A Ford spokesman wouldn't comment on its competitors car, but a new Shelby GT500 with, potentially, more power is expected to be revealed some time soon.

A General Motors spokesman indicated that that automaker has no plans to try to approach the Hellcat's horsepower output, at least in a Camaro. GM has already unveiled a version of the Corvette two-seat sports car, the Z06, with a 650 horsepower engine"

GM will have a Camaro in this hunt. It may not have 707 HP but it may not need it. As others have pointed out, drop to 10.99 and your not on the strip anymore so what's the point? 650 HP LT4 in a 3700 lb ZL1be fine

A non modified factory production car is exempt from safety regs. No cage, no chute, nothing (unless its a vert or has t-tops). Just helmet and protective clothing down to 9.99. They changed that rule pretty recently.
