Corvette ZR1 at Nurburgring
This is a video of the New Top Dawg Vette lapping theNurburgring in record time. The driver is Jim Mero. If he ever runs from you in a car, let's face it, he is most likely getting away. One hell of a driver.

That was against a heavy head wind. It maxed out at 205mph on the big oval.
Video with commentary on speed.

Same video no commentary, but with engine noise.

Ahh now this is nice. The ZR1 vs. the Nissan GT-R split screen. The GT-R was given the advantage of slicks and a rolling start. Yet, it still lost.

I watched the Top Gear where Jeremy Clarkson drove that Corvette. He loved it and it was a blast to drive on the track. He said it was really rough and a hard drive on the road though.
That which does not kill me, better start fucking running.

Damn I wished I could have taken German classes instead of Spanish. Don't worry this video has subtitles. Great show, wish I could find some more with the subtitles. Enjoy, this is a pure horsepower porn episode.

By the way Jenna, this car is capable of getting 30+ mpg if driven properly. The only 500+hp motor not slapped with a gas guzzler tax. What is really crazy though is that the ZR1 has over 100+ more hp than the ZO6.
I may be selling a kidney soon.

SIIIIIIIICCCCCCKKKK. This C7 ZR1 is the most balls out supercar out there for $100k (or it will be when they release it, I should say).
just remember its still a Chevy when you take it in and that 100K car is upon the rack next to the Trailblazer and the Cobalt.There are only two kinds of real justice left: street and poetic...
Canada, huh? Almost made it...
