Why I bought this car

[MtHam ACR]

So I could get around those high horsepower mustangs/et al that don't know how to drive.

It's working.

I'm at thunderhill this weekend with the nor cal shelby club and I just had to post I have to say I'm having the BEST F***ing time going around all these guys that used to just be a pain in the as*. You know the guys, 500 HP but need to stop the car in order to turn it and when you enter the passing zone the guys put their foot through the carburator. Well the Viper is a little different story than my Cobra, he he.

I actually have a great brake setup now too -- Hawk Blues, Motul600 and Porsche air defectors. The car slows reliably now!

Met Gavin (Monterey) 96 GTS blue/white out here and he also turned me on to some great brake cooling tips too. Thanks Gavin.

I LOVE THIS CAR. 2300mi and the relationship gets stronger with each mile!

Sounds like great fun!

Yep, it's just a bit better platform to built on. Ha!

Eric,

Hope that you are not talking about my Mustangs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

1965 Mustang/Shelby 550hp Laguna 1.44
TH 2.06

1969 Mustang convertible 675hp Laguna 1.41
TH 2.03

1991 Roush Mustang T/A 620hp TH 1.55

I only have about 1.5 hours of seat time with the T/A but I expect this car to be a low to mid 30 at Laguna and a mid to high 40 at TH.

Was good to see you and I am glad that you enjoy the Viper.
