I've done it twice this year. Kept it in 2nd gear for the entire run, but could only go 1/3 throttle before wheelspin became excessive - stock Michelin Pilots at 29 psi all around and Roe S/C. Had a great time and got first place trophy for my class (it helped that I was also the only one in my class ).
I run mine with the Gulf Coast SCCA in Pensacola when I can. 29-30 seems to work best...don't overinflate it'll feel like you're on skates...spin city.
Couple of tips: After the run, do not set the parking brake...crack the hood if time permits between runs and check tire temp between runs...edge, center, far edge...even temps will give you a good pressure setting for that day/conditions.
Learn to steer with the rear, and watch how you brake. Without ABS the fronts will lock easily. That said, the Viper is a great AX car and if anything, the ZO6s are lighter, but not better.
Smooth is fast for sure in AX. I tend to do slow-in and fast-out as well, thus braking later and harder. I am no pro and sliding (throttle induced oversteer) seems more useful in very tight corners than larger sweeping turns. It all depends on the course layout.
