Who wins the first comparison between the new Viper and the Z06?

New re-engineered Viper and the now 2 year old Z06.. lets keep the press honest. :)

nice vid, thanks.

what kind of stupid test was that? Not even a lap time, just a bunch of sideways action, good looking but wtf???

Maybe they want people to buy the magazine and that was just a teaser.

good point ... but i'm still not doing it, lol

Me neither :D

But it would be interesting to know if they measured track times, slalom speeds etc.

I just got that issue in the mail today. I was expecting the Viper to win just by virtue of being recently updated. However, when you get to those levels of performance, diminishing returns becomes a big factor. The Viper's extra 95 peak horsepower and far superior torque didn't put the Z06 very far behind. I really didn't find any points of contention with the author when I read the article. I'd still take the Z06 too.

yeah i have the magazine setting at my parents house so i can't wait to read it.
