Chevy Van beats the ZR1

[American Psycho]

YouTube - Turbo Van Kills ZR1

Copy from Ls1tech

Benneliwang took this video, he owns the twin turbo c5 I did awhile back.


Well, the awd turbo van went back to the track. And it was a very good night.

Las Vegas Motor Speedway, heat warning advisory out for the day, possible new record for the day. I dont know the da....Id guess atleast 5000, probably 6000 or higher.

I have not touched the waistgate controller since building the van, its on the spring only STILL.

THERE IS VIDEO, and yes the van beat a NEW 638 hp ZR1. I commend the guy for even taking it to the track. He was completely cool, and obviously has considerable funds. He said he had the car for about 4 months and has had it to the road course already too. He also has a gtr. The vette ran a 13.02 @121. The van ran a 13.34 @ 99 and beat the vette with 1000-2000 people watching. Ihad a .260 rt to the vettes .800.

ZR1 . VAN
.800 .260
2.477 1.929
6.153 5.461
8.881 8.466
89.94 81.43
11.157 11.091
13.028 13.340
121.28 99.06

Needless to say, the crowd went crazy. It has more in it too. The wideband dies before I even got to the track, so I reverted to my old turbo buick tuning ways. If I didnt build it, and run it, I would even call bs on hearing what this thing is and what it runs.

It has a 4l80e in it, but lke Zombiess other thread, regarding gears again...well, the van only shifts ONE TIME and goes through in SECOND. (although it maybe faster even if I sort shift it too, further testing) It has a 2.48 first, 3.73's, 29 inch tire, and weights about 6600 while racing the zr1. I had one passenger while the vette was only the driver. All the excuses in the world will surface......I have NO doubt people will call bs, that the vette is faster etc....but IN THE REAL WORLD, THE VAN GOT THE LINE FIRST, and would DESTROY virtually every ZR1 on the STREET.

Video will be posted, and pics of the slip....and more pics of the van. BY far the most popular car at the mm event. BTW, we were gonna take 6 people out but only 5 rode out in the van to the track. It ran at about 3/4 tank full, with passenger, on 91 octane with water meth and the electric cutout OPEN.

Still 51 psi in the 275/45/20's.....

No excuse can over come........"but its a van"

Not sure how a van that traps 99mph would destroy virtually every ZR1 cool van but that is a terrible driver in the ZR1

Frickin crazy, I can't believe that tank moves out like that.

someone needs more seat time at the track so he doesnt get embarrassed by vans on the skreets.
