you are right in THAT Ferrari was not better then the Porsche(I knew I
was missing letter in that name.) But if you compared the best Ferrari
had to offer, period, to the best Porsche could make I'll bet the
Ferrari will win.  The cheapest car Ferrari makes is over a $100k, they
make cars that sell for close to a mill.  Porsche is cheaper to buy to
start with but every single part, and there are WAY more than in
Ferrari's, is SOOO EXPENSIVE!!!  You would be better off buying a
Ferrari.  A used caliper for a Porsche can easily get as much as a
grand.  As to the places, the Viper won like seven of the ten
Catagories, tieing one with the Porsche which won another as well, maybe
two.  I can't remember who one the other two but I'm pretty sure the
Ferrari got one of them.  The Viper was consistently first and the
Porsche was consistently second.  The Ferrari was consistently Third,
but you have to remember that THAT Ferrari was one of the worst they
sell and that EVERY OTHER CAR, with the possible exception of the
Porsche, WAS THE BEST THEY HAD TO OFFER.  It's like comparing my mothers
Chevy Celebrity stationwagon to the Mustang Colbra and having the Colbra
win, BARELY!
