VIPER GTSR 91
Enthusiast
Pick up the Sept. issue of Sports Compact Car with the new Viper vs. Evo on the front cover. The editor drives both the new Viper and partially tuned Evo (4 door shoe box with a ricer wing) on a road course and thinks the Viper is terrible in its handling and shows the Evo with better lap times too????? I sent him a reply email to hopefully show up in the Oct. issue. I questioned his driving experience to give such a ridiculous break down of HIS opinion of the Viper, and also mentioned more reputable articles from Road & Track and Car & Driver give thumbs up to the new Viper. And that they compare it to the ZO6, Porsche Turbo, Nissan GT R and some exotics and not a shoe box Evo. He goes on to say that he wants the muscle car mags to bring it on with the Viper for another comparison. I also asked him to let his import readers to choose from the new Viper or Evo if they had a choice to have one free of all costs. I will be surprised if he actually prints my reply. Check the article out as it will really make your blood boil.
