Default C6 z06 versus two new 2014 Dodge Vipers

Ran two new 2014 Vipers.

One was a GTS packaged Launch Edition (Blue and White) and the other was an SRT packaged all white Viper.

I will be uploading a couple videos tonight of some runs.

Overall, the gearing is a bit different compared to the Gen III and Gen IV Vipers, so it made for a fun time.

Due to power, my car easily ran ahead and put 2/3 cars and more on each one. If I got a jump (Due to a throttle delay on the Vipers), it would be even more.

Such pretty cars though.

All three cars are found below in the following pictures:

they had the new vipers out on this meeting? I didn't think they was out for sell yet. very nice cars and those new vipers look very good! I think they are very well built and with a little motor work to them say a turbo or S/C bc the internals are all forged again they will def be tearing up the streets. Dodge has finally stepped it up this time!

Thankfully I was not physically close to that white one. I would have layed down the goo all over that car.
Damn they look badass!

They have been out for min. Friend helped his buddy take delivery about a month and half ago. With 22 miles on it it laid down 529whp and 509wtq. Guy was in shock. But they said their dyno reads a little liw. Another in Austin laid down similar numbers.

They ran 2 weeks ago and GT500 put a hurting on it pretty Bad. Gt500 is a 12 with vmp blower 16lbs, headers, cj tb, made 700whp and 700wtq.

But gt500 owner said the viper feels like it is getting faster as it gets few miles on it. Car still only has hair over 400 miles on it.

Only problem with that are the new Vipers have the same plague the Gen IV's had which is the inability to be modified currently. That is why you don't see 2010 Vipers with Paxton Superchargers or something crazy like that.

Dodge goes to great lengths to lock down their ECUs. It's a shame

one of the best looking cars to ever come out of this country IMHO, gets my pants tight every time I even see a bloody picture of it.

too bad they don't sound too inspiring (IMHO of course)
