It's been awhile...C6 ZR1 10.14 @ 141mph

[03Cobrra]

So its been awhile since I've posted here since I sold the Cobra and went to the dark side as some people say so I figured I'd share some updates and vids of the Cobra's replacement. Looking to be a little more active and get back on here more often as I do miss it.

I left the ZR1 stock for almost 2 years other than headers and a tune making 560rwhp until this past summer when I finally did pulleys, cam, ported LPE blower snout and 102mm throttle body and an E85 flex fuel kit. It makes about 730rwhp on about E60 as I max'd out the stock fuel pump.

Got to the track a few times with it and it has run a best of 10.14 @ 141mph this past November at the Corvette rental at MIR. Probably would have went in the 9's that day but I broke one of the rubber driveshaft couplers inside the torque tube and its been down since as I'm going to do a clutch and some other upgrades while its all apart.

Anyway's here's a few vids and funny enough one of them is running an 03 Cobra lol...


This was a Slipstream roll race event at Pocono

badass car! thats moving 141 mph is no joke and def a 9 sec mph!

 

[BRNG ITT]

Very nice. Looked like quite a bit of fun.

Wow. Love it. My zr1 is still stock with 2 years of warranty.

Can’t imagine all that extra power over stock. Any issues not track related?

 

[PaxtonShelby]

Yeah that’s gettin’ it!

what mph did you hit @ the slipstream event or did I miss it in the video?

Looks awesome Chris. I finally bought a replacement myself. We definitely need to do a track day this summer. It's been too long. Hope all is well.

Its pretty noticeable over stock lol. And yea I had a couple issues with it unrelated, leaking steering rack, leaking transmission from the reverse lockout solenoid and leaking front shocks. All of which are a major job to replace or extremely expensive. Car only has 14k miles on it also.

Yeah that’s gettin’ it!

Badass!!

Thanks guys

No it wasn't in the vid but best mph was 152 and thats in 1500' starting from between 40-60mph and the start speed didnt change the mph at all I tried basically everything from 40-60 and it was always 151-152mph.

Sick man just saw it!!! Congrats, we definitely need to meet up when the weather gets nicer. I haven't seen or spoken to any of you guys in awhile.

Love the way it sounds. I know many have done it but I still don’t know how your guys fit them on a u-haul trailer.

Welcome back Bud!

That's a bad ass car! I'm impressed with how much power the zr1's can make with simple bolt on's. I really didnt know much about the zr1 until a few friends started modding them.

I'm in your Slipstream video at the :16 mark with the red mustang. That event is awesome and i'm headed back up on April 21st.

Bad ass car. I love me some C6 ZR1 cars. Your car definitely moves out.

I'm actually "trying" to see/work out if I can afford myself a brand new C7 Z06/Z07.

Oh nice! I hope I can make the 21st also, car is currently in a million pieces though but as long as I get all the parts on time I should be able to get it done.

Those 3 major issues you stated has me worried now. I wonder if they're known/common issues?

 

[Snagged]

We need more pics of that slow beast.

They're all pretty common from the research I've done.
