    Speeding Ticket Stories

    my old license was rittled with staple holes (all you IL drivers will know that means lots of tickets.) my new license has a couple already, has been suspended, is being fixed though. In highschool, the main judge in lake county knew me by name, and always chuckled whenever I walked into the...

    What is the true top speed of a Viper???

    I've been a passenger in a 99RT/10 with the top off at about 175 (not trying for top speed), and with the top on at 180 (not trying for top speed). And been in a 97 GTS at 180 and a 96GTS accelerating HARD through 175 with another 96 next to us Tom

    198 mph in the standing mile?

    A Supra guy around here, Marco, Drag races in the NHRA now. He said he was hitting about 192 in the standing mile. His car runs the quarter in mid to high 9's. The TT viper that Hennessy built did 196 in the standing mile (according to Motor Trend) and that car ended up running a high 9 in the...

    How does one calculate standing mile MPH based on HP and weight?

    I doubt that your stock viper hit 180 in a mile (although it will be pretty close). And as for going out and driving the car, thats not gonna be a problem for Paolo, TRUST ME!!! I think he wants to get an idea of possibly how fast his car is gonna be when he gets it back. Paolo maybe you'll have...

    How does one calculate standing mile MPH based on HP and weight?

    I happen to know that a basically modded viper will hit just under 180 in the standing mile (wonder who told me that). You have to remember the drag that is coming into play above 120mph due to air resistance. Hell the Venom 800 hit like 192 according to Motor trend. (thats when it dynoed...

    Impressions on Heffner's Performance

    Re: Impressions on Heffner\'s Performance Paolo, Glad to hear your car is alright. Can't wait to see it again. With all the power on tap (not that it'll be anything compared to my beast, yeah right), i have to make one request. 5pt harness for the passenger. Yeah, its a bouncy ride sometimes...

    VOI drags:THE REAL STORY

    Jason, Let me guess what TOOOFST's philosophy was on cops pulling you over, Something about having to earn it. In the famous words of me and TOOOFST "did we just pass a cop, oh well" Tom

    VOI7 Drag Picts

    1st thread last pic, Black RT-10 burnout is TOOOFST. TOOOBAD you couldn't leave the top off so everyone could be blinded by that new rollbar. It looks badass. (How about that snake on the gascap) Tom

    Who makes the best headers/exhaust system for 94-95 Vipers?

    In addition to notching the headers you need a couple of washers on each bolt or shorter bolts. The car definately pulled harder than before the change (TOOOFST's customer's car that is), and it sounds great. Tom

    California Impounding Vipers

    Don't know about other states but in IL racing is totally subject to the officers opinion. So yes, if he feels two cars are pulling away from a light and a cop feels they're racing its street racing and thats the final word. Hard to disprove and sucks *** . Cop tried to give me a ticket once for...

    Viper Tuners/horsepower packages

    As for Butch's car and TOOOFST's car I just happened to be at the track when each of them ran their posted times. And i do have to say, they ran high 10's but both had traction issues down the whole track. You could hear Butch's car cring for traction throughout the run. You couldn't hear it on...

    Should I have lost against a Porsche Turbo?

    Paolo, first off, chubby, chubby, ok yeah i am chubby. We did have about a 70 weight deficit in people, 180+220=400 vs approx 150+180=330 and you forgot to mention that we had an almost full tank of gas and the porsche had almost no gas. How little gas you may be asking? Well approximately 4-5...

    Paul's Spiderman GTS -- PICS!

    Re: Paul\'s Spiderman GTS -- PICS! Paul, What year Z in the backround, 87-89? And I can't see the trim to tell if turbo or not. Anything done to it as well. I noticed your RT 10 plate is not a Z, is that due to this Z? Tom 1986 300ZX Turbo about ot start that engine build.

    UPDATE: SUPERCARS CHICAGO DYNO SHEETS

    Scott, What a great time. Even though I didn't dyno my car (hopefully new ECU will be here soon so bigger power soon then dyno), I had a great time. I do have to say though, I now hate the sound of gas escaping from a container. I don't know if I'll ever even be able to use one of those little...
