This is THE worst drag race I’ve ever seen I my life, not only the F40 driver didn’t launch it properly, he also had a reaction time that’s longer than a Toyota Yaris 0-60mph time. And if you’re going to argue about that he want to protect the F40’s clutch, then don’t race with it at all! No one want to see these poorly executed drag race that’s not fair

Go Viper! Love that car, it’s also my dream car!

I wouldn’t even race the F40 if I’m going to drive it like that. You’re just making it look bad

Doug.... the Viper is actually a track car. I'm really stumped that you don't know the history of the Viper as the Doug Demoro. Even if the F40 was launched properly, all motor Viper will beat the boosted F40. People knock the Viper's interior in its early gens, but compare the F40 to the Vipers!! They are both horrible, but the F40 gets a pass because of Italian... Lastly, I still lust for a F40 in the garage and I will own one one day. Pennzoil, give me a crack at an episode. 😬.

Then why even have a 'drag race' if there's massive concern for the clutch etc... ?? Both times, the F40 wasn't even 'launched'... it just gently (eventually) 'rolled away' like it was out in normal busy traffic ! Kind of a pathetic waste of time gang, really.

Great vid, have always wanted to own a Viper!! 👍🏁🏁🙂

Doug has the look of a guy who never thought the Viper was going to sweep the pack

The Viper has more torque which means that it can accelerate harder. Also, the Viper driver looked pretty quick off the mark.

More torque does certainly not mean it accelerates harder. With that logic.. get a semi truck with 2000ft/lb to totally wreck everyone! 😐 Also, Italian super cars are known for having large HP and RPM’s.. but moderate TQ. But they haul the mail… hmm

Doug, You’re allowing your bias against anything American to show through. The Viper wiped up the Floor with Honda and did great against the Ferrari! However you needed to race the Ferrari against the Honda and then the winner of that race against the Viper in a rematch. Then you’ll have the undisputed champ. And if the Honda’s forte is handling then you need to stage a Rally or some such event as well!! I loved the Video as always!! Thanks for the fun!!

Also, from a closeup of the front tire of the NSX, I see it's running 235/40/17s which makes them much larger than the 215/50/15's that the car was originally designed around. The NSX has traction control parameters that require the circumference of the rear tires to be within a certain ration of the front tires so I have to assume the rears also have a 4% larger circumference than the stock 16 inch. It may even be running 18" on the rear which would truly hurt acceleration. This summer I went from the 15/16 original 'fat fives' wheels on my '91 up to the 16/17 1995 NSX rims while keeping the stock circumferences and just the heavier rim slowed me down a tinch in a straight line so it all matters. I've raced 911's and on a twisty track, the stock NSX caught them in the corners but they pulled ahead on the long straights due to their extra horsepower. Since I don't regularly drag race against 911's in my everyday life. I'll take the incredible handling because THAT can be experienced every time I'm out and about.

Oddly enough...it seemed the viper slowed down right before the finish line...very surprising

that is a much bigger event to set up for. Did you notice the people on the side of the track and the truck driving by the end of the track? Also would need more sophisiticated timing equiment, EMTs on stand by, etc. This was a more casual event.

Maybe, maybe, Ferrari should have built that beauty with a beefier transmission.

You want to see what a Viper can do against current muscle cars watch a series that “Four Eyes” did with his GTS! They are still bad !

Perhaps the F-40 realized the exorbitant cost of repairing the drive train if the car was pushed too hard; another reason for spending $52,000 for a new 1992 Viper v. $400,000 for a new 1992 F-40.

​@@Thumper68yeah class wins in a class were they raced DIRECTLY AGAINST FERRARI. They beat Ferrari at their own game in their own cars in teams backed by their own factory. The F40 was the closest to a street legal track car you could get but it was almost exclusively bought by collectors and rich posers who'd use the same "for the racetrack" nonsense you spouted. Meanwhile, people in Corvettes Vipers and 911s were actually hammering their cars around tracks all over the world while F40s just rotted in museums. Even the F40 LM never saw any racing since by then the McLaren F1GTR was out and there was no way Ferrari could keep up.
