Im sorry, but a Z06 could run circles around a Murcielago,

Did you mean "could" or "couldn't"?

I'm pretty sure he meant "could". While as bad *** as the Murc is it's a little on the heavy side and the 3100lbs Z06 should be much easier to toss around.

1. Put defeatable traction control/active handling on the SRT10s.

Noooooooooooo!!!!

I meant that even if a Z06 COULD, meaning we dont know yet, as it hasnt been tested, but if it really could beat a Murcielago, it wouldnt matter at all to me. I would never buy a Vette, no matter how fast it was.

A Murci as it sits, is a mid 11 sec, 124mph car. The new Murci is going to have 80hp more for 2006.

I totally agree with chuck, doesn't belong in a Viper..

and why not?

If it's defeatable, it's a win-win for everybody.

Not all drivers can handle the torque --- putting some traction control in will make this car more marketable everywhere.

No doubt about it!

"Not all drivers can handle the torque ---"

And that's exactly the point . It's part of what makes it a Viper, a car grandma can't drive...

Yup. Driver assist gadgets are on all the other cars. That's what makes the Viper different, and more fun.

NO traction control for Vipers.

Unless you are trying to break World Records or something!
