Going from zero to 60 mph in one second will make people stop and stare, but Rod Saboury need not drive his 2,400-horsepower, twin-turbo-charged Corvette that fast to grab attention.

Probably around 3-4g's...

Love that Corvette' finished styling, the way the bonnet has been moulded around the turbo intakes is just awesome...what an agressive looking beast that is and further emphasises the point with highly modded V8 powered vehicles rule !!!

considering a normal human can only withstand about 5-6 g's this car is not for the faint hearted..

and by withstand, i mean, before blacking out thru lack of oxygen to the brain..
