+- Prior blocklist: `references/session-august-01-2026-scout-run.md` (Shelby F-150 Super Snake Sport 810 hp; Miller JC9 est 600 hp) + Jul 28/30/31 refs.
+
+## NEW this run (confirmed 500+ HP production announcements, not in DB, not in prior reports)
+**None.** Pre-Monterey dead zone — this is an honest no-new-confirmed run. All fresh leads resolved to déjà vu or sub-500 hp (see below).

+|------|-------|--------|--------|
+| Dodge | Charger Super Bee | Nameplate + date confirmed via teaser video ("8.7.26"): unveil **Aug 7** at Roadkill Nights (Aug 8, Pontiac MI). Dodge CEO McAlear: "most powerful Sixpack-powered Charger we've ever built." High-output Hurricane I6 currently 550 hp; Carscoops expects ~600 hp. Not yet officially revealed. (Updates prior "Sixpack 60th Anniversary" watch item.) | https://autos.yahoo.com/new-vehicles-and-reviews/articles/dodge-teases-600-hp-charger-100000265.html |

Pure speculation — monitor. | https://robbreport.com/motors/cars/ferrari-ceo-two-new-models-before-end-1238521151/ |
