Also the stats already indicate so... the SL65AMG does 0-60 in 4.5 seconds (ZO6 & base corvette are quicker than that) and does the quarter in high 11's or 12's.

ZR1 does 0-60 in 3.4 seconds and the quarter in like mid to high 11's...
The SL65 is a heavy luxury car with crazy power. The ZR1 is a full out supercar.

And I'm sure the ZR1 will run mid 11s with driver's from Road and Track and Car and Driver who don't know what they are doing, granny shift, and race with a full tank in 100 degree heat. However, given the power to weight, the ZR1 has the potential to run mid 10s and trap near 140 mph with a good driver in good air.
