ZR1 Spotted
On my way to work this morning, I was traveling in the middle lane on 287 and I see a blue vette in my side view mirror. It looked like a Z06 but looked a bit lower. As it got close, noticed it had a red Jake skull on the front bumper and then he hit it. I tried to take a pic but he was gone before I had the chance. I caught the side vents briefly and then the rear of the car with a license plate that read "ZR1 LS9". My jaw dropped and couldn't help but notice the functional looking large rear wing on the car. Not sure where he was headed but damn was it beautiful. This was my first one I have seen on the road.

I forget exactly, it burned my eyes when it went by. Money does not buy taste I guess. Oh well, to each his own.

Now that you mention it, that is the car. It def. had flags on the door but I thought they were silly decals. Looked like the car was to be tracked but again, didn't get but a quick glimpse. The wing did look out of place.

Under all that crap was once a pretty blue car. No more. I wanted to send the corvette resue team out after it.

G8 since I was heading to work and it gets DD activities. I would bring my Bird but I need to travel a mile or so on Rt9 which is a horrible road and my rims would not appreciate it. I've already had to have the sway bar end links replaced on the G8 due to this road.

Gah that car was horrible looking. That person should be pulled out of the car, keys (and title) taken, beaten and then the car taken away - then de FUBARed

I've actually seen three. A black one a few weeks back on my way to the Poconos for the NASCAR event. Saw a blue one just as I got into Jersey from my road trip. (Not only was it great to finally get back to Jersey but to see a ZR-1 as soon as i got in was SWEEET) And another blue one in Oklahoma of all states also during my road trip. He had New York plates though. I'm sure it didn't take him another 2 days to get home though like it did for me. I wish I had 638hp while I was in that ****** ****ing state. Would have hauled major ass out of there.

Ive also seen two, a silver one near the parkway entrance at 105, and a blue one in Rumson. Both were beautiful....
