Hey guys,
Was able to do an HPDE weekend in a ZR1 at Mid-Ohio, the car is a monster. Nothing but props to GM and Chevrolet for building such a machine. 20 straight minutes of 10/10ths driving and the only things complaining were the tires, brakes never gave up even stopping 155-65 going into 7 almost every lap. Awesome time and cool not to have all the pressure of the race weekend :)

He says 1:35 in the video, I think I timed it at a low 1:36. This was the only lap of the weekend with no traffic.

Do the electronic aides really make it easy to drive like that (as every magazine states)?

On Performance traction 5 race mode (least intrusive) It allows any kind of entry rotation, off throttle rotation, trail brake rotation, it will cut the power for a split second if it thinks you might get in trouble, only under power. You can kind of hear it in the video when the exhaust tone changes.
