Default 1,000HP z06

1000 BHP will be very useful on a straightaway as far as top speed is
concerned, but it will actually hurt the car in the corners. Top
Gear's pro driver has tested many cars on their track, and the Enzo
Ferrari and Mclaren F1 were the 2 fastest rear wheel drive cars. The
FAR more powerful 730BHP Brabus SL was actually worse on the track
than the BMW M5 and barely better than the FAR FAR FAR less powerful
Lotus Exige. The Bugatti Veyron has the record for that track. BTW,
that just goes to show you that 650 bhp is really about the max usable
power in a rear wheel drive PRODUCTION car on a race track. When you
have all wheel drive, that allows you to have much more usable power
on the curves. That 1000 BHP Corvette would be eaten alive by a stock
Enzo Ferrari or Mclaren F1 on the track.
The only thing it would be good at is a drag race.
