The guy in the Viper must shift slower than my dead grandmother cause he lost about 2 cars on every shift. Not to mention he had his left arm hanging out the window. Probably would have been a dead even race with a better driver. However GN's are bad ***, and there's a bunch of them running around running 9's in street trim...

being a former gn owner i always love to see a gn whip some azz! but that viper guy was sad! maybe the passenger was shifting for him since he had his "cool" arm out the window.

I agree they were all going way too slow! The entire video is 23 seconds long and they leave the line after 7 seconds that means that when the video cut out the had been at it for 16 seconds. Even an Terrible driver could get a GTS to over 100 in that amount of time, but if you look at the white line in the middle of the road, it doesn't seem to be mooving very fast And that would mean for the GN's too pull on a viper like that, they would have to be doing in exess of 120, so I must call <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" />

You always hear the phrase "it was like he was going in reverse!", but that right there has got to be the best demonstration of that, ever!! <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />

That was some shifting on the Vipers part. You could see in second where he was pulling em back in until he had to shift. That's the biggest dissappointment of all is seeing a more powerful car loosing because of driver error. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Most of the comments in here are jokes. The Viper is not the end all, be all of cars. GN's are very capable cars. It wouldn't take much to modify one to be able to take a Viper out like this one. Regardless if the guy was shifting crappy. The fact would still remain, the GN's would have still won.
