this series of topgear is going to kill me from waiting

Ultra_Kool_Dude · October 30th, 2004, 11:45 AM

Is it the SRT-10 one?

If so I bet it will lap 1:24.5 8)

zyran · October 30th, 2004, 02:50 PM

Isn't the SRT-10 the 8.3 litre car? In that case, I say.. 1:28.2

2 seconds slower than the Vette?

zyran · October 30th, 2004, 03:15 PM

I don't know. To me the SRT-10 is a muscle car. The heavy engine is gonna hurt the handling for sure.

Jostyrostelli · October 30th, 2004, 03:25 PM

True, but the power on the straights can compensate the corners maybe...or it has to be Real hippo in the corners.... images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

hanasand · October 30th, 2004, 03:58 PM

It's American.. I'm guessing 1min 26 seconds...

Probably 1min 32 secs if it's wet, even harder corners then

Renesis · October 30th, 2004, 06:28 PM

I hope they crash it or it makes a sucky time..

if it's in the wet = ouch

Well, we've had a thread on the SRT-10 being on Top Gear a little while ago. Here was my prediction from the thread:

I know my prediction may seem too low, but believe me, the SRT-10 is a very very very fast car. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

It's got the same power as the GT, but probably the handling of the Vette, so I think it should be between them.

SiR_dude · October 30th, 2004, 10:43 PM

Wee-haw!!! I'm gonna go with 1.25.4 images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

therem3dy · October 31st, 2004, 06:15 PM

The Viper is incredibly light and has a better suspension than the 'Vette. They are the best handling American cars out there. It's going to get into the low 1:20s for sure. I'll guess 1:22.3.

Raider · October 31st, 2004, 06:30 PM

gawd damn...this season is like torture...you know what's coming up next and you just can't wait to see it...every week it hits you....
