Mr. Corvette Racing takes on a Hennessey 600 C7 for a quick spin around the track. Car sounds damn good. The tuners are making incredibly fast progress w the new LT1. You'd think someone from the factory was helping them for Pete's sake.

Rev matching appears to be working well on that car. Sounds great.

I think Heinricy has his own consulting firm. So perhaps he just might bring some credible engineering to that firm.

This is me and my ZR-1 on that very track years ago. That's Lone star race park owned buy Hennessey. Looks like they fused the drag strip together with the return roads. He's going down the drag strip the wrong way lol!

Heinricy is a really cool guy to talk to about Corvettes or simply cars in general. He will be a National Corvette Museum Hall of Fame inductee for 2014, representing GM/Chevrolet.

JT,
Heinricy is a hero of mine. Really a yeoman driver for Corvette. He's responsible for a great deal of the respect Corvette has gotten in the racing world.
