Viper vs. Viper
As a publicity stunt, the Dodge Viper was pitted against the F-16 "Viper" aircraft in a race that ended when the jet fighter became airborne (around 150 mph), which took around 15 seconds for the Dodge.
In the first race, the pre-production Viper SRT Competition Coupe convertible flew stock, and in the second, its PVO team enhancements were countered by the F-16's afterburners. The results will be aired on Ripley's Believe It or Not TV show on July 10. The Viper Competition Coupe's acceleration estimates are 0-60 mph in 3.8 sec.; 0-100 mph in 9.2 sec.; 60-0 in 90 ft.; 100-0 mph in 260 ft. and top speed of 193 mph.
