that was incredibly staged. The driver of the Viper took every turn extremely wide missing every Apex and allowing the BMW to pass. Then on the last straight-away the Viper seemingly can't out accelerate it and they come across the line perfectly together. Clarkson even says that the Vipers problem is under-steer. I own a Viper and I can tell you that understeering a viper is not its problem... the problem is the exact opposite.
Don't forget that different cars are suited better to different tracks. This was filmed on The Streets of Willow Springs in CA which is a small and EXTREMELY technical track that favors smaller cars.
I had my first performance driving school out there years ago and I was embarrassing v8 Mustangs and 944 Porsches in my weasely 2.0 VW Jetta.
Now, if they had crossed the street and raced on the big track, the Viper would've crushed the M Roadster. Too many long straights.
@ScroogeM
What are you talking about?!? This is the BIG TRACK and there's no WAY a BMW can take a VIPER Overther. THIS IS SO BIASED, IT'S PATHETIC!!!

Different cars for different tracks... fucking British people.... Although I own a 09' Z4M I feel this video is biased.
