    Race video of Lambo / Z06 / Viper / Supra

    I've always wondered how the Lambo and Viper would match up. Looks pretty even although I agree that the Viper might be mod'd or the Z06 gave up early. That is one stinkin' fast Supra though!

    Anyone interested in a repairable 99 ACR?

    The only thing that would concern me is your comment... "The engine runs, but will not start due to the damage to the evaporative canister assembly." Can you elaborate? The rest looks like minor repairs for a body-work guy. I'll keep an eye on the bidding and depending on where it goes, I...

    1/4 mile times for modified Viper

    Just a guess, but since you weren't getting any responses so far I thought I'd throw my two cents in. I suspect you should get roughly 1.8 to 2.0 second 60 ft and low 12's for an ET.

    Stumped the gurus? Still need an answer...

    I posted a question earlier and still need help. I can't get my driver side door open. It's acting like it is locked and the latch won't click open. Since the door is closed I can't get at the screws to take the panels off and get it open! I have taken off what I can to get at it and can't...

    Help, can't open my door!

    Help, can\'t open my door! Anyone have any ideas how to get the inside door panels off without being able to open the door. I think my door latch is stuck and the door won't open. But without opening it I can't take the panels off to get at it to fix the problem. It sounds like the latching...

    Getting BASS sound out of your RT/10 - What do you have? Subwoofers?

    Does anyone make the front grill light that the Knight Industries Two Thousand (KITT) car had...you know on the show in the 80's with David Hasselhoff! I want one of those, but I want the sound effects it had too, the whissshhh - whissshhh sound. Sometimes if I drink too much I make that sound...

    Looking for tonneau cover...

    Mine was a replacement from a '95 I think. I have a '94 and it fits. It is the one that snaps in on the dash and leaves a hole for the driver I think...it's been a long time since I've put it on!

    Will a 300 shot of NOS break the car loose in 3rd or 4th gear?

    Using a HP calculator (based on speed) if your car is around 3500 pounds you are making about 670 HP. That should get you a 10.1 trap time with proper traction. Go to this site to try the calculator yourself... http://www.dsm.org/tools/calchp.htm

    Will a 300 shot of NOS break the car loose in 3rd or 4th gear?

    Yeah, at 135 I would think you could almost break into the 9's!! If you go to dragtimes.com you'll find Vipers running similar speeds and be at 10.1 seconds. You need new tires!! What else have you done to your car because a 200 shot of Nitrous shouldn't get you there alone. My car is modded...

    Will a 300 shot of NOS break the car loose in 3rd or 4th gear?

    Just also realized that you are "button control" Nitrous while mine comes on with WOT. But I too have an override button that I could use to "flick" it on I guess. Maybe I'll have to try that at 135 mph and see what happens! No flame was intended with my post, just hoping I can tune my car...

    Will a 300 shot of NOS break the car loose in 3rd or 4th gear?

    OK, I'm willing to admit I'm wrong. I wasn't trying to disagree with you and I haven't seen you run, to be honest I hadn't even read your earlier post before I made mine. If you are hitting 135 mph that is pretty serious horsepower. But I'm curious then too, why are you sideways at those...

    Vipermed airbox and ice =scary power

    What about re-routing the air-conditioner to blow into the airbox? I know the A/C takes horsepower away but what if you used it to cool the engine/intake and then turned it off for the run. Or maybe the cool air would out perform the drag the A/C takes on the engine and then you could blow the...

    Will a 300 shot of NOS break the car loose in 3rd or 4th gear?

    I was serious. A 200 shot isn't a Jato rocket! There are two ways to get sideways at 135 mph with a 200 shot. One is to turn sharply, the other is to miss a shift and downshift to break the tires loose. Punching the gas in 3rd or 4th gear at those speeds on a sticky track will not break...

    Crank your steering wheel sharply.

    Will a 300 shot of NOS break the car loose in 3rd or 4th gear?

    I use BTR's propane/nos combo kit. I have bullet cats and free flow mufflers but stock headers. The usual smooth tubes, etc. I suspect my car is about the same as a Gen II car HP with my mods before I hit the Nitrous. I also have 3.55 gears. So it sounds like we have a similar set up. I...

    Viper folks making a dream come true!

    The main race is at 1pm on Sunday and I believe we are doing the Dodge Viper and Truck parade lap at around 11:15am. The Vipers will parade around with the celebrities (I'm hoping for Pamela Anderson!) and the trucks take the Indy drivers around. Hopefully you can find it televised on a local...

    Viper Handling vs. Z06 handling

    For what it is worth, coming from a crappy racer, I took third place in our local Viper autocross event with my Gen I car. First and second were taken by Gen III SRT's and much better drivers. But from there on I think the drivers were pretty much similar. So despite the fact that everyone...

    What 1/4 mile times do a stock 94-95 rt run

    What were your 1/8th mile times on those 1/4 mile runs? The last drags I did with my 94 RT was only on a 1/8th mile strip. My best 1/8th mile was 7.9ish. There were guys there saying divide your 1/8th mile time in half and add it to the 1/8th mile time you got to roughly calculate 1/4 mile...

    A JATO rocket would cause that, where can I get one?
