Yeah i have a neon for the winter up here and as a daily driver. Wouldnt drive my viper in the snow its used for the track and summer driving.

I'd believe you, but why do you make a name called neonrcr95, and under vehicles owned not even mention the Viper. I would think someone who owned a Viper would put it out before his Neon.

Welcome to last year.

I just thought of another question. I've noticed a couple viper cat-back exhausts use a cylinder type muffler, something similar in a way to what you see used on a Honda or other 4-cylinder vehicle. Main difference being those 4-cylinders use a muffler combined with the exhaust tip placed right at the rear of the car. So I was wondering, has anyone used a muffler (3-inch in and outlet) for a V8 car like a Mustang or Firebird on a Viper? Reason I'm asking this is all mufflers make a different noise and those exhaust systems for the Viper seem to make it sound like a 4-cylinder but has a distinct difference. So what if someone used a muffler that gives cars like Mustangs the deep V8 growl? Would there be any difference or no?

Even with a 45 hp and 90 lbs torque advantage I could see why a Z06 might be able to hang with a Viper. Z06 is like what 300, 400 pounds lighter, better gear ratio, better power to weight, and a much better compression ratio then the Viper. But I just think even with that its hard to believe it can run a 11.9. Maybe with 4.56 gears or something but if it has 3.45 gears like you say, man no way.

My cosines dad just bought him a black 03 zo6 and it is sweet. we took them to the track 2 weeks ago and he ran a 11.99 at 117.8 mph and it is bone stock. i have a 97 gts and these are my mods:
3" Corsa Exhaust
Precision Pro-Formance T-304 stainless steel Headers
6061 billet Aluminum Flywheel
Dual friction high performance centerforce clutch and throwout bearing
65mm billet Aluminum high flow throttle body
BTR-max flow intake system

And I am thinking about gears. I dynoed at 508hp and 512lbtq to the rear wheels. I ran a 11.28 at 124mph and that is with street tires. so I guess that you cant say to many bad things about a stock vett running in the high 11's.
