SteveR Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Testing at the 'Ring right now, so it seems... link http://bridgetogantry.com/images/image/april08/zr12.jpg Totally planted, smacking into the apex with brute force and exiting at speed thanks to that supercharged 6.2 litre LS9 V8. The whine of Eaton roots-type blower overwhelmed by the incredible exhaust note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Im thinking maybe i should have brought a corvette but it was the LHD thing that put me off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcAB10 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 i like that a lot. but agree that it would look a bit better in a different colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Ahh yes the ZR1...can't wait to see that do a timed lap, think it will really upset some Italian marques. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Nice! And it's the new supercharged ZR1 for 2009. Wonder who's driving it - would be interesting to see the lap times if it's in the hands of a pro. The C6 Z06 managed a 7min 42sec lap - this should be even better. edit: Apart from Alex beating me to the ZR1 thing, I just clicked the link and that also says '2009 Corvette ZR1 testing' DOH!

outatime Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I'm still not sure about the bonnet, but apart from that is a nice piece of kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Doom Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Wow! I've always had a soft spot for vettes... I wonder if they'll do a RHD version of this new one?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Wow! I've always had a soft spot for vettes... I wonder if they'll do a RHD version of this new one?... It's not a *new version* it's the latest and greatest version of the C6 that's LHD only. The C7 will follow soon enough...that may or maynot be offered RHD but I expect the market still isn't that big to warrent it. Driving LHD in the UK is only a PITA when getting into carparks, the rest of the time it's not an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I cant see them doing a RHD, ive had a few LHD cars over the years and you do get use to it but its still a pita, the f150 lightning i had was not to bad as it was high and you can see over most cars for overtaking but it was so wide i dare not drive down any country lanes in it, it was hard to judge how close you are to the other cars.
