The new Viper is nice and all but when the new ZR1 comes out, its over for the Viper. The new Viper will run pretty decent times in the 1/4 mile though.

it is a back an forth, you realize when the ZR1 came out, it was 2 seconds slower than the 08 Viper SRT, based on a Viper that came out in 03, then Chevy threw some near race slicks on the ZR1 and ONLY then was it able to beat that Viper time. Considering the Viper is already of the current ZR1 and the NEW ZR1 was 2 seconds behind the old ACR for 4 years, well.............. Also the Viper GTS they got the 2 second slower time from was a preproduction model, the same mag then got 2 production Vipers, Base no track pack, and GTS with Track Pak and neither was more than a second slower than the ZR1. Then the (preproduction) TA has already beat it. The new Viper is just getting started I am sure. As with previous gens we will see improvements every year so the next ZR1 is not a shoe in as the Viper is still being diaed in. I am sure with the C7 hitting the ground and both cars seemingly hitting the ground hard (both obliterate the times of considerably more expensive exotics already) it is going to be a great and epic fight that we all win and that will send prancing horses and ranging bulls back to the drawing board.
