Is there a restricter plate on the ZR1 or what? ........Maybe he started in 3rd gear?

May have something to do with the drivers...

Good Point !

[plumcrazy]

looked like a short race too, not 1/4 mile. its all driver at that point and from what it looks like the guy could drive

 

[BlackSnake99]

Now THAT'S how a Viper should handle a ZR1.



All that was required was a Gen II.

+2....see that zr1's 2nd run and launch at 24s.....I actually heard a cell phone ring, maybe he thought he could answer it first, then take off in 3rd....

+1 for flag girl HAHAH ---

 

[Camfab]

Viper launched great everytime, the ZR-1 driver, well not so much....

 

[NVMYVPR]

Almost looked like the ZR1 was dogging it so he could close on the Viper. You know just to see how much he could give away. If he was not doing that on purpose then he is a terrible driver.

Perhaps the car was recently purchased and the driver didn't want to liquify their tires, the TCS wasn't disengaged, and the driver wasn't as experienced. Let's face it, most Viper owners know how to drive their cars. The same can't be said about most Vette/Z06/ZR1 owners, due to the fact that so many are built, and many fall into the hands of those who want a status symbol with a supercharger....but nonetheless, congrats on that Viper driver. They know what they're doing.


Gotta love the V10.

That RT/10 is still a bruiser even by today's standards... Just shows that even an old heavyweight can lump you up if you let your guard down

 

[GuitarSteve]

It's a plus that it was an RT/10....my favourite incarnation of the Viper. I've rode in Gen II GTSs, SRT-10 convertibles (not been in an ACR yet) and RT/10s. To this day, the RT/10 has always been (and always will be) my dream car.

 

[JohnnyLightning]

I think the ZR1 driver was still laughing at the RTs.

 

[Indy]

Well, I might be a bit biased, since I've got a Gen2 rt10 myself, but that was a really good show of what these cars can do. I wonder what these "light mods" are though..."light" is very subjective...

 

[Curz]

Damn so a RT/10 can prob whoop a gen 5 too

 

[slysnake]

If a Vette owner is driving it, yeah

 

[99 R/T 10]

Damn so a RT/10 can prob whoop a gen 5 too

Well, I know mine can......................................
