GM and Corvette pwn3d
 
While GM was farting around with the new 'vette engine and all it's horsepower, something sinister was afoot.

Dodge was quietly prepping a new Viper engine.

600hp for '08!!!

LMAO!!!!:jump:

Oh yeah. I forgot about the Special Edition versions of the 'vette.:lame:

The Viper I'm referring to isn't a special edition. Nope. Just a typical, everyday Viper anyone can pick up.

LMAO!!!:giggling:

BTW, the link you provided states the limited edition vette has 600hp, not 650.

ROTFLMAO!!!:dancingbanana:

How many of those Special Edition 'vettes are going to be made anyway?

OMFG!!!!:OWNED: :giggling:

DRTYFN 09-19-2007 04:44 AM

Re: GM and Corvette pwn3d
 
Sorry, but the latest info says 650+. BTW, you're not getting one anyway, slappy. But Dodge does make some nice minivans that will accommodate that new baby seat.:jump: :fdance:

OMG!!! That hurts...:crying:

However, you didn't mention how many of those Special Edition 'vettes are being made versus the regular, everyday Viper.

Can you help us out here?:p

as a former Z06 owner I am really biting my tonge here...

it all looks good on paper till you try to race onem then you would understand

want me to post pics of me helping a bud put in a new viper motor? if you do, wait which one would you like pics of? we only had to put 3 in his viper in 1 yr of racing it....

My Z06 didnt have 1 problem with a huge cam, ported heads, port matched intake, polished throttle body and a 150 shot of giggle gas. It ran like a champ and I lost very little, where as viper guys had a hard time keeping up once the mods hit the motors.

I will post a vid of my gf driving one of my vettes at the drag strip vs a viper and beat him 3 out of 3 times and that particular vette was not even a Z06 and was a automatic :giggling:

It all looks good on paper...... just dont buy one and be the clown driving the shoe round town.... :D

Well, since the Vette engine is hand-built and the Viper has a truck engine off the assembly line maybe you can see why.:giggling:
Which color minivan will you be driving this time next year?:jump:

Can you find me one instance in the past several years where the Viper has actually beat a Z06 on the track??? Not some straight line drag racing crap either. Save yourself the time...It's never happened. The Viper will never be able to out-handle a Vette....If I remember correctly....Motor Trend did an on the track comparison a month or so ago involving the Z06, Viper, and a base Corvette (among others). Even the base Corvette turned faster lap times than the Viper...at less than 1/2 the price.

Viper---:OWNED: by the base Corvette.

By the way DODGE SUCKS!!

I am still looking through my archives for the pics installing new engines in a buds viper..... :giggling:

KenP 09-19-2007 06:15 PM

Re: GM and Corvette pwn3d
 
Haha!!!

You guys got your thongs in knots!!!:giggling:

I'm sure the 'vette turned faster lap times, it's well known that the Viper is twitchy, but nothing a little suspension tuning can't take care of. Besides, the new Viper pulls better than a G in stock trim. But it's got those special Made For Viper Only tires on it for 08 that are designed more for acceleration, then for turning.

Now back to the 'vette, HOW MANY OF THOSE SPECIAL EDITION VERSIONS ARE THEY MAKING? You know, the one's with the special hand built engine so it can compete with an off-the-shelf truck engine?:giggling:

Blah, blah, blah... Baby cam, tuning, etc. We all know about this stuff.

Now how much is this Special Edition going to cost?:giggling:

The only thing I know about the SE version is that I cannot afford one..

If you guys are willing to sponsor me I will drive it and race/spank whatever you wish :excited:

Probably well over 100K. But if you're willing to spend 90K on a POS Dodge that can't turn...isn't it worth it??? I'll be willing to bet that the Z06 (not the SS, ZR-1, Blue Devil, etc...) will still kick the Vipers ass on a track.

1/4 mile...
11.58 seconds
123.62 mph

1966 427 FACTORY STOCK DRAGONSNAKE

What do the Vette & Viper do ?

I just read something interesting:

The Z06 does the 1/4 in 12.1, the Viper in 11.9.
The Z06 pulls .97 on the skid pad, the Viper pulls 1.1.

I guess getting rid of the runflat tires the Viper used to have really helps. And I bet the new monster rotors are really going to help.

Lots of improvements have been made to the chassis. And without all the hype that GM went through with the 'vette.

R&T even said the car is track ready.

What an imrovement, huh?:dancingbanana:

Oh, does the 'vette have the pu$$y a$$ traction control like so many grocery getters?

The Viper doesn't have any of that crap.:giggling:

If 2 tenths in the quarter mile is the deciding factor of what makes a car "better" than another, then you might as well by some POS civic, trrick it out and put some NOS on it if straight line speed is all you want. 2 tenths can easily be made up by a decent driver.

Are you going to come up with any real rationale why the Viper is better or is this all going to be about quarter mile times???

I'm sure when GM comes out with the ZR-1, and puts it head to head with the 600HP viper, the results will be the same.

I'm with the Chevy crowd in this whole debate, but that video doesn't do much more than prove that your ex-gf is a much better driver than the guy in the Viper...and even that is not saying much because he absolutely sucked. :lame:
