Is there a video of that viper out where it gives a new Z06 like a 10 car lead on an airport runway and comes flying by it? I don't know if that was with the old owner of the car or not?

Yep, that was Ricky as well... he did the same to a $450,000 Porche GT the same day, as well as several other cars. It was at a private air strip rental just outside of DFW about 45minutes... They sold the strip, and the new owners won't let us rent the unused strip anymore... We haven't found another strip within 3 hours drive time that fits the bill for what we need (smooth enough, long enough, under 10k to rent for the day... etc, etc...)
