Ripley Believe it or not...

Had a '03 Viper SRT-10 v. a F-16 Fighter Jet that was nick named "The Viper" for being able to pull 9 G's and go twice as fast as the speed of sound...something like 1500 MPH.

They did a 1/2 Mile race

at the 1/4 the Dodge had he beat bad...But by the 1/2 it was a photo finish

Outcome....

F-16 won by .2 of a second....pretty cool watching it


*edit* '03 viper...the 6 and 3 are on top of each other...sorry just a slip of the finger...:lala:

And have you ever hear of the Lighenfelter Vette that they put through more test than that Viper. Was in some magazine where they matched the Lighenfelter Vette against one of the Blue Angels. The Vette could do 0-60 in 1.9x sec, beat the top twin turboed Viper. I think it had 800+ hp, was twin turboed, the engine looks completely stock. Ran the 1/4 in 10 range, burning tires through every gear I believe, even with some **** on the track. I would have to look up that last part to make sure it is right.
