Great video! I'm curious as to what kind of 1/4 mile time the Hornet can pull - the ZR1 is around 10.8 @ 132 MPH - ridiculously fast for a stock car, but doesn't stand a chance in a 1/2 mile race against a jet!

Read the story on Moror Trend's website: Blue Devil vs. Blue Angel

On page 5 in the article this graph can be found:

Haha! Wow - that's about what I thought it'd look like but it's really cool to see it on a graph, massive difference in acceleration.

Lighting those burners must really be a kick in the pants.

Don't know about a F/A-18 but in a F-16 it is one nice kick.

Haha yea I heard you've got a few hours in the back of one, that's too cool, must have been quite a ride!

I think she meant... F-16 only has 1 engine, so "those" burners become "this" burner!

Nope, Ray got it right. I have rode in the F-16.
