stock with drag radials. They dont change the amount of power. Tires are consumable items. If you put a different brand tire on that isnt a drag radial is that considered not stock too? Besides, he didnt even fully take advantage of them in this vid.

but anyway lets face it. the zr1 isnt out there to be racing on a 1/4 mile. that thing is a road race/touring monster.
