    Nice, they updated! I am seriously impressed with this one. They're not cutting any corners, that's for sure.

    Some pictures for the lazy... Check out that custom intake system in the 3rd picture. Wow.

    Some SERIOUS work involved.
    Makes a good read.
    Thanks.
    Can't wait for final reports, where'd you get the times from ? And did they keep the weight below 3000lbs ??

    I have the article, and it is wicked. It also stop from 60 in 95 feet. The intake looks like the one on the C5R. Weighs less than the stock one too.

    Now that is the Solstice I want to own. I would like a Sky version even better because I think that it looks better although it weighs more.

    Because it would be better than the Corvette.
