The 7 foot difference simply could be because of different conditions in weather and the track where they were testing.

And 320 - 283 =..... 37. Silly vette owners.

vette12 · 06 Jul 2008, 10:10 am

haha, and im an engineer major... thanks. a little dislexic, thought 280 and 323 i guess. still is quite a difference. all the others were consistently close

talon,

where did you get the braking numbers for the GT40

Ferrari F430 F1 vs. Ford GT - Engine, Chassis, Dimensions, Price, Warranty & Performance - Exotic Coupe Comparison - Motor Trend

I've been on a few sites and 100mph-0 is less than 300ft consistently.

Another thing about the GT40's braking, when there was a battle between Dodge, GM, Ford tuners on their flagship cars, the Ford only had the pads changed and out braked them all

I got all the numbers from motortrend.com. They were all comparison tests between the viper and the model listed.

bam 240sx · 07 Jul 2008, 07:37 pm

haha i meant the abs system i thought that they always acted up and shit and would just lock the brakes up like there was none.

im an engineering major too, mechanical technology. you?

American Psycho · 07 Jul 2008, 07:40 pm

Lol, I'm not sure what that has to do with anything? You said the vipers braking sucked so I just showed examples of it not sucking. Had you mentioned the abs at first that would have been different.

Yeah, that's one of the main reasons I still love them more than vettes. Vettes just keep getting more and more electronic help.
