You do know that that car set a record for endurace top speed runs, and held it until the Maranello took it out a decade later. A ZR1 can pull a 12.9 sec. 1/4 mile at 113 mph.

Maybe they did have a crappy driver. Or an underpowered LT5. Stock Supras have also ran 13.0's-12.9's, BTW.
I never said that the ZR-1 is inherently slower. I was showing
syr74 that Supras are more than a match for LT4 'Vettes, as he said that the LT4 'Vettes "out-quarter" the Supras stock-for-stock.

I know that and yep, know that too. I almost bought an LT4-6M (only the LT4's had the 6M, I know
) myself a while back, then realized I couldn't come up with the funds.

THAT's the mis-conception I was trying to disprove with my posts above.
With the same driver, from the same magazine, under the same conditions, the 3000GT was not only .5 seconds slower in E.T., which is a LIFETIME at the track, it is also
6MPH SLOWER, which is HUGE. It clearly shows a stock Supra running away from a stock 3000GT anywhere beyond that.
