Good, if not lengthy stuff!

I was impressed to see the article comparing the '97 Viper against the 289 Coupe. The Coupe out performed the Viper in every area tested. 0-60, 1/4 mile, g-force on the skip pad, slalom speed and braking distance. They didn't test top speed, all though we KNOW the Coupe was capable of at least 180 mph. Simply amazing for such an "old" race car compared to a "new" at the time Viper.
