A Viper is a bit like one of my cars - a Porsche 930 that has 514HP & weighs 2650 lbs.....no way you can ever safely apply full throttle in 1st or 2nd gear.
If I didn't run track tires on the street, 3rd gear would be partially unusable too.

A power to weight ratio of almost 5 to 1, (a bit *lower* P/W than the Viper) assures you that, as a newbie, an attempt at trying to briefly tap the potential on a test drive will result in an accident.

If you ain't felt that much power, it is truly startling and uncontrollable.
