The world's
fastest and most powerful production Corvette, the 638 hp ZR1 has become
the pinnacle of American sports cars. For most ZR1 owners, having a car
capable of Nürburgring times of 7:26 is more than enough performance to
satisfy their need for speed. However, for the select few who subscribe
to the mantra of "too much horsepower is never enough", Hennessey
Performance has something special in store for them: 705 hp Z700 upgrade
package for the 2010 ZR1.
Porsche 911 owners wanting the uber
Porsche can order the GT3 RS. Dodge Viper enthusiasts wanting the ultimate road
race Viper have the ACR. Now ZR1 owners can opt for the Hennessey Z700 upgrade
for their Corvettes.
Hennessey's Z700 performance package starts by
upgrading the LS9's supercharger, exhaust and air induction systems, which is
then dyno tuned to 705 hp. But this is just the beginning. Additional upgrades
include lightweight carbon fiber wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires,
which reduces rotating weight by nearly 60 lbs. Hennessey's Z-Aero carbon fiber
front splitter, canards and rear spoiler also add over 300 lbs of downforce,
helping plant the added power to the road or track. Rounding out the Z700
upgrade package is a revised interior with lightweight carbon fiber seats,
Alcantara steering wheel and shift knob.
The company plans to build just
24 of these limited-edition Corvette ZR1's for the 2010 model year. Each
customer also gets a full day of performance driving instruction in his or her
new Z700 at Hennessey's own private test track, Lonestar Motorsports Park.
Lonestar, which is located next to the company's facility, is located just west
of Houston, Texas and has a full quarter-mile dragstrip as well as the addition
of a 1.1-mile road course which will soon be under construction.
