Unless they botched it, thats probably my next toy. 620/630 is a nice starting point

Interesting that they put such a small TVS supercharger (1740) on it. Even the LSA V8 (CTS-V and ZL1 Camaro) uses the 1900 TVS. It kind of limits the power potential but people could slap a 2300 TVS (LS9-ZR1) on it. However, the smaller supercharger should build boost quicker.

That car will weigh around 3500 lbs with 600 plus horses. Nothing needs to be done really.

Last month on tv here Hennessy motorsports had Dps shut down part of the new grand parkway. They hit 200mph in their new corvette.

Exactly- it will have an incredible power to weight ratio and that typical Z06 track prowess that puts up killer times.
