All Harlan Charles, project manager for the Corvette team was able to tell us last week was the new high-powered 'Vette engine is capable of producing at least 100 horsepower per liter.

I wonder how it fairs around the Nurburgring.

Wonder if it can beat the new GTR's time.

i doubt it.. that gtr is INSANE!!!! 0-60 in 3.3 seconds.. i have a hard time thinkin that a 2wd car could beat that to 60 let alone in the 1/4... that and the vette only has @ 35 hp more then the gtr.. i cant wait for edmonds or top gear to do a comparison test between the 2... :shock: You tube! Youtube! youtube! youttube!!!!

www.edmonds.com has a video of the gtr full review but so many dang people are trying to watch it right now i have only been able to view the first 15 seconds.. the launch control on that car is sick..

I wanna see video of this LS9 in action!!!! Bring on the smokey burnouts!!!!! aaaahhhhh..i can almost hear the rev limiter now... sweet dreams boys! "thumbsup"
