....a 348 CANNOT outrun a Viper. I repeat, a 348 CANNOT outrun a Viper. No biggie though, mine still got more attention at the restaurant, than did the Red GTS with the stripes.
Lol. My 328 has Vipers for lunch, no problem. (Or maybe that was a Mustang II Cobra... well it definitely had a snake on it.)
In a straight line? On a mountain road? More details please, for future reference if I am ever being chased by a Viper. BT
Not that ive tried to outrun a Viper(and I never will )......but one would assume it was in a straight line drag race? From what ive read, Viper's are like big ocean liners through the twisty sections, compared to the 348's which are more like streamlined speed boats. In a straight line drag, a Viper goes like a scaled cat and the 348 like a scaled kitten.
Shouldn't be that big of a surprise guys. Vipers have huge 8.0+ liter V10s that push out between 450 and 500 horsepower stock, depending on the year. Even a WRX STi or an Evo will outrun a 348 on the straights, probably on the track too. A 355 is a different story.
It's a friend of mine's Viper, and he was following me. I decided to run away, and he decided to catch me.... It's no surprise, it was tongue-in-cheek. As for the WRX and Evo?? Only off the line. Roll from about 20 mph, and the 348 beats them.
