it could be in the gearing of the automatics too...i know that vipers dont have quite the performance of a new c6 ZO6 but i have talked to a few viper owners who have swapped out their stock gears for a smaller gear ratio and can now beat zo6's...just a thought

4th - 1.00 1.00

the challenger is said to have 3.06 and the mustangs is 3.73...so yea that might be it, but still look that over and tell me what you think?

Thats fast. Throw some drags tires on that and maybe intake and tune. It will see the 12's.

its fast, but like i said early the mustang's is only .2 seconds slower and 110 hp less...so is it really THAT fast? for what it is anyways should be faster

Gearing is probly the big thing there... Honestly, a 6 speed, some 3.73's, suspension work and a CAI+Tune... the challenger is going to be ridiculously mean......

well price sux and so far performance sux...i guess granted this is the first year of its return, but this isnt dodge's first time around...they could do better, i lot better...i am a mopar fan so i am very disappointed...on the other hand, i have a mustang gt now so im pumped that my car will outrun theres
