I do hate the fact that manufacturers think they need to hold cars back to protect other cars that really have nothing to do with each other. Honestly, if the Challenger has the same HP as the Viper it is still going to be slower because of weight and really who is crossshopping them? Same with the Viper and Ferrari, who would cross shop them? Also that it happens with Camaro/Vette to. It would have been awesome if GM would offer at least a version of the ZL1 with the full on LS9 to really chomp at the GT500.

Yeah as much as I like the vette and I like the looks(but hate the sound) of a viper sometimes I wish they were gone so that the camaro and challenger could run wild like the gt500.
Ok maybe just the viper because I REALLY like the new vette.....
