Like an old spaghetti western, we got ourselves a showdown going on here between Ms.Emelia Hartford and the gang at FuelTech over who has the C8 Corvette with the highest horsepower. Both of their C8 Corvettes are 9-second twin-turbo monsters and each tuner came up with their own way to get there. Emeila had the world record with a dyno run of 1,022 hp but then FuelTech’s Anderson Dick broke that with his own dyno run of 1,075 hp at the wheels.
Emelia still has the fastest C8 Corvette on the planet with a quarter-mile time of 9.41 seconds at 144 MPH and now she plotting her return to the top of the charts in overall horsepower. Will she succeed? Let’s find out.
