The Corvette ZR1 is making its presence known in the supercar world, smashing five lap records at some of the most demanding tracks in the U.S. With four different GM engineers at the wheel, the ZR1 clocked blistering times at Watkins Glen, Road America, Road Atlanta, and both layouts of Virginia International Raceway (Full Circuit and Grand Course). These record-breaking runs were done in a pre-production ZR1 with the optional ZTK Performance Package, which adds an aggressive carbon-fiber rear wing, front dive planes, and grippy Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2R ZP tires. Combined with its monstrous 1,064-horsepower V8, it’s no surprise the ZR1 is making waves in the track world.
GM’s team of Level 6 certified drivers, with decades of experience, pushed the ZR1 to its limits to prove what it’s capable of. The best part? You don’t need to be a professional to tap into the car’s potential. The engineering behind the ZR1 makes it approachable for drivers looking to get serious on the track while still being an absolute beast in the right hands. Whether it’s carving through corners or blasting down straights, the ZR1 is built to perform at all cost.
With a top speed of 233 mph, a 0-60 mph time of just 2.3 seconds, and a quarter-mile run in 9.6 seconds, the ZR1 is more about real-world track performance. It’s not trying to be a hypercar; it’s just proving that a Corvette can hang with some of the fastest cars on the planet without the million-dollar price tag.
