you must be insane? That guy ran a 2:12 lap. Tommy archers best lap at sebring in the wcgt race was 2:14.
I ran a 2:12 at vir and crushed all of the stock vipers. I ran a 2:32 at sebring my first time there, on bad tires. I would bet there won't be many stock vipers breaking the 2:35 mark.
Hi Ron!
I would have to say from what I have seen on paper the SRT 10 is a superior car to the z06 in just about every category.
I have not seen any on track, since most clubs don't let them run without a rollbar...until a couple of weeks ago at viperdays. I had two with me in the advanced...
This is a funny thread! Gotta know that such a title would bring all of us vette trolls out that are so bored we are surfing the viper site! :laugh:
Anyway, if you are talking about drag racing, I give the nod to the viper. On a road course, it is very unusual for a stock viper to turn a...
Talking about events before and after is almost as fun as the events themselves. We talked about this event a lot on CF since we had 12 vettes show up. People that atttended fun events are usually interested in seeing pics and videos, as it reminds them of the fun they had. Many are also...
Pete did you get up on the wrong side of the bed this am? You sure are feisty today!
I think 2:08 is a bit quick for my car on victoracers since the T1 record is 2:09.

I seem to remember you running 2:22 in your neon when I was there...
On a road course, especially tight ones, I'm sure an elise could blow a viper away. On autocross definite nod to the elise, drag race, forget it, viper by a mile.
I have to agreee with Allen that I would not be bragging about winning an event with a 2:18 in SS. I do think that 2:12 with stock tires is an awesome time and those guys are definitely driving the car to the max. I did manage to get a 2:12 in my underpowered z06, and I am looking forward to...
Janni,
What format is asf? I don't have a codec for it.
Here is a vid I just made, not much passing action though.

Got my first video up, big file, 72mb. 15 min, not much action as far as passing, group was pretty wide open since we were gridded by time...

I attended the event and was very happy as I was able to run a 2:12.4 in a stock 2001 z06 with victoracers. Thanks to everyone there and especially to the guys who rode with me and helped me improve.
The event was extremely well run as before, and one of the best I have attended.
I am editing...
I am signed up for Sebring with speedventures April 24-25, just got an email that they are going to cancel the event since they only have 18 people!
Myself and several other guys who are going are trying to recruit more people, since this is such a great event. Open track format, 2 days for...
I run a valentine, and it performed well on my trip to fla over the holidays. Monday when we left the cops were out in force in GA. Just south of atl in henry county, I almost got caught. Driving my truck sped up to 95, going up a hill with an overpass at the crest. I noticed two suspicious...
I have toyed with the idea of buying a viper as my next car. I have ridden in one, and thought it was pretty impressive. I would like to drive one, but no one has been willing to let me take one for a drive so far... maybe Pete will let me take his around the block.
As far as american cars...
Jim, IM NOT OBSESSED! J/K . The main reason I posted the video was for the people that went to vir to check it out and remember some good times, it was a great event.
I have to admit, when I first started doing DE's I tried really hard to turn faster laps than all types of cars, 911tt's...
Great race, great to see the viper win! Mcann sure got beat up on in the end tho, those guys aren't fooling around out there! TO bad he couldn't hold it in for 3rd.
It will be interesting to follow then next two races, how much penalty weight is the viper going to get?
HI Pete, that's cool I will be driving on Sat as well. Are you driving your Viper on Sun or the neon?
I'll stop by on sat. PS. hope you don't mind that I have been sharing your road atlanta map with some of the guys.

HI Pete, I know it is not racing, Ryan and I are just out having fun. We talk alot of smak, and then go out there and do our best. When we see one another in the rear view we try to stay ahead, and if the other catches up wave him by and try to keep up. I don't feel I am pushing it to the...
Alan, thanks for the critique! That was my first weekend at the track, so I know I have lot's to learn. My best time was a 2:17 so I need 5 secs to catch your 2:12, I don't think it is going to happen on those tires, plus it was very hot, over 90 killing my power.
BTW flyin ryan was the...
Hi Guys, I was running on stock tires, that was a rule from Skip if you didn't have a roll bar. Kuhmo ecsta mx. Those things make a ton of noise. Tire doesn't have awesome grip but ok. Fun tire to drive on because it is very predictable and will squawl like hell before it lets go, and then...
Hi Guys, thought you would enjoy this vid...hope it is not too boring. The bulk of the vid is me vs. a race prepped viper. Don't know his specs anyone know? His car says big dog racing on it I believe. I was able to pass him the first day, but he learned the track and improved. Thought I...
