Default Performance Registry Interest?

Wonder if this would work to collect data and then it could be put into a spreadsheet

It's always fun to collect data.

It's a start. I would suggest adding 1/2 mile and 1 mile event speeds, since those are popular events where ZR-1's use their best attributes.

Looks like a 10 question limit on the free version. I could combine ET/MPH in one box. My thought was to buy the enhanced version 2X a year, you then convert it into excel and publish

I think this is a fine idea but I would like to see it as part of a larger, Shelby-like registry with as much description and history as possible (in a defined space) on the cars, including things like VINs of totaled or resurrected cars, info on prototypes etc. Think how helpful it would be to both buyers and sellers to say "listed in the ZR-1 Registry". I think it would be a manageable undertaking even though there were so many made, since only a thousand or two have active members like us. Anyway, just an idea. --Bob

When you call in to Callaway cars they get your info and log you as the new owner, as well as put down any notes about changes or issues with the car. Pretty cool, I talked with Reeves and he pulled my car history up on his I-Phone including seeing me as the new owner, etc

I would think this would be a winner. I bet a lot of information is lost when a non-technical buyer, buys a car because it has "x" amount of HP. I remember seeing a database that had performance & mods here, I do not if it's still around.

Good idea, but it should be maintained within the registry in my opinion. If you use external sites like surveymonkey they own your data and can do what they want with it. It would be relatively easy to extend the current vehicle registration system to include such info.

I agree--let's keep it internal. --Bob
