From a roll....my vote woudl have to be with the Viper. Now from a stop I think you might have a fighting chance.

I kept up from a roll in my old turbo CRX. Well, until I hit my top speed and the viper flew past... I don't think my modded EVO has the roll speed/pull of my old CRX, but you should be able to keep up or not get crushed too bad...

All of you are wrong, why because they already... don't want to be a spoiler, but the author of this thread already knows the outcome. I'm hoping he posts the video, although it probably would get deleted by the moderators.

IMHO the people that seem to underestimate the EVO the most, is EVO owners, very surprising.

In theory, a well driven Viper should be a pretty descent matchup 389whp EVO from a roll, but I'd give the win to the Viper...buttt there is alot more to racing then just dyno figures

Holla if ya need a host and I can keep it up for a few days

Videos will get this thread deleted... which I don't want to happen.

I made this thread cause I had a general understanding that Evo's are generally underestimated... especially from a roll... especially mine.

Yes, I already know the outcome of this race... and the Viper SRT-10 I raced, I found out later was not stock... rather it had its 3.09 gear replaced with a 3.73 gear... which makes a considerable difference for drag racing.

I'll let this thread drag out a 'bit longer before I post the exact results.
