Re: What\'s a good time at Thunderhill?
well, it's all driver skill, but to try an answer..
dead stock, as in "as delivered" (no abs, street brakes (pads/fluid) road course speaking, stock street radials) with an *extreme expert* such as Millen (who did the R&T comparo test) driving, figure it would place near the top of that list, around a 2:09 ~ 2:10. those laps in the R&T article were where each car was being flogged for quite a while, not just trying to cherry pick one fast lap..
look at
http://www.viperdays.com/ they've plenty of lap times.
well driven vipers run 2:05ish on track tires with decent brakes, but again, it's all driver, a pretty stockish gts was running 06's on a good air day last March.
anything under an 04 would be considered the limit of a 'non trailered street car daily driver type thang'...
your "average" viper (taking all the older rt/10's, etc into account), whose driver does some track days but isn't an expert would be happy to turn 12's at TH. all comments assume the cyclone is in use, not the bypass.
