Blue Devil
I was reading an article about the Z07 with 7 liter supercharged
650bhp w/ 3 second 0-60mph and 200 + mph top end for around $100k planned to come out in 2009. It's currently known as the Blue Devil while it's a work in progress. Anyone know if this has any truth all bs? |

Supercharged 6.2 or 6.3 liter is what believed to be in current testing.
Why not google SS corvette or visit a few of the Corvette forums for the latest spy photos. Also youtube has video footage. doug wrote: > I was reading an article about the Z07 with 7 liter supercharged > 650bhp w/ 3 second 0-60mph and 200 + mph top end for around $100k > planned to come out in 2009.

REPLY: Im sure the Racers in this NG will testify that these figures are achievable with that much power providing its planted firmly to the ground ; Id guess an experienced Racer could do the quarter , around low 10's --- truly incredible to think its going to be a factory car along with good street manners. |

While the BD/SS/ZR-1 will certainly rip up the strip, I wonder what it will do on the Nurburgring! http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1794944 |

'Given the C6 Z06 has turned in 10's showroom stock on drag radials and
under 11.25 on EMT's.' REPLY: All the test results ive read on the C6/ZO6 has it coming in at 11.7 on EMT's. If it will do 10's on drag radials, that tells us there is tire spin going on with the EMT's. I wonder what type and size tires the BLue Devil will be outfitted with from the factory ?? |

REPLY: I experience the same with my 2006 C6 ; I seldom nail it from a start, but yesterday i was in a jam trying to turn left across 4 lanes of traffic from a stop and couldnt see for a parked truck . Had to make her go in a hurry to avoid a collision ; got a reminder of just how quick it is off the line . My 78 year old mom who was the passenger was reaching desperately to grab something (anything) ! |
