Final thoughtsMy test of the new ZR1 was entirely focused on the track, so I write this review with the caveat that I've yet to test it on the road. However, there's nothing from my experience and time living with other 'Vettes of this generation to suggest that the ZR1 will be an unruly companion. You most likely could drive it every day, even if only a few customers will.
