Don't know about you guys, but it sure sounds to me like Dave and the boys aren't quite done with her yet!

The production units will show the horsepower number. The Captive Test Fleet vehicles, I'm quite certain, will have the emblems updated......

This was SUPPOSEDLY run by MT's Detroit guy who is supposedly not their best driver. The best Ford GT ET recorded by the major mags was 11.2 @ 131mph.

There is no other information, and the information above is still kind of fuzzy at the moment. We'll have to see what shakes out, and what the conditions were for the run were.

Things are going to be very interesting.

Rumor mill says that the rated horsepower for the Z06 MAY still be up in the air and that the 505hp rating may be revised... my impression is that it may be revised UPWARD.

Do you have a link to where you got this info ?

Thanks

Re: MT Z06 Quarter Mile Time...

So if it like, has the HP upgraded from say, 505 to around 550 then the rumors that this Blue Devil creature (7.0L supercharged LS based) is pumping out 750hp aren't all that impossible are they?
