What the hell is a regular race? Drag race? Oval track? Autocross?

the viper has a lack of suspension so on an track i could see the Saleen extreame winning.

^ i disagree, hennesseys ahve a good setup as far as suspension. the only thing keeping the viper back is traction... the saleen might go through the corners faster but the hennessey would catch up and pass it on every straight

If your talking Viper vs Saleen Extreme straight up I think it would be close as for the Z06 assuming all stock,

But the question was Hennessy Viper vs A Saleen Mustang--(You did not say n/a, s/c or extemere) but it does not matter all would lose, what do those vipers have 600?700? more hp??

You can get Hennessey Vipers with twin turbos and 1000hp.They run 9s in the 1/4 and top out at over 220mph,so needless to say it wouldn't even be a race at all.A stock Viper against a S 281E would be a better race.

THAT is the question of the century!

As much as I'd hate to admit it, probably the Viper. The S7 has the h0tness for downforce though, so it would rape shop in the turns. Supposedly the S7 creates so much downforce that at 135mph you could theoretically drive upside down, like on the top of a tunnel!

Too bad Hennessey is a fag =/


Oh, just checked Hennessey's webpage, the S7 actually pulls better stats than the majority, if not all, of the Hennessey Viper's stats. It appears the new S7 is much faster!

# Standing Mile: 217.9 mph
# 60-0 mph Braking: 103.6 ft.
# 100-0 mph Braking: 288 ft.
# Chassis Dyno: 977 Rear Wheel HP

Saleen S7:
0-60: 2.8s
0-100: 5.9s
0-100-0: 11.2s
1/4 mile: 10.5@ 145mph

Just about 8mph but the same time in the quarter mile.

do whatever type of race you want with these 2 cars and the viper will come out on top for every single race.

I read that article too. The Hennesy was the top dog, followed closely by the ling Vette. They also had a Livernois Mustang but had some defects during the testing if I remember correctly.
