[hyph]

In case some of you didn't know. Texas Invitational was held over the past weekend featuring the fastest street cars in the country. The vipers that participated there had a really strong showing taking out 1000-1400whp Twin Turbo Gallardos, Porsche's, vettes and Supras.

The RSI Vipers had a really strong showing being the only shop to take out 2 separate Twin Turbo Lamborghini's.

Here are a couple of RSI Vipers taking out TTGs

There were five Vipers participating. Each of us had over 1,000 rwhp. No slow Vipers attending

Mine was the slowest, at just over 1,000. haha

April 2013. Rockwall, TX (East of Dallas). It isn't open to public, it is invite only.

Here is my in-car vid when I raced against an 850 rwhp turbo Mustang.

Wow that was sweet! It looked like the Blue viper 2929 was fast as hell. You know what hp he had?

 

[Nine Ball]

I believe the blue GTS 2929 makes around 1300-1400 rwhp. Twin-turbo with a 2-spd Powerglide automatic transmission. He placed 2nd at the previous event.

 

[Simms]

Awesome to see vipers back at it representing.

Hats off to all you guys running your cars and having fun.

Here is the BEST video that has surfaced so far. Round 1 of the King of the Streets. Just as a reference, the cars going over 160 mph are 1,000+ rwhp cars.

Def some sick cars. Maybe vipers can take home the overall win next year. That Vette will be tough to beat.
