I know of ONE Zr2 manual. It is owned by my friend taylor and it is a one off. You should be able to walk him.

ZR2 is an off road suspension package. It has nothing to do with the engine under the hood. -SAV

The higher it is off the ground, the faster it is. Obviously.

I think you're wrong Pete, we had one int eh shop the other day.. and I must say he was complaining of a high rpm stumble. so while driving it didnt seem slow at all esp for an suv. Watch out if you cant drive stick too well or have an auto.

most zr2 s10/blazers come with the 4.3, which is not a slow poke for the weight they are moving. Also, zr2 is the offroad/4wd package. While 4wd means nothing for racing, im sure it has a stiffer suspension, so it that may help.

Two words... "YEEEEeeeeee Haaawwwwww" Personally, the ZR2 Blazers are one of the fugliest SUV;s available. The manual trans was offered in the first year of the new body style Blazer and was a complete flop. WHy someone would race a blazer is beyond me.
