WRONG, IT WEIGHS EVEN LESS THAN THE CURRENT Zo6, it will have a curb weight of 2910 lbs w/ an engine that cranks out 650hp, you do the math.
stop everything and hold your breath, could it be? YOU? WRONG? nooooooooo...
it also looks like the number 5 did a last minute 180!

what i wonder is the torque to weight ratio

Yes, fact.

Unlike the Z06, which achieves it's top speed in 5th gear....

... the ZR1 reaches top speed... in 6th gear.

Are they revealing things piece by piece up until midnight? or is Vette12 just being cryptic. BTW, how's that supercharger coming?

Gear ratios in previous corvettes werent really optimized for highway runs (overdrive 5th and double overdrive 6th). - if they have geared it to hit top speed in 6th its going to be an absolute rocket on the top end.
