Default RC-F vs Mercedes AMG GTS (video)...

Predictable results but still fun runs with a sub-supercar...

Just checked one on Ebay, $145k C'mon Man You should have just put up a video of the RCF vs a 2015 Viper, it's A LOT Cheaper that $145k.

and if i find a video of an RC-F racing a Viper...i'll post that, too. its not about if it wins or loses...i just like seeing fast cars go at each other.

oh...and 'it' was in the shop because a fuel injector connection came off after the father in law hit a nice sized pothole.

^ On juice. But only time will tell before the trans or block say no. I believe the SPDS trans is only rated to 400tq.

I can't speak for the RCF variant of the 2ur, but the ISF block and transmission will handle 700whp without a problem if the setup is done properly. I really don't see the RCF having much trouble at those power levels
