The Viper pulled the Z06 just liked I'd walk your punk ***.

Vipers do sound like ****. Jon's right. It's the V10 firing order. Still, I'd drive one in a second.

it reminded me of the beginning of the chase scene in the movie Bullitt when the corvette started following the viper, with the music and the way the camera was set up

Hmmmm. You get different stories on different boards. On my local board this Z06 only has a SC on it and the Viper has only spray.

I saw the black car at LWA a week or so ago. I believe the 408 vette is supercharged with nitrous and the Viper is SC, nitrous and propane. The viper runs 9.8s.

I talked to one of the guys that was at that race today. I think his name is Tony, C5, heads, cam and nitrous, rear wheel wells tubbed. On race day the Z06 had just left LWA's with the just rebuilt iron block 408 in it, left Atlanta and drove straight back to Chatt. to race the Viper. The Z has nitrous but it was not hooked up. The Viper said later he was surprised at how close the race was. I guess that's why he sprayed in third gear. Vette owner is a huge guy (not fat) so the viper took a rider with him to even things up. Viper runs 9.8 at 145. The burn out is Robbie Walden in the parking lot at LWA's.
