| LOL. That's not a new Viper and even if you can't tell from looking at it, you should know right away from it smoking the tires due to lack of ABS |

No shit? lol I just copy the title from the web page. You'd still be surprised with a panic stop like that, I've done it in the Marauder before and wheels locked up. ABS works better with firm pressure not mashing it to the ground. |

| It is a Viper, just because you have ABS does not mean they wont lock up.... |

| Watching that car stop reminds me of a comparison Edmunds did back in 2000 with the Cobra R, Viper ACR and Z06. The Viper did the exact same thing in a braking test. Retested it in '03 with ABS and there was zero smoke. |
