Looks great, especially in the orange.

Still not sold on the wing though

It looks good, although it’s not really a big surprise as the thinly veiled camo’d cars have been running around for quite awhile now. As to the 750 HP, Callaway has had a nice 757 package available for a couple of years or so, so that isn’t earth shattering although a great addition to a factory offering with all the factory warranties, depreciation schedule etc. I imagine the new ZR1 will have some nice technical improvements like cooling etc. Good things coming for all us vette junkies to drool over or run off half cocked and replace our perfect condition C7’s, other gen vettes etc and buy a new ZR1.

The rest of it shows no secrets, I just wanna see the back of the car.

Fully Widened front fenders!!!

Goodbye cheap spats!

:rock:

Remember that the LT4 in the ZO6 was initially estimated at 620hp or 625hp at it's reveal. They had to test via EPA test before they finally arrived at 650hp. Supercharger cover is a match for the leaked photo Conti put out. The Supercharger does indeed have a carbon fiber canopy with what appears to be vents on the side. It is a shaker hood with a canopy over the SC.

AH HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!


There is the LT5 on the engine, who said my pic was photoshopped?!?!?!?! :crazy:

Thanks for the post!

Post up the pics for everyone!

Vetteman Jack 11-08-2017 11:35 AM

That looks really good. Looking forward to more pics and details on the car.

ZZMike 11-08-2017 11:37 AM

It's 5 bucks, LOL. Besides, I don't want to get nailed for copyright violations

Thanks for sharing!

I'm glad to see the 10rib belt setup, and the dedicated intercooler brick passages.

From what I can see that shaker hood is going to look awesome.

Bob U 11-08-2017 11:52 AM

Looks awesome. Need more details.

ZZMike 11-08-2017 11:54 AM
