I doubt it. Put them both on road tires with pump gas and no other mods and see what happens. I'm not saying that the Viper would lose, just that it wouldn't be a walkover. Then, put them on a racetrack....
Depends on what kind of race. If its a race to 220mph or a few miles the Viper will smoke the Veyron like its standing still...But all out top end to 252mph the Vipers aerodynamic deficiencies versus the Veyron would play a part and the Veyron should get a higher top speed....Vipers with 1400rwhp have done near 7 sec 1/4 mile times at over 170mph...Veyron has no chance in mile to 2 mile race.....A car with this much power would accelerate to 200 and stop before the Veyron could pass it...Dont forget its lighter then the Veyron...
Yeah, but on what tires? You think that this Viper is going to get traction from a standstill using standard road-tires? If the Viper and Veyron were both using standard road-tires I'd back the Veyron on 0-60 and 0-100. As you said, the Veyron has it at 210+ due to the aerodynamics, and I'd back it 100% in braking tests and on a racetrack.
When the Snake hooks up tho it will run down the Veyron easily. On further thought with 1500hp the Viper would easily do 230-240+ at the top end and get there much quicker than the Veyron if it keeps the factory gearing. I remember an early Hennessey Venom 650 in Car and Driver did 215mph flat out..This Viper has almost 1000hp more than that Venom. :shock: :shock: I agree with ya on the track results unless the viper gets upgraded suspension and equal rubber then it would be an interesting fight..
