Hey Guys,

You've got to check this out.

Looks like they're going to use the ACR vs ZR1 footage in "Forum Wars" on Speed Channel as I'm in the "teaser".....and yes, that' me laughing out loud after the drag race.

[FONT=&quot]Beginning April 5th, SPEED Channel will start frequently running 1 minute promos for The Forum Wars. See the link below for Episode 1.

The Forum Wars - Car Videos on StreetFire

The promos will be running weekly on SPEED with the full episodes airing on theforumwars.tv and across the web through a host of outlets.

The show looks awesome and if the buzz already developing over at Streetfire.net is anything to go by, it’s going to get a great response.

This will be good for all the smack talkers on here AND other forums. The only problem that will arise and IT will arise, are excuses for those that lose.......

Isn't that the truth!

Good catch on the video. Thought you guys might notice the red stripe on the steering wheel.

The only problem is, that the Viper will never beat the ZR1, drivers being equal, on the strip.

I have a feeling if invited to a "forum war" a ZR1 is showing up with at least a pulley and tune...but then again a modded ACR is no slouch either.

I'm sure Dan made the Viper Nation proud :D

Cheers,
George

Jon,

Appreciate your help and sponsorship for this event.

Agree with the video comment, the camera likes Cathy a bunch more than me. She's a So Cal "blonde over blue". She also beats most of our club guys when we take the Vipers to the drags.

She had no seat time in the ACR and with the seat lowered 2 inches, running against a ZR1 with a very good driver, launch and traction control on national TV, she might not have been comfortable.

Ahhhh we will see about that. Dont think so. Strip, ZR1. Road course, Viper, says Road & track and Car & driver in their tests. Oh, but here we go again about the magazines biased opinion for GM. Well, IF the Viper loses at the strip, as I mentioned above, NO excuses, just admit they won and leave it at that, whichever car that might be.

That's what I said...Strip=ZR1. We all know the Viper is the king on the track!:D

A pulley and a tune will give the ZR1 a real good kick in the ***, it would take a lot of bolt-on to offset a pullied/tuned ZR1.

:hahaup: You obviously don't know Viper X... He has a history of kicking vettes and almost everything else to the curb.

A well driven Viper is a beautiful thing :headbang:

That was a horrible launch for the viper... Why do they only do 1/8th ? What is the point of that..
