This coupled tried me on today in a vette. It only took me 4k in 1st gear to pass em. Afterwards I sat and talked to em..really nice people actually. Corvette guys that I've experienced seem to actually respect the Viper and all the jester is in good fun. Hey at least we all like fast cars.

you could have passed them is 6th gear with the emergency brake on. afterall, the car is YELLOW.

:omg:


:bolt:




:lmao:


:omg::omg::omg:

Wow! Throw a rock at all yellow owners!

First you say that the yellow color is tarnished by being available on a vette, and then Mr. Big here runs over us with a steam roller!

This is a tough morning so far! ;)

You see where the Yellow vette is in the picture. How do we REALLY know that the positions changed?:lmao::lmao::lmao:


I am torn here. I do not know how to respond. One side of me says it is yellow, so it would be the fastest. Yet on the other, my dislike for anything not Dodge brand is pretty high up there.

So, even with yellow being the fastest color, I would then be saying a vette is fast, and we all know that is not possible.

Could chalk it up to it was a SSG car and not a red Viper, so that helps....

I CANT TAKE THIS! :panic:

This is harder than pondering who I like better: Kirk or Picard! :rolleyes::rolaugh:

The real question is why on earth are you taking a picture of a 'vette, not to mention while you're behind the wheel!?

Yes I was taking a pic. I also had a bottle of gin I was drinking and my mail order bride in the trunk. Why you gotta hate?! lol

And ... you're an enthusiast!!!

Means that you don't get invited to the places and events where the really fast cars (Vipers) hang out.

Don't blame you for not noticing that was a C5. I didn't notice that either. I also don't notice the difference between a 599 and a 308 Ferrari. Porshces also are 917s and other numbers that I forgot. Viper's are easy, Gen 1, 2, 3, 4. GTS, vert, coupe and ACR.

Just watched an IS spinning the tires on TV. "Fast is tempting" is their slogan. Fast??? It has 4 doors! Didn't even sound like a V8.

I don't care. There is a reason I prefer supercharged to stock anything (even Vipers).

Mopar Boy's Yellow car needs a supercharger to keep up to even my RED GTS. I was wondering if you'll be sc'd when you get to SLC??? I'll probably be bringing my Sapphire/Blue GTS there and everyone knows the faster cars are blue of have blue stripes.

Ted, that yellow Corvette is a base C6, not a C5. Either way, not nearly enough to keep up with a 600 hp Viper.

Kinda rude to call them "idiots" when you claim they were nice people.

He didn't go over 4k rpm - warranty is still valid - break in proceedure is being followed.

Lancer, at what rpm does the rev limiter kick in on a gen 4 - I can't remember.

Really! Kirk is a Viper and Picard would be a Vette. Ummmm well..... Not even a Vette. More like a Beemer. Nice and conservitive and even a bit boring.

Oh, OK. But a base C6 is equal to a Z06 C5? 400 & 430hp?


with the 'base coming with skinny tires on the rear I think a Gen 1 would beat it?

It would depend on what year C6 it is -some of the newer ones are a little stronger than the C5Z06...some of the older C6's are a little slower than the C5Z06...basically a driver's race.

All slow by today's standards... :D

And your comment on "skinny tires" on rear... <<< :rolaugh::rolaugh:

CALLING YOU OUT ON THIS ONE LANCERMAN!!! THAT WAS SUNDAY. THAT IS MY WIFE'S CORVETTE! See that the license plate frame says "Vanessa's Corvette." You probalby did not realize we have a Viper too. She hit the gas and you would not even play...and NO, we did not talk afterwards. We saw you take that picture with your camera on Rt.59 and 75th St. You owe the forum an apology for making up this crap.

Not at all.
A LS2 Z51C6 is about the same as a C5Z06. But an LS3 base is significantly faster. I ran a friend's over the weekend and it was almost neck & neck until the middle of 4th, where I started to pull away. I'm in a '99 ACR b&b cbe, catless, untuned.
A stock genI would get walked by an LS3 base vette from a roll.
