Default Vipers are slow.
Jamie Furman, same guy that took a z06 in the 10's on street tires has now done it with a stock srt viper convertible.

EDIT: Yes, I know, it's a boring drag racing video, but some on here will appreciate the skill required to get a time like this on a stock tire.

I agree. He could probly knock it down a tenth or two. This is just very impressive, because that is a very hard car to drive even with drag radials, let alone on street tires.

I'm happy that he went around the same with the z06 and 100 hp less tho
