600 HP * .85 (15% drive train loss) = 510 rwhp
Magazine estimated a curb weight of 3400 lbs. So, 3400 / 510 = 6.6
C6 Z06:
3132 / 455 = 6.8
Viper has a slight better power/weight, but not by much. Plus, the Z06 has a little more aggressive gear still (3.42 vs. the Vipers 3.07). I think it will be a lot closer than we all think. Can't wait to see some road tests!!

I didn't bother to read the rest of the post but here is my reply to your and all the other chicken posts.
When the new Z06 came out, all of the corvette guys come on here and spill your ignorant propaganda. It was noted before that it will always be a driver's race. Now with the higher HP Viper, you are the first idiot to come on here and concede that it will be a drivers race ONLY because of the new HP increase. I have seen Z06s run in AZ and they suck. I kick their behinds in my Gen 2. Now, I am not saying anything more than that. So I will say it again, it is a driver's race regardless if it is the new more HP car or the current one.
So stop your bantering and drive your Z06. It is great that you like your Z06 and I like the Vipers.
At least you don't drive a gutted Honda Civic that goes 6 sec 1/4 and comparing that to the Viper, I give you credit for that.
How many times do we have to see you posting this nonsense before we just say, "great ok, now just go enjoy your cars."
