Hot Rod magazine’s customized Pontiac Solstice with a Corvette LS7 engine is nearing completion. The car will weigh less than 3,000 pounds when it is completed and will put out 600 horsepower. A lot of weight was cut from the stock configuration, but 700 pounds were added due to the drivetrain swap, rollcage, and other parts. The team completely re-skinned the car with carbon fiber body panels on top of he basic unibody structure. The GM Performance Division helped the team work out some bugs and fine tune the car.
