2013 Viper & 2014 SLS AMG Black-Series Duke It Out On Motor Trend's Head 2 Head

Motor Trend pits two 600 plus hp monsters against each other for a new episode of the magazine's Head 2 Head video series. In what may seem like an odd match-up, Johnny Lieberman throws the 2013 SRT Viper & the 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series into the ring, for what auto fans could call a tarmac battle royale.

In the video below we'll see the two beasts duke it out in the real world on canyon twisties, then an all-out quarter mile drag race, finishing up with hot laps around Laguna Seca with Randy Pobst.

 

oh the sound!! AMG V8's are some of the best sounding motors, period.

 

OUCH to that cf lip on 00:32

 

I toight the Viper would do way better considering it has higher torque and lower weight. It's manual tho...but still.
