Hey whats up Eric…thanks for the replys…the viper forums i hang out on everyone is mainly from Florida or Califonia…a few nice ones here and there but locally it is completely dead…there are supposedly a few badass ones in the canonsburg area…but haven’t met them yet.
My full exhaust and clutch will be done by spring and with the gains i have already seen i will have no problem running mid 11’s all day next year…i just hate going through rear tires with this car…1 grand a set!
There’s three or four Vipers in Johnstown. One of which is a waste and has been filled with stereo equipment and a stupid paint job. the others are rarely seen out.
true street tire record(michilin PS2’s) for Vipers now is 161mph trap and it was done without NOS…hes makeing 1,400 whp w/twin turbos on pump gas w/meth injection built by UnderGroundracing.com…pretty sick setup considering he drives it like that on the street…with VP116 they have seen upward of 1,800whp now for the stock frame record in the high 7’s…i have no plans on going forced induction but i would like about 600whp all motor before i buy an '08
i really think the most amazing aspect of the Viper is actually the Brakes and handling…the Gen 3 Vipers have Brembos on all 4 corners and with the upgraded pads and lines its amazing the pull down from 150+…the seatbelt will leave a redmark on my neck when i show someone…it steers amazing fast for a big car and reminds me of my S2000 only wider w/more grip…the car just doesn’t feel as heavy as it really is.
Kurts Evo that he sold…is probably the baddest ture steet car i have ever seen built on a buget under say 100k total investment…he really helped me with my DSM and it turned out nice
