Viper Owner
Takes place in Mexico. 
The redemption video is here, another video from the Supra will be posted soon.
The first race I lost to the Supra by 3-4 car lengths. I spun through 3rd and part of 4th from a 70mph roll. He never pulled away, but I was never able to chase him down and close the gap.
Since the last race I have lowered the car via Aldan shocks/springs, put on SSR's with drag radials, and had it four corner balanced and aligned. He has added a new intake and I believe changed cams(?), not sure on the cams, but overheard that from someone. I make 770rwhp/730rwtq, he makes 650rwhp(although I heard that may be low?) last I heard, and that was before the changes he made.

This race we again went from 70mph. We both hooked great with no spin and both made our shifts, etc. The chase car filming is a LS2 GTO(owned by LoBoost on the GTO forums) with the APS TT kit making north of 600rwhp. The bike you see in the video is a Kawasaki, not sure what model. I let off about 200ft or so before the bridge when I hit 180mph, which was confirmed by the Kawasaki who hit 181mph on his electronic speedometer.
Big thanks go out to Underground Racing for building an awesome car! Brady I bet you wish you had this car back. This car is a monster and its barely being worked on the 8lb pulley.
And bigger thanks go out to Garth, Danny(Supra owner) and Mikey at Leading Edge Performance for setting the car up since I got it. When I got this car back in July, it was a handful to drive on stock pilots. Every rollon I did resulted in massive tire spin from any mph except when I lugged it. Now, it is a 10000% better car!! With the changes that Leading Edge has done and the tune they put in, the car is a breeze to drive now. I could have let go of the steering wheel at 180mph and the car would track straight, I can mash the gas in 3rd/4th/5th with no more spin or the rear end whipping out to the side.
Props to Garth for taking me out yesterday and running me through a couple runs and giving me some pointers on my driving. This car is by far the most powerful car I have ever owned or dreamed of owning and was starting to scare the crap out of me with the way it was driving.
Thanks to Danny for the rematch. You are a great competitor and good sport about everything. Although a little birdie told me upgrades are already being planned/on order for round 3. Hopefully you can get those done before I leave for So Cal. You have 2 more Sundays before the Viper hits the road to So Cal. to hunt other Supras.
