1244 HP.  270 Mph (435Kph). Pretty quick for a Chev.  'Nuff said    :burnout:

Curious why you would post that on a Ford Mustang site.

Why not post something motor related - just interesting something with that much hp and speed. Not the first non-Mustang post.  :shrug: I like and appreciate most things car related

based on a Lotus not a corvette, 
My bad - it is based on a Lotus (I should have checked when my mate sent it to me).
Not a Chev - That explains why it goes so fast  :grin:

Here's a 283mph Ford GT40

and the 2012 Mustang Cobra Jet - 9 second quarter mile out of the box - "economically feasible" he says at $91990 USD  :lmao:
