    Viper vs. Z06 1/4 mile time question

    He's been banned on other forums as well. In fact, he's bragging on ViperForums about the "beating" he's giving Jamie on this forum. You guys need to be nice to him, maybe he'll give you a deal on cleaning your carpets. S.

    Just curious...why does your '97 have cast pistons? S.

    Advantage: Viper vs Motorcycle

    Yeah...I'd take a run against a liter bike. I'm trying to set up something with a ZX14. And yes...I am a "Viper owner" despite "Enthusiast" under my SN. S.

    Evan Smith sets ET and MPH record for stock domestic cars in 2008 Viper Roadster

    There have been quite a few doubters who called Ranger out on CF.com. I never really read those threads in detail, but you are correct. S.

    Evan Smith sets ET and MPH record for stock domestic cars in 2008 Viper Roadster

    No he didn't. He went 10's on DR's. Furman is the only C6Z that went 10's stock. All you have to do is peruse CF.com. I don't recall any magazines running 127 mph. Regardless, my point stands...Furman's and Ranger's cars have pretty much run 3-4 mph faster than just about any other Z out...

    No he didn't. Ranger went 11.14@127 bone stock on stock tires. Jamie Furman's car is the only "documented" C6Z in the 10's. Interestingly enough and with the exception of only one other car, Ranger's and Furman's cars are at least 3-4 mph faster than any other car on the C6 Z06 "Fast List"...

    Orange/White GTS

    Silver/blue is a great combo, but that car looks fantastic. It is definitely one-of-a-kind. S.

    What are Paxton Vipers running in the 1/4?

    And I believe that was at a 2100' track on lower boost than what the car dyno'd. That's Alternative's car you're referring to. There will be a few 900+ rwhp Paxton Vipers running at Atco in April, we'll see how they compare to your Roe car. S.

    Switch to 3.55 gears

    +1 I went from 3.55's back to stock 3.07's when the Paxton went on the car. At 900+ rwhp, you don't want more gear. S.

    Paxton Viper vs. N/A Viper

    I think to be fair, you have to compare a relatively modded Roe car to a similar Paxton car. The Paxton car is going to make well over 900 rwhp, the Roe is going to make a bit over 700 rwhp. I think you'll be looking at about a 10-mph difference in trap speed. S.

    Paxton Viper vs. N/A Viper

    Are there any non-nitroused Roe cars in the 9's? S.

    Paxton Viper vs. N/A Viper

    I'm not sure a Roe vs. Paxton comparison is fair if you're limiting the comparison to cars with similar power levels. The problem is that the Paxton will make significantly more peak power than the Roe, and that's its advantage. S.

    Paxton Viper vs. N/A Viper

    You would have to have a pretty serious setup to make 1000rwhp with a Paxton. I'm assuming you're talking about a fully built shortblock and you'd be needing to run a pretty healthy amount of boost. SRK's pump gas Paxton setup made 1022rwhp, but that's pretty much the strongest Paxton car I...

    Paxton Viper vs. N/A Viper

    I don't think I'd go with 2.73's in a Paxton car. Most Paxton cars will probably be in the 700-750rwhp range. I'd stick with the stock 3.07's. S.

    Paxton Viper vs. N/A Viper

    The reason to go to a numerically lower gear is to make the car a bit more controllable on the street with a radial. At 900+ rwhp (or even 700-800 rwhp), you don't need any more gear than 3.07's. And you don't even need those with a TT car making over 1000 rwhp. I swapped the 3.55's in my car...
