Default ZR1 tops out 205mph

WOW! And as a die hard fan of the viper, Dodge better have something very good with the ACR and better not let this ZR1 come out on top. Viper FTW always....

To bad the viper is ending production... Guess they can't compete with GM and the cheaper and better performing Corvette.

We need radar for cars like that, as in, if you are going 200MPH, you cannot see far enough down the road to stop for something, but a radar could see far enbough ahead ot warn you. Just a thought.

I thought the z06s top speed was 205? Also the interior does not look like a ZR1. I think that was just a regular z06.

Just make sure to tune this radar for low frequency so my Valentine 1 doesn't pick it up.

+1, the C6 Z06 can hit above 200 mph. I'm thinking that was just a regular Z06 as well.

C6 Z06 top speed 198. Regular C6 is like 186 IIRC. The 200mph barrier in production cars is actually fairly significant.
