I would say thunderhorse's video is a little more accurate.

^ They always do... And think, every other American will get on their knees for the imports. Ever notice that, or am I just imagining things?

no, sadly you are right. It seems that even if we build superior supercar, record shattering monstrosities, we never get the credit we deserve... enter the ZR1 and the Saleen S7... all american, 1/3 the price of their next closest rival, A/C and radio included, and of course fully equipped with the latest batch of haters round the globe to come up with anything to protect their Ferrari's and Porsche's. I just don't see it if we always give credit where it's deserved, why don't they do the same?

And to think with a Z06 and a regular guy, the current record is 10.81 on the 1/4 mile bone stock on stock tires... ZR1 times with that same driver would be closer to around 10.4x or even lower, which is what the car is really capable of.

F@%K EM. Hopefully American car companys will keep building cars like the ZR1 or the Ziper ACR. The europeans can keep talking about how much better and more civilized their cars are as their staring at tail lights.

And those big, stupid, uncivilized pushrod American V8's that are so cheap get better mileage too.
