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.

Sorry, I'm not a magazine racer/forum racer.

Real world results for real world runs.

Oh there's another Viper SRT-10 that I pull away from locally, but I didn't get any videos of that... sorry.

But don't worry, I'm used to these types of forum discussions, happens on every forum that one of my videos is posted on cause I tend to race a lot of higher bhp cars... and I'm always the underdog... and I've been lucky supposedly 30+ times, I guess. =]

the problem with dyno numbers is that they vary so much. i would say taht 400 on a mustang dyno would be enough to stay with a viper till top of 4th gear.. after that out long 5th gear might let the evo down. i raced a z06 with i/h/e cams and a small nitrous shot, and it was dead even till 125 mph. then i shifted to 5th and he pulled like a car. a viper should be less powerful than that the z06 i raced. a guy with the same mods as i have made 480whp on a dyno jet at tunign technologies so i havea rround 480dj hp.
