Default MANY MANY more Corvette ZR1 killers on their way - 03-09-2009 , 02:29 AM






Everyone knows that the Viper ACR and GTR Spec-V have already been
released and they've both bested the ZR1 at the Nurburgring (The Viper
officially and the Spec-V unoficially).
There are MANY MANY more ZR1 killers on the way though. The Audi R8
V-10, The Lexus LF-A, The Lamborghini Murcielago LP670(like the Spec-
V version of the Murcielago),

Ofcourse there are cars for a long time ago that are now antique
technology like the Enzo Ferrari, Maserati MC12, Pagani Zonda F, etc.

Hell, the fact is that there are many modded GTIs, STIs, EVOs, RX-7s,
etc that would CRUSH a ZR1 at the ring, or at the drag strip for 1/2
or 1/3rd the price.
This Supra is the FASTEST STREET LEGAL CAR ON THE CONTINENT at the
present time with a top speed of >285 mph.

It will destroy ANY STREET LEGAL CORVETTE IN HISTORY.
Here's a little Golf that costs FAR FAR FAR less than a ZR1 but would
CRUSH the ZR1 by over 30 seconds at the RING http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwAnr4s4Crc
Notice how easily it blows by the Enzo Ferrari and the Murcielago
LP640.

Everyone knows that, but it's not a production, or even a street legal
car.

It was a little hilarious to see that little parachute open behind
it ... as if that was going to do the job . Isnt 763 mph beyond the
sound barrier ?

You don't open a chute when supersionic. Cd when supersonic is about
3x what it is subsonic. It slows down very quickly like a fighter jet
under flame out conditions. So parachute isn't deployed until going
much slower than supersonic 600mph.

Above 600mph air brakes are the favoured way to lose speed quickly.
The defintion of quickly being in excess of -2.5G.

If you listen closely, I believe his crew was saying he was at about 550 or
so when the chute opened.
