In this thrilling episode, the Savage Geese team delves into the heart of automotive excellence with the C8 ZR1 first drive. With a mind-blowing 1,064 horsepower LT7 engine equipped with twin 76 mm turbos, this beast rockets to a top speed of 233 mph and sprints from 0 to 60 in a mere 2.3 seconds. The engine's seventh dry sump stage, anti-lag algorithms, and dedicated scavenging to turbochargers ensure a power delivery that's as smooth as silk, allowing drivers to unleash all that power on the track with precision and finesse. It's a symphony of engineering marvel that propels the ZR1 into a league of its own.
As the team takes the ZR1 for a spin on the track, they're met with a symphony of speed and agility that leaves them breathless. The ZR1's ZTK setup offers stability and grip akin to a Z06 with Z07, making it a force to be reckoned with in high-speed corners. The interior refresh, boasting more screens and enhanced torque, adds a touch of luxury to the adrenaline-fueled experience behind the wheel. Despite its jaw-dropping performance, the ZR1 surprises with its approachable driveability and confidence-inspiring grip, even at breakneck speeds.
Lead vehicle dynamics engineer Brian Wallace sheds light on the meticulous tuning that sets the ZR1 apart from its predecessors. From spring rates to damper tuning, every aspect of the ZR1 has been fine-tuned to perfection, offering a driving experience that's nothing short of exhilarating. With dynamics reminiscent of a Z06 but with added power and downforce, the ZR1 delivers stability and control that instills confidence in the driver. It's a true testament to American automotive ingenuity, setting new standards in the world of hypercars and leaving competitors in the dust.
