Default Re: How old are the ZR-1 owners?

Now that's good advice! Either way, the driver wins! Actually, she's been in my '76 but has no invite to ride in this one. If she had an operating manual and was repairable I'd consider it but, alas, the RWW has neither and has not met hardly any of the tests nor will. I promised my daughter I wouldn't date anyone her age either.

I do have two girls, probably like a lot of you, but they have eight hare's paws between them, none of which is allowed in either Corvette's Leather Interior! Two rescued greyhounds who go from 0-48 mph in six, sixteen foot strides. Old Lance Armstrong once had his, during effort, epo and all, Tour de France ride miked at 203 beats per minute. greyhounds when racing can hit 400 beats per minute with that 50% larger heart of theirs. Just like Ferraris, Porsches and Corvettes, it pays to have years and years of breeding for a purpose. One of my dogs won money in 82 of 135 races in two point five years and was very fast...averaged 40 mph from a standing start in winning races.

They are incredible company, gentle and smart girls as company and, if truth be told, did not like my new ZR-1 because I spent time in my warm, insulated garage with her from Dec. 11 on instead of with them as company. They are a touch spoiled, a blue and a brindle girl of 60 and 56 pounds respectively.

It just, in quiet moments, seems like such a waste regarding the 62 year old RWW but that's beyond my control. Sort of like a fillet that's spoiled!

What's in my control is the very same throttle you refer to!

It's hard not to listen to the sound of the beast as it winds up and is very, very addictive.

I wonder how many pounds I'd go through in gasoline billes on the English Motorways with one? A few, I'd wager.
