I was right with him in 1st when I shifted to 2nd he gained about a foot or two by the time I was going to shift to 3rd I was right with him again and when I went to 3rd he bitched out. I was starting to pull on him to I was so stoked that I could hang with a brand new Viper but I was pissed the guy gave up after around 60 I wanted to take him up to 80 or so.
Can I call BS yet?

If you "raced" a "brand new" Viper to 60 and hung with him... then he didn't notice you guys were racing. The Viper SRT-10's 0-60 is 3.9 seconds. I'll bet he was just cruising up to 60... cuz just cruising in that thing is a 6 sec 0-60. Besides other Vipers and possible the Z06 Vette, the only other street legal vehicles that can hang with the SRT-10 are performance street bikes. Even a crazy tricked out WRX w/ 450 hp to the wheels would have a tough time keeping up with a stock 500hp Viper.
