I recently purchased a 97 Viper GTS with 3" exhaust and gears, I'm not sure what gear is in that car but in 4th ( 1:1 ) It would run 42MPH at 2000 rpm as compared to my stock gear'd Viper which runs at 55MPH in 4th att he same RPM. I'm wondering how the gears effect the MPH at the dragstrip. The car ran as follows:
60' 2.057
330 5.520
1/8 8.236
MPH 91.60
1000 10.54
1/4 12.472
MPH 116.86
It was very hot out this day, very humid here in Orlando, Florida.. there was a new GT0 with 400HP running 13.6 @ 102 so I think all of the cars were a little down on power. I was on stock tires and launched very easy at about 1700rpm, I got some wheel hop off the line, also I dropped my tire pressure to 23psi.
