In the Vette/Viper race..they start the race at 2:02(juding by the speedo at about 35ish)..and race for 13 seconds(the vette shuts down at 2:15.
In the EVO/Vette race..they start at at 0:28 from a 35-40 roll as well. Nowww..if you add 13 seconds to that, that puts it at 0:41. NOW....both vette starting at a very close to the same speed, and both of them on it for 13...

If you look at the speedometer of the Vette in the Viper race at 2:15(after he is on it for 13 seconds)...then compare it to the race with the EVO at :41(13 seconds of being on it) the position of the needles on the speedometer look identical to each other! Now this is all basing your theory on juding a cars power by looking at the speedometer. So if the Vette in the Viper race is puttin down upwards of 660-680hp...then how do you deem it feasible that the Vette in the EVO video isn't puttin down 644??????
No fusable proof at all, you cant tell what the speedo is reading in both Vettes but the needles are not pointing in the same locations in both videos. The Viper vs Vette is ALOT higher in the triple digits. Im guessin 145 -150 in 12 secs since you cant see it you cant tell. But I will tell you , your video the vette and EVO do not take off or leave as hard or take as long to get up to speed. You missed that point now too. And hey pal did you know that gears affect Speedometers ? Must be something new huhh ? Even Tire sizes can change speedometer readings so how is that any proof at all? So AGAIN PUT UP or SHUT UP
