Default Grab a Viper by the neck
Took my good friend to get his Viper from the wheel shop last night. I was following him home on the high way when he slow down to about 25 mph. We both went down to seconed gear. Then he blow 3 times. I jump out on him by a nose but in third gear he pulled me by a finder then by the end of third he was out on me by a car. But here come forth when I hit forth I pulled side by side to him by the end of forth I pulled him by a car and a half. So I say between 130mph and 165mph I pulled his Viper on the big end

I think motor to motor the Z06 is faster it made more power on the dyno 407 rwhp on motor and 521 rwhp on a 100 shot. The car traps 121 on motor and 135 on spray so I think so
