Congratulations!! to Dan Spata!! of St. Charles Il. for his successful 2003 racing season.
Dan drove his SVS prepared Viper with great skill, while competing in the many events held by the IL. V.C.A.
Dan took top honors in many events including:
“The Triple Crown” (sponsored by Roanoake...
I shifted too early at around 5800rpm. I was supposed to have shifted somewhere around 7200 to compensate for the drop in rpm's because of 6th gear being an overdrive gear.
So at the point when you get back on the gas in 6th, you are now way to low in rpm to keep your momentum going.
For over...
HEY EVERYONE! I think we found the REAL OSAMA BIN LADEN! Its JUANMOTIME disguising himself and afraid to come out of his cave! He's somwhere in a wharehouse in Naperville IL...or is it Dallas Texas. Juanmotime (OSAMA) do you aspire to TERRORIZE SVS and their accomplishments? Do you disguise...
Do you know this to be fact? If so then why not place the facts on the board like SVS did? It seems to me like it has been kept from everyone, and you are going from someones word......and not the facts. If Gary A made 845rwhp @ 12psi then what was the HP level @ 9psi. C-mon if you guys were at...
Thanks Russ........I love to see someone understand.
I look at it a little like:
Person 1: Blows their load
Person 2: Teases it, Rubs it, Brings it to the point of.....and holds back, Teases some more.......and plays with it as long as they like.

Trying to clear up a few things…………..
FIRST. – The detuning issue.
Racing and competition in the arena of land speed is about MANAGING RISK. Any form of competition racing is about managing risk. Even if its NHRA. Lets take Austin Coil. Don’t you think he manages the items that effect the...
NO RATS HERE - just SNIFF AND SCURRY ("Who Moved My Cheese?")
I just went in and analyzed the data from the Motec (this is the first time I have went into the program and analyzed any data by myself, it was quite simple) on each run. My earlier post of 191 degrees was incorrect. Keep in mind...
Do you think if JH was there with only 670rwhp He would have came anywhere near 197. I dont think so. Somethings missing like a 250 shot of N.O.S.
What sanctioned event was it that JH supposedly pulled off this number.
Hey! Thanks for saying we have the best Vipers in the world. That was a...
Fix for the links not working for the boost and dyno chart.

How about it? Can anyone out there tell me why we ran only to the top of 5th gear using a 3.54 and achieved 200mph. It was part of our watertight plan. I see all kinds of charts and equations and Data that shows...
Let me see if I can explain this.
When we went to the salt flats we ran in excess of 25psi. That is not stated in the magazine but I have all the Motec data that proves it. If you read the story from Viper Mag you will see were I said I shifted to early from 5th to 6th. We were using the stock...
We did not detune the Stryker. Im not sure what you even mean by this? If I said detune I believe I put things in perspective by saying we selectively chose our set-up to go to this race. See... competition and racing is about having a plan, and our plan was watertight. We are not the ones with...
Let me ask everybody something? Would you shake the hand of a competitor, regardless of what level he finished at, if before the event even started you were told by 4 other competitors how much this certain competitor told them how much he hated your guts and was also bad rapping your company...
Our goal was to set-up the car to go 200mph. With our gearing calculations (3.54) and stock trans we knew that 850rwhp w/ 960 rwftlbs @ 7psi would take us to just about 200.
We also knew that if there was no need to push the car, then we wouldn’t. See, we didn’t run around and shoot our mouths...
Nice try. You are so far off. still think its the RS? Man with 852rwhp and 960rwftlbs of torque at 7psi our competition was anihilated.
If a viper chuggs black smoke (looked like a diesel car) all the way through its run and you are told it ran out of gas. what could cause this? many people...
Thanks for the congrats guys and all the supporting comments!
The great part about this event is that our testing and tuning has came full circle.
I have some interesting video clips to show and will have them posted soon.
Wow! what a difference between then and now! 11.29 seems quite far...
Yeehaw! what an incredible weekend in Neebrasky ! This event was about a small town (pop. 500) of great people that gave everything they had to make you feel welcome. The town of Arnold, and the Sandhills 1 mile shootout and O.R.R event changed my whole outlook on Nebraskan’s and their state...
KepRght,
Thank you for the overall support. We will be looking forward to the time when you are ready to proceed with a TT system for a Viper. You previously posted your interest in a TT system for a Corvette? The following links show a superior engineered system that is flexible (Upgradeable...
