Viper ACR vs Corvette ZR1 Side by Side at Nurburgring
Started when Garage419 did the GT-R vs ZR1, and now the fight continues between the ACR and ZR1. Andi Bartichi put this video together to show the two side by side. Looks to me like the Viper is a little more composed, but then it should be with all that downforce and rubber.
