I agree about the POS dodge comment, but its still darn fun to drive a 8 liter V-10 POS!
Honnestly Dodge has been making some very attractive/fun/orrigional POS'ts recently.

torque. just drop the hammer

I agree somewhat. Do I think the dodge v-10 is reliable? No. There is nothing inovative about the vipers design. It is a low tech, modern day muscle car. It is no doubt fun ,but it just isn't refined enough. Manufacturers should always be pushing the envelope with their flagship sportscar. I still think 500 HP from over 8 liters is crap. 650-700 should be easily attainable in a stock vehicle with this displacement.. Emissions and standards are no excuse. Dodge has a reputation for being horrible with this. Anywho, this is just bull coming out of my ***. The real point here is that the video was sweet.

a banned member, but I'll thank you anyways for giving this kid an edumacation. stock for stock, there is no comparison.

like I said, real men race from a dig. and I think we all know who would win that while the supra waits eight hours for that t78 to spool. from idle to about 3500 rpm the turbo has so little effect that its basically a 3.0L V6 vs an 8.0L V10. do the math. oh yeah...that repeats in each gear shifted...

at the track, the viper would rape him.

it was cool while it was here. just too many moronic import lovers drooling over a supra with a turbo lag of 18 years.

like I said, race like men, from a dig. viper ownz. I doubt he was even trying in the video.

[a real FAIR comparison would be to invest as much money into mods into that Viper as there are in that Supra. if that were the case, it wouldn't matter if the race was from a dig, a roll, or in reverse.]

A stock SRT-10 has a much larger starting sticker price than a stock toyota supra. I'm feeling corvettes these days they have good performance specs, styling and priced resonably for the car you get.

real men goto the track/courses/autocross/rally because thats where true racing occurs. straight lines are based on the cars power mainly, not the drivers.

to compare any two cars fairly you have to compare stock to stock. I see what you're saying but that isn't a fair comparison then.

for example I could say I know this idiot with a viper who would sell me it for $5... you get the point.
