Im pretty sure its 505. http://www.nctd.com/review-intro.cfm?Vehicle=2006_Chevrolet_Corvette&ReviewID=1880 Must be ungodly fast.XJourney said:If I an not mistaken the new Z06 is 604 horsepower. I have driven quite a few z06s including the newest one. Of course I only can get to 25 mph in the shop yard.:tears:

Hand built "600 plus" horse supercharged V8, no more then 2000 built a year
price may be in 6 figures so prob a little more then the vipers est base of $90,000
I do like the fact that the viper makes its 600 horsepower from straight up cubic inches and not a supercharger
oh that same V8 will also be in the next Caddy CTS-V too
Its 505. Its a bad mofo, but the new generation viper will be faster until GM answers back. Not sure what they're gonna call it though, I've heard everything from Stingray to SS to Bluedevil. I think it would be pretty cool for them to bring back the Stingray name. It would be worthy.XJourney said:If I an not mistaken the new Z06 is 604 horsepower.

Really? It would make more sense to put it in the STS-V.EBXJBOB said:oh that same V8 will also be in the next Caddy CTS-V too

While the Z06 is an impressive car, and I agree, better that the Viper, it is nowhere near the second fastest car to run the 'ring.matt6669 said:...they took it to the nuremburg (sp) and they posted the second fast time EVER in the tracks history. The only car ever to go faster was the carrea gt if i remember correctly.
I'd be interested to see that. Either way, it still won't be anywhere close to breaking the record.matt6669 said:Yeah but it wasn't a ZO6 it was the prototype ZO6 SS that they took to nuremburg. I will try to find the article if i do ill post it up here.
