Regardless, it shows braking and handling are so important to having track performance. And the 1LE and ZL1 have those pretty well sorted out.

On that note, however, I am puzzled as to why an SS is 8 seconds behind a 1LE. That doesn't compute. Nor does the fact that the Z51 Corvette was only better than the SS by .2 seconds.

And the last dicussion for The House......................why is a ZL1 faster than the Z06 on this chart by 3.6 seconds. Does that even come close to making sense? Does 75 HP Make up for 800 pounds? Can the same basic brakes stop a ZL1 just as easy as the Z06?
But again for the cars that were there on that day, it sure was a great Chevy result.

Two z06's ran. Note the one at 2:53.5 on the right side of chart about 4 spaces below the ZL1.

#3, Dale Earnhardt, the driving force of Nascar, and the RCR/GM/Goodwrench Nascar sponsorship. Dale was the hero that we loved (and the villian hated by some). Anytime I see a 3 on a vehicle I think back to my fond memories of the day, and of Dale and that special sponsorship, RCR/GM... who I was fortunate enough to have had so much fun and passion to follow.

A guy in the apartment building next to mine has a pristine Intimidator edition Monte Carlo. I have no idea how he keeps it so clean and in such good shape in Columbus. I want it so much.
