Haha, bringing an old thread back... I was wondering why my PM box got full all of a sudden again, haha.

Everytime I see the poll results, I smile knowing that I'm always the underdog in my races. =]

btw, I hope to make another poll sometime later and ask the same question... except this time, I may play with a Corvette C6 Z06. =]

I think a C6 Z06 will smoke a Viper...

you guys are joking right? the srt10 viper is pretty darn fast. it puts down 500hp and 515+ft/lbs of torque to the ground! same weight, more power, better areodynamics...it seems pretty open and shut to me.

there is a big difference bettwen a mid 90's RT and a 2003+ SRT!!!!!!!!!!!

Those figures are to the crank, not hte ground. Go to the Viper forums, most are putting down 425-440rwhp stock.

Talking

ask for a race with a local viper owner and really find out!
I drove a 05 viper the other day (again ) and
Lets just say you would have it for 4 seconds max and then hit reverse

The video doesn't lie, but don't start fooling yourselves that a bolt on EVO will beat a SRT-10. Go to any of the viper forums and see that any compentent driver will be trapping 120mph-122mph bone stock. There are multiple posts on both forums, so even though this video proves otherwise just know that track times say a SRT-10 will be faster in most cases.

Good race and that viper driver needs a little practice.
