By the way. Latest motortrend took five tuner cars to combat the new ZO6. One was a tuned GTO. The Goat was the cheapest tuner used at 75Gs!!!!!

They had a Ligenfelter C6, Hennessy Viper, Modded Ford GT, and a modded Mustang.

All the cars dynoed over 700hp except the ZO6.

Hey Jizz. In the standing mile the GTO hit over 170 before they shut it down because of a bad oil leak. The drivers seat of the pants said the car coulda easily hit over 200 mph!!!!!!
