How many Vipers have you driven lately? None around here, it would seem. I like your fantasy-world view of things, but when reality sets in, you'll have lost. Hard.

Take care,

Mmkay...no one said it was ME racing a viper...I don't even race civics darlin...

I'm looking at a 1/4 mile time for a Dodge Viper Venom 550 as 12.6, and a Dodge Viper Venom 600 as 13.3.

And here I read about a 800 hp TT Viper still running 10s...since most Mustangs are equipped to run the 1/4, its reasonable for me to believe that a Mustang with money invested could compete AND beat an outrageously expensive Viper...even though the Viper would SMOKE IT in 0-60. Doesn't seem very fantasy-like to me. It also mentions that the stock Viper runs a 12.2...I know of plenty Mustangs that would give that snake some good competiition!

So my fantasy world seems to be based in someone else's reality. I didn't say a stock Mustang, now did I? I said it would be nicer to spend that $60K on BUILDING a Mustang/Camaro, and racing a STOCK Viper...perhaps you missed that in the first post
