Nice. Gotta love that air. lol

And whatever it's chasing, the hard acceleration from both of them at the 1 minute mark shows that the ZR-1 would eat it alive if it would get the heck out of the way. lol

Whatever it is, it sounds like a V-12. It is also lighter and handles better. Most likely AWD, but like said above. If the Vette had a small straight away, it would be GONE!

Like someone said in the comments is, the camera isn't leaning, so its not chasing a bike so its def a car of some sort.

chevman posted that, I doubt it was the porsche in the first vid, it should do better in the curves than the vette.

Nice, it also sounded like a V-12 engine to me as well especially when they accelerated out of the first corner.

Chasing a lambo, read the comments down below.

"That's just dirty, I tell you. DIRTY!

I'd like to humbly add my opinion that Autocar should've put a mic near the ZR1's exhaust then overlay it with the existing video. The relatively subdued tenor of the LS9 trash-talking with the Lambo V12's shriek will be the most obscenely pornographic audio clip...... in the woooorld!

I know, I loved that. Given a long straight, it would have owned it. For a lot cheaper. And it's a lot better looking. When I saw a ZR-1 in person at the autoshow early this year, my friends literally had to drag me away. Pictures truly do that car NO justice.
