Talking First Gen 5 Viper in the 10s!

I'd like to share my accomplishment of being the first 2013+ Viper owner to run 10s. I know the new Viper has caught a lot of negative magazine press from the limp-wristed pansy drivers that write those rags, so I wanted to share some actual results from someone who can drive a manual.

10.97 @ 127.94 w/ 1.67 60' - bone stock on 19" drag radials.

Full story, pics, videos here:

My stock C6 Z06 went 11.55 @ 125. Same driver.

Imagine how fast a Viper could go with a better driver.

Z06 was everything doing just right with a good driver if I remember. Long time ago.

That is great driving. I remember meeting you back in 2003 at MTI. I was getting a heads and cam package on my 03 Zo6. Man you have come along way with all the bad *** rides. Congrats on the time. I'm sure you do not remember me, but my name is Jason Rowley. Friend's with Aric Potter, I think you said you knew him. Congrats again on the time and beautiful ride!

Hello Jason, I remember your name. I haven't seen Aric in years, does he still play with cars?

Yeah he still does, but not as much. He is pretty heavy into doing the ATV stuff. He does have a nice clean C6 with some stuff done to it.
