What do you mean 'here'? In the test it wasn't the Zr1 and the katech car has cup tires. The Zr1 had higher terminal speeds on the Ring by quite a bit. Also, Dodge spent 4 hours total running and tuning the car for the ring. Chevy spent months designing and weeks testing for the best time. That's a HUGE difference! Zr1 does not have run flats either I'm pretty sure. I think it's just the normal pilot tires.

What I meant by "here" is the two cars mentioned in your post. ZR1 does have run-flats.

Right, but the car in the test has sport cups. Both cars have the same tires. That's why I didn't understand your post.

I think the biggest difference here is tires. AFAIK, the Viper is wearing Pilot Sport Cups while the ZR1 is wearing Pilot runflats.

I understand the difference between the ZR1 and ACR, but for the test here it should make no difference. You were right about the ZR1 having run-flats, my bad, but I'm not sure what that has to do with this test..
