I'm sure Dan is looking for the quickest e/t with a modified viper on stock michelins, not a stock car. IMHO, most of the big nitrous cars see little point in running down the quarter mile on pilots with concrete barriers on both sides of the car, most super-charged cars prefer the dyno and have...
I can only think of 2 2000+ models badged "SS". The LS1 camaros can really run and considering this guy only lost a few car lengths, we can only hope its not the redneck nascar chevy..

DV = Double Venom = 66' Cobra Kit Car + Viper V10. I'm assuming the DVII has a worked motor that should make for a very impressive power/weight ratio. 600hp + <3000lbs.
No Idea how you get this thing to hook up. V-10 in front and no weight over the tires. Anyway, I'm sure it's a blast...
Re: VENOM 650 RUNNING 8.90\'S E.T.
Nope.. The best time out of the old KingSnake was a 9.67 @ 149. That was at Norwalk at the Viper Nationals. They have a new car in the works but I'm sure they won't keep it a secret if they raise the bar. I'm looking forward to VOI drag racing, let's just hope...
Cool Video.. BUT.. I really doubt those were 1/4 mile numbers. On that messy excuse for a track and the attitude of that viper, no way it ran low 10's. Put that together with the viper barely touching 4th gear and hitting the brakes and something doesn't add up. Low 10's takes all of fourth and...
Hell, I'm bored.. Doubt you'll ever see one but it would look something like this..

Re: Mark 9\'s? When to call out someone? (long)
COME ON NOW!
The ONLY thing that makes these Texas cars "racecars" is that their owners aren't afraid to RACE them!
All this twisted racecar / track car b.s. is about the worst excuse I've heard yet. "Track car" insinuates some sort of compromise...
So you've seen my hot rod. Nothing like a brown 4-door to strike fear into the hearts of bench racers. Lucky for you that car will stay in the track parking lot. But if ya wanna show up at the track I'm sure I can find someone to take pity on me and let me crawl down the track. Maybe those tech...
I'd like to offer an open invitation to any Houston, Austin, San Antonio or Dallas viper/vette/? owners to join us at River City Raceway (30 miles NE of San Antonio) next Wednesday, Feb 21st. If you'd like a shot at some of the quickest vipers in Houston, here's your chance. The drive is an EASY...
Mike,
John gave good advice. A few more things to keep in mind. If the tires are too dry and the clutch released too slow, the car will lunge forward or tire hop. Be quick to get the RPM's up and "use" the brake only to keep the car from moving. Otherwise, it's easy to stall or push out...
