Default ZR1 vs Viper Burnout Test

I'm not sure if the C6 ZR1 qualifies for this section, if not, this thread can be moved. But I came across this video today and figured I'd share it with the ZR1 crew. It is 2012 ZR1 taking on the 2013 Viper in a burnout test.

As they said, it is impressive when a car can spin its wheels all the way up to 80 mph. The ZR-1 burnout stripes were 514 feet long, about 100 feet longer than the Viper. I'll be there are a few of our cars that could come pretty close. - Bob

Couldn't agree more, John. Let's just get the crappiest tires on the planet and start bouncing off the rev limiter.

Ever since it cost me about $1,000 for a pair of new rear goodyear eagle f1's I have no interest in burnouts. That morning on the old tires on the way to the shop to get the new ones I did melt some rubber off though...very, very easy to do.

Dittos. However, a diesel truck at Beach Bend during the 2012 BG gathering broke tracktion @ the line. He feathered the throttle to try to hook back up but couldn't. He ended up burning rubber the whole quarter mile. He went through the traps @ over 100 mph...still burning...Just sayin, I was impressed!
