Description: Most of you think the Koenigsegg would win this one hands down, right? How could a Dodge Viper SRT10 even give the Koenigsegg a run for its money? The 1,098hp Koenigsegg has so much power that spinnin...Add Comments1
Caleb LochridgeAug 04, 2011 Way to spoil the intro of the video
Description: After the launch out of the gate, the two duel head-to-head and fly down the track. Does the Viper pull out the upset win or does the Koenigsegg make use of its crazy horsepower and lightweight design...Add Comments39
Taggart WilberAug 21, 2011 Man, those k-seg engineers really know how to squeeze out the hp. It's got about the same as the bugatti and it has twice as many cylinders.
Phillip GreeneAug 04, 2011 yea tuned to hell to even be decent competition for a viper if it had like 1 psi more boost out of that supercharger the ccx would have looked stupid
Michael GallagherAug 04, 2011 Because a GTR prob has the technology and such to do it. but yes, would have to be tuned and such
Brahim GudahAug 04, 2011 Why do I feel like a tuned Nissan gtr would wipe the floor with them both... And I'm a muscle car guy
Jacob McCordAug 04, 2011 @Stuart turner wow. ok, why? I want a legit reason...
Gib TerwilligerAug 04, 2011 That Viper had 750 hp and still kept up. If it had 1000+hp, there wouldn't have been a challenge. Viper would have wiped the floor
Davey EdwardsAug 04, 2011 I'm a chevy guy but it's good to see American cars stepping it up with the viper/zr1/gt. They are a relatively cheap way to get all the power you could ever want on the street
Paul PickardAug 04, 2011 Did they just pick a random person out of the crowd to drive the ccx or what? For the price of that thing it should be racing a cruise missile or something.
AJ HaverlyAug 04, 2011 those quarter times are not impressive my friends cousin is running low 9s with his turbocharged 350 rx-7
Ken MadisonAug 04, 2011 Stuart turner, why don't you race me? I bet my car that I will put your euro/Asian car to shame. Road course or drag strip.
Feel free to shoot me a message on Facebook if you live in the eastern time zone.
Shane CarrollAug 04, 2011 A car that costs more than twice as much won? Shocking
Daniel LevyAug 04, 2011 Eh expected more bythe european super car, of course it was going to pull away, but for $200,000 more it sure took long enough
Bryce DeppermanAug 04, 2011 If the race had been 2 miles the viper wouldn't have been able to SEE the CCX.
Ken MadisonAug 04, 2011 And my bad, didn't see supercharged. Any force induction hennessey or lingenfelter Z06 would beat that Swedish car in a drag.
Besides, I'm sure the Z06 and ZR1 have a way more advanced traction control system to help on launch.
Ken MadisonAug 04, 2011 Whoever said that Swedish car could do low 11s.... Do you have any idea how many 500-550 HP F-bodies there are out there running low 11s on street tires??? Without traction control.
So that isn't impressive at all.
Shane CarrollAug 04, 2011 Not very impressive work by the Koenigsegg
Andy RogersAug 04, 2011 And WOW that Koenigsegg is loud :)
Andy RogersAug 04, 2011 Also notice how both did terrible 1/4miles considering what they're truly capable of. The stock CCX can do it in the 11s, this one did it in the 13s. The Viper can also do it in the 11s, it did it in the 12a
Sebastian GreyAug 04, 2011 Idk who those drivers are but they are clearly amateurs. That Koenigsegg could easily make a 11 sec 1/4 mile.
Boris TsvaynerAug 04, 2011 That video comes from Moscow, Russia at an event called "Moscow Unlimited 500+" your car must have at least 500 horsepower to participate in these races :)
Chris BjorgolfssonAug 04, 2011 Ken - the z06 he is talking about was supercharged and beat that same viper by a greater margin than the swedish beast
Aaron ManalilAug 04, 2011 Yay for Swedish engineering
Thor OlsonAug 04, 2011 If you look closely at the beginning it sais that the viper is making 750 horsepower.
Stephen IshardAug 04, 2011 But still close enough to say WTF koningsegg or whatever the name is
Luke BaileyAug 04, 2011 aaron, i wouldnt say the viper got spanked....look at the hp n weight diff....viper ftw
Kenneth WilliamsAug 04, 2011 When are people gonna learn that a drag isn't just about how much horsepower you have.
Ken MadisonAug 04, 2011 Jason, Lol a 505 HP Z06 would lose. Might win the 1/8th because of the extremely advanced traction control and launch.
Patrick SchalkAug 04, 2011 Jason they do have that video. And the Koni BARELY wins. It's an awesome race.
Domi BsaibesAug 04, 2011 The koenigsegg is pretty slow for 1/4 of a mile! I mean 1000 hp for 13.3 seconds!
Weston CaloyerAug 04, 2011 Yeah really needs a wing as proven by top gear
Bright SparkAug 04, 2011 Waste of power that koinegzegg needs a rear wing and run slick tyres
Aaron BarkerAug 04, 2011 Ha lol this is the second time I've seen that viper get spanked by something
