I would bank on that being a traction issue, unless the ZR1 has been tested faster (not sure if it has or not). The same reason a Mustang GT500KR does a 0-60 not much faster than a regular GT. But once it hooks it's a world of difference. I am just assuming this is the same deal.

The fastest 0-60 I've seen for the ZR1 is 3.3 seconds. I've never seen a 0-60 under 3.5 seconds. The guy in this video ran the ZR1 in 12 seconds. Most reviews I've seen are the very low 11seconds. MT ran it in 11.2 seconds and a couple of other places have run 11.3. The fastest time I've seen for a GT2 is 12seconds.

u guys do realize that the 2nd vid is UK made?? y does it matter? cuz they hate American cars there and all suck on Porche tits all day long. don't get me wrong, GT2 is one hot car but ZR1 should not have gotten beat that bad (or at all).. there was no "launch" to speak of as most can see how bad that ZR1 driver is.
like top gear, i love the show btw, but they shit on American cars every chance they get so i wouldnt be surprised if they purposely let the Vett lose here as well.. :/ |

Not doubting you, but where are you seeing 11.1 for a GT2? I'm consistently seeing ~12.0 for the 2009 GT2, while consistently seeing ~11.1 for the ZR1.

Yeah there's something definitely wrong with the second vid. I've not seen any other ZR1 numbers that slow.....
