I just like how the ZO6 crew will jump now, at any reason to continue justifying their vehicle over the Viper.
What's funny is she didn't like the Z06 either:

That's normal... much like what many did here when the Z06 was kicking our butts.
Gotta stand by what you love right? Even if it isn't winning.

WHO IN THE WORLD COMPLAINS ABOUT POOR ACCEL IN 6th GEAR? that doesn't even make any sense! her complaining about that nullifies everything else she's said.

I think the major problem that she had was that she could'nt see over the steering wheel! Its hard to drive when all you see is sky.

what are the #rs for the 06 viper compared to the 08,0-60 0-100 1/4 mile and top speed?
WOT!

She clearly wasn't going fast enough if she did have some pull in 6th gear.
Talk about babble. I don't think she knew what she was even saying. almost like she repeating someone else words.

HANS DEVICE: aka... keeps you from hyper-extending your neck in a wreck...
It does sound as if Danica doesnt know exactly what she's saying, and like others said - that maybe she's repeating someone else's words. However, remember she did not even complete High School. She dropped out early to go to europe, to later earn a GED. Her younger sister stayed in highschool, but her BMW got keyed in the highschool parking lot if I remember correctly.

Ah, THANK you kindly, TSR6...now I see what the HANS device is! Thanx for posting a pic of one. Never really heard that term, we don't race. ~juli

If true, makes a whole lot of sense. Dumb kids romanticize Europe and learn to hate their own country all the time. Put her in a future unannounced Lambo that she doesn't know about... stick an American label on it and have her drive it around... she'll have nothing good to say about it either.

She didnt like anything but the LP, the Porsche boys are in an outrage too.
Seriously though, I couldnt take here seriously, she stumbled over her words and sound WAY too unsure of what she was trying to say in the video, they cleaned it up for the articles, but she should shutup and stick to driving.

Did anyone notice this test drive was done at the FORD proving grounds. My bet is the Ford guys pulled a couple of plug wires off! She also seemed as though she had no idea what she was talking about when it comes to street cars. These are not Indy cars Danica.

I still want to trim her toenails.

Maybe she did not like the Viper because it didn't have a back seat and that's where she belongs. She also could have been upset about the factory anti-fog windows. Depraved females frown upon such things.

Pfft...Magazines **** plain and simple...
As for Danica, Chad can find better race girls with WAY better things to look at. Andretti and IRL need to dump her. She's not worth driving.

Stop it!!! I did not think the review was that bad. Just not very oriented to how to communicate to normal people. I think we all have experienced the loss of traction when going over bumps. When in a high speed turn it is a bit unnerving, and does limit the maximum speed. Sounds like the suspension mods and tires have not corrected that tendency completely.
As to acceleration I think it is more that the senses do not pick up the acceleration as much at higher speed. I agree it is not as noticeable as some other cars. But the speedo should have dispelled that thought as it had a higher speed than the vette, which in my physics translates to higher acceleration. Especially if corner speeds were lowere. She could not have been in 6th as the top speed is lower than 180 in 6th.
Did anyone catch her shifting motions. Clearly does not know how to drive a street car aggressively.
