Well let's see...the Viper has never been to a drag strip (yet) and aside from a Quaife diff and 3.55 gears it is generally stock in terms of power. So it would be lucky to run high 11's in the 1/4 mile.

The Vette has a 2 year head start in mods, puts down 627rwhp and 595rwtq and is confirmed to run 10.7's in the 1/4.

In a drag race the Viper doesn't stand a chance.

On road race course though... the Viper has a KW suspension, been corner weighted, has a track alignment, bigger brakes, 2 piece rotors, and race pads...and has driver experience at Willow Spring's big track and the Roval at Autoclub Speedway....it would take the Vette on a road course.

On the street, the Viper does score a good valet parking spot faster

Nice stripes
Looks like my car has a sister car, and in the same town none the less.

Nice pics...What style CCW's do you have on the Viper? They look close to the SP18 or SP20 but have less spokes. You got me stumped on a great set of wheels.

So does this mean I have to challenge you to a duel? Or if our cars ever try to occupy the same parking space then the universe will explode?

Thanks!

The wheels are pretty new and not up on the CCW website yet. They are called the T140 and are related to the Corsair C140 design, but with a lip, more curved spokes, and flatter center section. I am the first Viper to have them
