Sorry to all Corvette Fan but its a fact ..

Just a remainder ..

Top Gear . USA

Lap time
Viper ACR .. 1:22.00
Corvette ZR1 1:22.04

not buy much .. but you would still lose .. Viper ACR The Corvette Killer ..
 
The 'Vette looks better. And honestly, IRL, I'd rather have the 'Vette as well. At least if the pick was only those 2.

And BTW, how is this GT5 related?
 
It means nothing unless the stig drives them
 
Yeah Corvette please. It's still better!

How did the Viper do in this years 24 Hours of Le Mans? Oh wait....

The ACR has a team of dodge engineers
To set up the suspension perfectly for track events in magazines and tv, so the results are slightly biased. With factory settings the zr1 is likely the faster car. Even if the owner adjusts the acr's suspension I doubt they'll get the same results as the professionals at dodge did.
 
In production: Corvette

Not in production: Viper

I love the Viper, but it was a doomed platform from the point MB bought Chrysler. The Vette has more potential.

Wait, what? you just referenced Top Gear USA?
And for a flame bait thread, this is just stupid. If your going to make a troll thread, use your head...

remainder
re·main·der noun
the portion of the dividend that is not evenly divisible by the divisor.

buy
verb, bought, buy·ing, noun
to acquire the possession of, or the right to, by paying or promising to pay an equivalent, especially in money; purchase.


I feel embarrassed for you. You get the stupid thread of the day.


make a thread to troll.
make a thread to troll so bad you look like an idiot....priceless.

The Viper will actually reappear here very shortly in '12. Currently, since Fiat bought the remainder out, it gave Chrysler a second chance. They are currently in production of the 2012 Viper though it hasnt gone on sale yet....but probably will in a couple months. Not going to go into the whole ordeal here, but I also believe Benz ****ed Chrysler. Vette any day for me, but the Viper does stand its own ground.
 
If I saw a zr1 driving down the road I could care less. If I saw an ACR driving down the road I would be staring. The zr1 probably is a faster car but it doesnt have a 'cool' factor like the ACR does

Corvettes are common though. They dont turn my head, but if it was a ZR1 it would.

I have seen a few vipers, usually driven by some guy that looks like he was cast from "Jersey shore", so its not really a head turner to me either, but if it was a ACR, sure, Id take notice.

Still though, I see a 2010 Nissan GTR every now and then and its a jaw-dropper. Not even that it looks good, but because you know that its just bristling with speed.

Its like cars are women, I take notice to all, but if one has a badge that says "Im not wearing any underwear", yah, Ill notice that more :)

Probably because you see the 'Vette more frequently than the Viper. I too would stare.
 
Over here in England we never see Corvette's and Vipers!

.02 is hardly a kill. It's really more of a photo finish where the driver makes the difference.

Now take the test repeat it over a variety of different track layouts and average the times and see what you get.

With that sort of gap it's too close to call.

That's my .02 anyway :)
 
.04 does not mean anything. It is in the margins of even statistical errors (not to mention variability of a driver's style).

the viper got a stupid engine v10 8 liter and gives 500 hp

It's a strait 10, not a V10. Given the name, Dodge Viper "SRT10" ACR.

Yeah, despite the fact that the Corvette is currently on sale over here; in 2010 only two were sold in the whole of Britain! And I hate to think how much of a commercial failure the SRT-10 was when it was on sale here a few years back.

Both wrong.
it's an 8.4 liter V10 with 600HP.

I assume the latter was a joke though.

Just wondering, what did I get wrong?

You called it a straight 10.
I'll hope for your sake it was a joke, but given the post above it, clearly some people don't know squat about these cars.

I wouldn't buy a super car to drive down your roads either. :lol:
Don't worry though, as our economy collapses our roads will all suck too. :ouch:
 
The only American car that I see is Ford.Think no other American car got used to the small roads of Europe.
 
WoW you guys just cant expect facts ..

its cool the next viper which will have a V10 with 700hp and traction control... the only thing the vette really has over the viper . thats why its a easier car to drive ..

the 2012-2013 Dodge Viper is coming VEttes Fans are you ready ...
