Whenever I hear the exhaust note of a Corvette under heavy acceleration, I have a tribal reaction which I refer to as “the song of my people.” There is nothing that unites Corvette enthusiasts more than the sound of a Corvette’s V8 engine doing what it was made to do.
Texas-based tuning shop Hennessey Performance knows a thing or two about making Chevy’s Corvette sound better and it usually comes with a hefty upgrade in performance. Here we have a C7 Corvette Z06 that received a “mild” upgrade with the LT4-powered Corvette now making 850 horsepower. And when that performance meets the road, you hear it in all its glory.
Being a CorvetteBlogger often means taking one for the team, but in this case, it’s our pleasure to bring you something you will really enjoy!
From Hennessey Performance via YouTube:

Hennessey ??
C7s have a unique scream at wide open. Running under overpasses with the top off is awesome.
