Re: More Progress Towards The 10's In My Mildly Modified 06 Viper - Turned An 11.3 @
Way to go. 11.1's are coming. Keep pushing to run that 10 sec pass.
Making a 10 sec pass in a slightly modded gen III or a bone stock gen IV is a difficult task to achieve. There are a lot of incredible drivers in this country who will never have the chance to post really fast times because of their geographical location. I'm not taking anything away from the...
Hey Speedfreak, we are have the same goal. This spring it turned an 11.40 @ 123.02 1.78 60 ft. on PS2's, with K&N, corsa, random cats and a tune. Since then I too went on a diet with the six spoke wheels and eurotech rotors. My DA was 1200 ft. at the time of the run. I feel confident the car...
So true. I can't afford to tear up the tranny and diff, but I can swing a half shaft when it does happen. I've been lucky so far, nothing has broke yet, that's why I stick with PS2's. The tires are the weakest link in the drive train.
Great read. I wish could have made it. Sounds like a lot of fun hanging out with the Viper Nation. Ralph sounds like a heck of a guy. I only hear great things about him. I know he'll do us proud and produce an awesome Gen V.
Your times are fantastic Tony. What really impresses me is how often you drive that 9 second monster on the street. I bet you drove it to the track, dropped that time and drive it home.
11.4 is good. MPH is low. I just came from the track tonight and the air wasn't good in Atlanta either. 80 degrees. I ran 11.8 on my first run at 122 mph. Second and final run I blew the tires and shut it down. Next time let the car sit about 1 hour with the hood up. Once you can put your...
I've contemplated making the change to a Gen 4. 600 hp would be great. I make 490 now to the tires. 20- 25K for 40 more rwhp just does make sense to me for what I use the car for. If I were a competitive road course guy, I would have already made the switch. I'm going a different route. 30k...
Thanks for the info. I have Billet Specialty wheels on my truck. It's very difficult to keep them from spotting up. Junkman, what brand of sealant do you use?
Sounds like something with the box. It's probably a simple fix. With your mods, most dealers won't touch the car. Def. get in touch with the shop that did the install. Good luck.
Damn I haven't been on the site for a few days. All this over a video. Twister is a good dude. Whether you agree with him or not, he is a true car nut like the rest of us. Hell, while in Hawaii, he let me drive both of those cars to see how I liked them. We are all big boys. We can give and...
There are a lot of knowledge people giving their opinions and defending them to the bitter end. Fact, the use of lower gears that hook usually produce faster ETA’s and slower trap speeds. Ex, the slick tire muscle car that run 10.2 at 118 mph. In general 1 tenth gained on the 60ft = 2 tenths on...
