Thumbs up Photos - Pair of blue Vipers

I snapped these photos this past Friday night at our weekly I45/2920 meet here in Houston. Similar cars from two different generations, same CCW wheel style too. The GTS is twin-turbo and my SRT-10 is supercharged. Good photo opportunity!

I just picked up the car that day from having the blower installed, didn't want to beat on it without putting some miles on it first. The twin-turbo GTS is in the 800s, should have been an easy victory over my 670s
