The first thing about racing is knowing where your car is "better" than the other car you are racing. I use to have a Pontiac Astre (Pontiac version of a Vega) with a 406 small block Chevrolet. I use to destroy big block Chargers, Mustangs, and Corvette's (just to name a few) from a stoplight to stoplight race. Any of these cars would have blown past me in a race from a 35+mph "punch". The car would jump at least a car length ahead from the launch and the traction limited big blocks just couldn't catch up in the 1/8 mile race.
The Viper has some of the biggest tires on any factory vehicle and like the Vette it can put the power to the ground. A big block Cobra at a 35+mph "punch" has no problem with traction and is going to smoke a Viper or Vette every time, no brag just fact.
