If the direction was more power and weight or less power and weight, what would you prefer? Current: 460hp - 3,800lbs Option 1: 500hp - 4,000lbs Option 2: 440hp - 3,500lbs

:cheers: To add to that: It looks like GM beat the Ford GT's (pro in a T-shirt) time at VIR in a pre-production ZR-1 with racing seats, harness bar, harness, etc... with their in-house pro-"engineer" in a racing suit. The suit has to be worth 0.5 seconds.

If you say 4,100lbs is fixed then of course you want the most HP possible if that's the only variable. HP tends to come at the penalty of weight. Reducing weight costs money. That's why Hellcats are so powerful and heavy because they trade off low cost and high power over lighter weight...

Iconic car for sure.
