Just been reading JUNE 2002 AUTOCAR..(AS YOU DO),AND NOTICED THE BEST THE ZONDA S COULD MUSTER FOR THE 1/4 MILE WAS "ONLY" 11.8 AT 129 MPH!(0-100 IN 7.4!!!) NOT BAD FOR A CLAIMED 220MPH £300,000 SUPERCAR.BUT I KNOW OF A SLIGHTLY MODDED BLUE/WHITE(ALWAYS THE FASTEST COLOUR,DON,T YOU AGREE NAD!)THAT MANAGED A 1/4 MILE TIME OF 11.6 AND OUR OWN FAIR CAR WITH SLIGHT MODS AND 5 YEAR OLD WORN TYRES A 12.1 AT 127 MPH(NOT TO FAR OFF THE PACE).CAN,T BE BAD FOR A CAR THAT COST 1/5 OF THE PRICE TO BUY AND A 1/100 TH OF THE COST TO MAINTAIN!SO NEXT TIME YOU SEE NAD BLAST DOWN THE 1/4 MILE,REMEMBER IF IT WERE UP AGAINST A PAGINI ZONDA S,IT WOULD BE THE ZONDA THAT WOULD BE LOOKING AT THE BACK OF A PAIR OF TAIL PIPES!!(VIPERS.....JUST LOVEM,ALWAYS HAVE....ALWAYS WILL!)

Um, Venom:

Why don't you just compare your Diablo (in its stock trim, as that would be fairer) against the Pagani Zonda S?

You could always sell a Viper which is marginally quicker than a Pagani Zonda S by a tenth of a second and sell it for £50,000 less than a Pagani Zonda - that'll be in the £250,000 (I can't remember the exact price of the Zonda) - you could say to prospective buyers that this car is quicker than a Pagani Zonda S which costs £50,000 more, and with the £50,000 you've saved, you can modify the car to make it even faster and pretty much untouchable on the road in a straight line, or if you wish, on a circuit.

And you typed everything after capital J for June in caps - didn't you notice? lol.

Yes i meant to LOL!(Coz i wanted to bring this info to everyones attention)If you found out that a U.K Corvette was faster than a ZONDA S you,d be excited!Buy the way the Diablo idea has been passed on a its to slow,and 1.Can be thrashed by a Viper & 2.Might be beaten by a Modded Corvette,so I,m sticking to my Venom.
