if viper is faster than F1 its also faster than Enzo, CGT etc etc etc, and i really dont believe that. a 500hp, 1500kg car vs a 627hp 1140kg car....its almost unfair

look its the second time they have had this supercar challenge. (yes there has been three but the second one was only four bangers) Anyways these are supercars. They are choosen by the currentness (i don't think thats a word) of the car and by just invite. The winner comes back and then new challengers are brought in. That is why there are not Enzos, C. GTs, Porsches, Rufs etc. etc. They aren't new. These are cars done this year. No one have put out anything new. And if any car can take a normal supercar or hypercar then it to becomes a supercar atleast. So you can't dis-respect these cars. They own in there own way.

I'm pretty sure they're talking about the tuned Viper.

"On street tires, his 800-bhp Viper hits 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, powers through the quarter mile in 11 sec. flat at 141.8 mph and, most impressive, shoots to 150 mph in only 12.0 sec., which is about 10.0 sec. (!) quicker than a stock Viper."

That's also .8 second quicker than the F1, despite being slower to 60 by 3 tenths...
