Default New ZO-6 article C&D

Anyone here read that article in the Oct. issue of C&D about the ZO-6? How's 3.6 to 60, 11.7 1/4 and 0.98g. Not to mention 198 claimed top-end (who needs that really?). During this fuel-conscious timeframe, EPA hwy was stated at 26mpg as well.

Liberal use of carbon-fiber and magnesium as well. Titanium connecting rods, etc. and 7 liters breathing under your right foot. 400+lb/ft is available across at least 4k rpm.

Damn! I'd love to see one at one of our events.

He means, at least 400 ft lb. is available throughout a 4000 rpm range.

Default Ahh I misunderstood, I haven't seen the article yet...

So it's like the RS6 then with the 1950-5600rpm torque curve. I wasn't thinking of it like that. Either way, thats a whole lot of power to be constantly put to the floor.
