Default C6 Zo6: New Corvette From Hell

As the title says CAR and DRIVER calls the new ZO6 the new Vett from hell. Every one knows that the new ZO6 has 505 HP at the flywheel but did you know that the curb weight is only 3147 lbs. with a carbon fiber body and the floor board is even carbon fiber. The new ZO6 also and has a 136 lb. aluminum frame. That tallys out to a 6.23 weight to HP ratio. The new Vett turns a 11.7 1/4 mile at 125 MPH. This car is sweet. I need to get me cam only car down to 2910 lbs. to equil the new ZO6 power to weight ratio. I need to get another 190 lbs off or I`m getting my *** kicked especially on the top end. You fellas with heads should have a good race with the new Vett. Has anyoe sceen one or raced on on the streets yet? Just thought you fellas would like to what a graet job GM has done on this car and what we are up against.
Latet, Al

Al, I think we should sell our cars, pool together, and buy just one of 'em.

But I get to keep the keys!
