Damn, do you know how much it cost to replace an air bag?!

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I was shocked the hatchback seemed ahead almost all the way across the entire intersection, the viper had 8 cylinders over him.

The guy on the bicycle looked like another 20 feet and he was a casualty. No cool.

? What guy on the bicycle? Am I blind? I only see the motorcycle that pulled up after the crash.

Still totally not cool, plenty of opportunities to kill or maim someone. He got lucky. Don’t race on crowded streets with traffic and pedestrians people. Find a farm road or abandoned airport.

If the viper had a mid-engine and traction control it wouldn't have been close, but that thing is legendary for being very challenging to drive well. Very stupid to try that with a viper on public roads without knowing what it will do!

The Viper is doing EXACTLY as it's meant to do: it slithers to and tangled up a post.

What outcome did you expect?

Back in 2014 I worked for a company in Naples FL that is owned by Jack Roush. The job was mostly road testing new cars before they started hitting dealer lots. We would travel on specified routes for 8 hours. There was day and night shifts. I mostly drove nights. The routes were on Interstate and city roads. Every test vehicle had a Black Box.

We had three 2015 Vipers. The thing I liked the most with that car is that it felt like you were sitting in the hand of God. I cannot tell you how hard it was to keep to the speed limit. It was so hard that I got written up just for "touching" 100 mph for 2 seconds.

Sweet gig. Where do I sign up?

Near you Portland, Oregon

Not sure if they have testing in that location. I know there is one in Las Vegas. Had to transport a car there once. Had a whole day off while I was there.
