I did not see the car he was racing? Kind of hard to race without a partner. Also may make you go blind.
Im sure some lower IQ individuals would not be able to understand this was a closed road with precautions taken.

How much of a shot are you spraying?
Most of us can't come down tomorrow so please keep us posted.
Good luck and I really hope you run your number.
And 197.6 ain't too shabby

There is a LARGE car club in NY here. Being a part of it is the PR image. You DO NOT WALK AROUND WITH THEIR COLORS DRINKING BEER IN ONE HAND THEN GET IN YOUR CAR AND DRIVE OFF. Its image, this can project the wrong image. By the way, the club WILL NOT allow this in the club. Its considerd a thing called drinking and driving. and that what cars clubs do. drive, not drink, promote good vibes. Get it?
This is a ZL1 owners members only Topics and Thread so please don't post here!

FYI, this is my personal ZL1 and I bought it just to do this very special test. This is the first ZL1 that I have owned and I am very impressed with the car.

ZL1 sound is intoxicating! Long live the V8!!
The car looked like it was still pulling when the driver let off at 203 MPH. 208 looks possible with good weather and a very long straight.
