Ready for some bold predictions?

And before the Z/28 was finalized, they said it would make 'at least 505 hp' ... it makes 505 hp.
And those predictions are bold indeed. What is it, exactly, that makes you think the Z06 will be a half second quicker in the 1/4 than the outgoing ZR1? They'll probably be within 10 hp of each other, so call that dead even. But I don't see how the new Z06 can weigh less than 3400 lbs (I expect it to actually tip the scales at roughly 3450).
