In a showdown between the classic Dodge Viper GTS Mark I and the modern Dodge Challenger RT Scat Pack, the stage was set for an epic drag race. The Viper, with its roaring 8L V10 engine, boasting 456hp, faced off against the Challenger's 6.4L V8 pumping out 492hp. As the Viper's owner, Adam C, confidently predicted victory for the old-school beast, the Challenger's automatic gearbox and launch control posed a formidable challenge.

The race unfolded with the Viper's distinct panel gaps adding character to its sleek appearance. The Viper surged ahead, completing the quarter-mile in 12.7 seconds, leaving the Challenger trailing at 13.1 seconds. The Viper's raw power and manual gearbox proved to be a winning combination, showcasing the timeless appeal of this classic muscle car. The Challenger, though valiant in its efforts, couldn't match the Viper's performance on the drag strip.

As the race continued with a rolling start and brake test, the Viper's dominance became even more apparent. Despite the Challenger's modern features like ABS, the Viper's old-school charm and sheer power stole the show. The Viper's owner graciously allowed his prized possession to be put through its paces, highlighting the camaraderie and passion shared among car enthusiasts. Ultimately, the Viper's victory in both speed and style cemented its status as a true icon of American muscle car history.
