I was returning form Arby's on General Booth and comming the the intersection of Dam neck and Gen Booth. I saw this sweet yellow car up ahead of me but I was already over in the left turn lane. I realized it was a viper so I backed up and got over beside him. I reved on him and his wife started smiling an checking out my car. There was too much traffic to just go, but when we had an opening we got it. First run was from a second gear roll about 30 mph to about 90 in third gear. I was dead even with him, but if the race had kept going he'd have run away. Then we went down and pulled a U-turn to go the other way on General Booth... I was waiting for him to pull up beside me and go, but he made the turn and just got on it. So he had the jump and I was left to play catch up which wasn't going to happen. The car actually sounded good for a Viper... it had Corsa pipes on it. He gave me props on the color and the wheels then we parted ways. It was :cool: If the owner of this car is on this board, you sure have a beautiful car!

(this all happened in a dream I had last night, yes I like Arby's so much that I dream about it)

Sounds like you had a "Wet Dream" You must have plenty of them if your dreaming about trading in your ordinary vette for a viper.

Good point, Casey! How do you see his "tips" if you are dead even with him. Maybe he mounted his exhaust to exit out the FRONT. Yeah, that's it.
Vette drivers like Arbys. Viper drivers choose a little higher cut of beef.

Sounds like a dream about of a future viper owner rather than a vette owner as indicated by the fact that he already knew what kind of exhaust system he wants...LOL

With 12.9 you got to do better or my old 01 Vette would walk away from you. he probably did not go WOT because his wife did not let him LOL

I'm not trolling... I saw the pipes when I first pulled up next to him because I couldn't get up even due to the cars in front. I simply asked him what kind of exhaust he had. Geeze I didn't post hey I smoked a viper blah blah... I got beat but it was a good run. See ya'll on the road =)

If you don't think a z06 can keep up with a viper through the 1/4 mile you need to get out more. Over 1/4 speeds like say a 1/2 mile or standing mile drag it'd be no contest. W/ 300 less pounds and much steeper gearing I had no problem w/ the brief roll on.

zo6's run fast on the forums, everyone claims they did 11.9 in a stock z. when we see them at the track, they are always in mid 12's. they run good times with slicks and skinnies and then get on the street thinking they can match that time against a viper. All I have to say is bring it on, if you keep up with my car in the 1/4, i will sell it and buy a z06.
