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!!!!

The Viper I'm referring to isn't a special edition. Nope. Just a typical, everyday Viper anyone can pick up.
LMAO!!! 
BTW, the link you provided states the limited edition vette has 600hp, not 650.
ROTFLMAO!!! 
How many of those Special Edition 'vettes are going to be made anyway?
OMFG!!!!

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.  |

OMG!!! That hurts... 
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?

Re: GM and Corvette pwn3d
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
It all looks good on paper...... just dont buy one and be the clown driving the shoe round town....

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