The only times I concern myself with are the same track, same day, same conditions,same drivers and the 08 Viper has beaten the Z06 every time. The Viper also destroys the Z on a road course.

Here is just one example.

I have an ACR coming pretty soon and I hope to put it in the 10's as well.

I think this is the first ACR I have heard of that will be used for drag racing. I am interested to see what you can do with it. My ACR should be ready in a couple weeks.

I know someone that has run a 1.28 at Willow with a stock SRT10. I think the ACR will knock everyone's socks off when some real drivers get a hold of these cars. I will take mine to Willow, but I am track noob. Hopefully I would trash the car. :biggrin

I didn't say it would be used just for Drag Racing, I just graduated the advanced Road Racing School at Bob Bondurant and thats what I want to start doing. I did good at the school and I have HPDE experience so I think it should be a lot of fun. I am looking forward to driving the ACR and I am sure it will be an awesome car. As far as the threads GT001 posted, it looks like the Viper is a little quicker, thank god! All though .2 in the 1/4 and .75 on the road course is marginally quicker than the Z06 I don't think it qualifies as a beat down by any stretch of the imagination and I think the Z holds up quite well for its 100 hp disadvantage.
