Cool vid.. I think the Vette has the purfect power to weight ratio and great centered weight and balance. THat's prolly why it does better than the Viper which I think is a little overpowered and not balanced right.

That was exactly what I was thinking. What do you have to do to get a job like that. Probably lots of engineering school and lots of time around cars. excuse my spelling errors if I have any, Tech has some spelling ****'s lately!!!

thats funny 0-60 in 3.7 sec.... but they shifted into 2nd..... thats weird when it does 0-60 in 1st gear but it might have just been the editing....

The C6Z could use a set of 345's in the rear like the Viper has.

yeah, but it doesnt tell the whole story

the viper beat the vette in nearly every performance test. 0-60, quarter mile, trap speed, 0-100, 0-150, quicker on the track. The vette beat the viper in drivability, braking, and other more luxery note. But a set of 345s in the back would close the gap

I see it like this the viper as tested was 91K, spend just a bit more and just get the ZR1 if you can get your hands on one. But for sure the ZR1 is going to be nowhere near the 100K, dealer mark up is going to shoot it far from that. But then again the ZR1 is going to man handle just about everything.
