Gen V Performance Stats

[Slaughterj]

Anybody got the 0-60, quarter mile top speed, etc. stats from various sources (mags, etc.) for the Gen V?

Edmunds has: The 0-60 clocks in at 3.7 seconds (3.5 with rollout) and the quarter-mile screams by in only 11.7 seconds at a mind-blowing 124.1 mph. http://www.edmunds.com/chevrolet/cor...ison-test.html

Wikipedia has: Top speed of the SRT Viper is 206 mph (331kmh). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRT_Vip...0.93present.29

[Slaughterj]

Wow, I guess no one cares about the performance of these cars?!

[Bruce H.]

Most useful stat is it did 1:33.6 at Laguna Seca. But whose stats do you want as they'll all be different? I've seen quicker times in some reviews than Edmond's got, IIRC. Perhaps Google different mags to see what they got.

[08viperviolet]

The mags never seem to get good times on a viper. One ran 11 and anothe 10.9 I believe.

[slitherv10]

This site takes all the mags, advertised times and any other track event or comparison and averages them out. I found this to be the best site to compare vehicles. They are usually dead on times because of their wide range of resources that they get their numbers from.

I ran 10.97 @ 127 (1.67 60') in my 100% stock 2013 SRT w/ Track Pack, using 19" drag radials mounted on the factory wheels. To date, it is still the only recorded 10-second pass in any new Viper. I sacrificed the factory clutch in order to achieve it .

The car runs very consistent trap speeds. It is all about learning to launch it, the Gen V likes a lot of rpm off the line and slipping out the clutch. This is because of the crappy 2.26 1st gear ratio that they blessed us with. The car is difficult to get off the line without a lot of rpm and clutch smoke.

What RPM are you crossing the traps at in 4th in the Gen 5?

Hey Tony,

That run was on drag radials though. What do you think you would have done on stock tires.

[Shooter]

Because it's magazine times. And probably this:

Test Results:
0 - 30 (sec): 1.8
0 - 45 (sec): 2.8
0 - 60 (sec): 3.7
0 - 75 (sec): 5.2
1/4 Mile (sec @ mph): 11.6 @ 125.7
0-60 with 1-ft Rollout (sec): 3.4

That's Edmonds test on the 2008 Viper.

[ViperSmith]

Now that half the country is thawing out, I think you'll see more times posted. Most cars sold were after July, so not much driving season in 2013...

The problem with that site is no attribution of source.

I'm looking for Gen V published attributable official stats, whether from magazines, manufacturer, or otherwise, but it is nice to know stats from owners personal performance as well.

Nice, but not a Gen V.

I agree with this. And more practice launching the cars for the guys that like to do that stuff. As an example, only one person ever got a bone stock Gen 4 into the 10's. Bone stock means oem tires. That guy had so much seat time it's crazy. And was at a track known for fast ET's and mine shaft DA. It will probably be the same for the Gen V.

That was my point.

0-60= 3.4sec
QUARTER MILE= 11.4 sec @ 128.7 mph
BRAKING, 60-0 MPH=93 ft(considering the ZR1 did it in 91 ft with carbon ceramics, the stock brakes aren't as bad as people make them out to be,)

[Nine Ball]

Gotta love those who attempt to discredit my pass due to a tire change on factory wheels. Especially those who don't even understand drag racing and think a 1.6 60' is impossible without those tires. It isn't like I cut a 1.4 with the front wheels in the air. I am confident the same can be achieved on stock tires with a long burnout, the Corsas are very soft and have soft sidewalls. Notice I didn't even do burnouts on my tires. I just peeled out to clean the dirt and pebbles off, then made a pass.

Don't get you panties in a wad. I don't think anyone was trying to discredit your pass. I know I wasn't. I doubt I'm capable of even getting close to your time in the 1/4. I was using Furmans many attempts in the Gen 4 as an example that it's not easy on stock tires.

[Nine Ball]

Bullshit. You and a few others always bring up the rear tires. They aren't 15" drag slicks, they are just 19" radials, actually narrower than stock. If anything, they only add to consistency. But, I am already a very consistent driver on the drag strip.

[Revolution]

Problem is a the "driver" mod is one of the most important things in a good 1/4 times and most people can't just jump in and launch these cars!

Whatever. Sounds like YOU and your ego have the problem. I believe I even gave you props for your runs. But, if you insist, do it on the OEM tires and not DR's and then you can say "100% stock".

[FLATOUT]

Tony a drag radial pass is not a stock pass plain and simple. That's a fact.

Shooter even threw out Malu's pass becasue it was on Invo's. Do I think a Gen V will run 10's stock on the stock rubber? YES, has it ben done yet? NO.

[FLATOUT]

We just need a Gen V guy to go out and run a 10.99 stock on factory rubber and end of story

Get some neg DA like Furman had, and do it with the TA. You or EGO boy are the only 2 around here that can probably do.

[Nine Ball]

The FACT is that nobody else has run 10's, with or without mods. Andy, show me how easy it is done with yours .

[ViperGTS]

Lets take it to the autobahn and have some fun...you can find out that speeds ~300km/h are no fun at all.

[FLATOUT]

Mine won't be stock by the time the DA comes around unfortunately lol. Tony's a great driver and it would have run 10's in better weather, he had good DA but not Ranger/Jamie Furman MIR DA. I bet we'll see some stock 10 second passes this year. I hope we do at least.
