Not until the debut of the C5 based Z06 in 2001 would Chevrolet have another production Corvette capable of matching the ZR1's performance. Although the ZR1 was extremely quick for its time (0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 4.4 seconds, and onto over 180 mph (290 km/h)), the huge performance of the LT5 engine was matched by its robustness.
ZR1, (or ZR-1), is a designation that has been used on serveral different generational models of the Chevrolet Corvette. For the 3rd generation (C3) , the ZR1 & ZR2 were special engine packages. Only 53 of these packages were optioned during the 1970 to 1972 model years.
The C4 ZR1 ran from 1990 thru 1995 model years. In 1991, all Corvettes received updates to the body, interior, and wheels. The convex rear fascia that set the 1990 ZR-1 apart from the base model was included on L98 Corvettes, making the styling of the expensive ZR-1 nearly identical to that of the base cars.
