The only changes on the car were the gearing change that was made on the 2010 model and from what I understand, new tires. That somehow translates into a full 10 second faster time....

The ZR1 meanwhile went and got new tires, and some changes...and only improved it's time about 5 seconds. Roughly the same HP/torque/weight....same exact tires (as far as I can find out)....and yet we have no video proof of it actually happening.

If the Viper was given the same treatment the ZR1 was, I'd expect a faster time than the ZR1, and rightfully so. However, to make that big of a jump with only a minor gearing change and a new set of tires.....
Do we know who the drivers were on both Viper runs?
