That's gotta suck for that Viper owner, the way the vid started out, i thought something like that was going to happen, and when i heard him lock up the brakes i knew it was going off

In Germany they tested a Diablo SV against a Viper GTS on the Ring.
The Viper was faster.

That shouldn't be surprising, the power/weight ratio is probably about the same, and Lambos before the current ones were never known for handling finesse
