    The Quest for 275 MPH

    Hey everyone, been a while since I've discussed the plans for the next attempt at a big speed. We are back on the car making changes and prepping it for the effort to break 275+ but honestly any speed faster than the 252 MPH run gives us more data to work with. We have the tires/wheel...

    Bonneville Salt Flats 200mph 2003 viper questions

    Tony where are u located? I don't think a stock Gen 3 is capable of 200 MPH. You will need a few bolt on components but I'm glad to discuss any of it with you. David

    The Quest for 275 MPH

    Thank you, I want the 275 but I'm also not afraid to lift if that's what the situation requires. Besides the little bit of tail wagging it's a very stable car, but of course every mph gets it closer to the edge of that. I will take great care to make sure it's a safe run.

    The Quest for 275 MPH

    Excellent thought, could take the tail wagging out of the car at higher speeds. I will look into that. I am looking into possible time in a wind tunnel and adding vertical fins will be on the list of options to run. I will let u know how it turns out. Thanks

    My 05 need a tranny...Help

    I have a 6060 from a Gen 4 I would sell. The T56s tended to be really notchy to me vs 6060s which are very smooth. I'm not sure what all would need to be done if anything to put a 6060 in a Gen 3 but I know lots of people have done it. Let me know if you are interested. I would send it to a...

    The Quest for 275 MPH

    Thanks for the input, I do rake the car prior to any runs. The front is lowered as much as possible and the rear is typically a few inches higher. I have some data from past runs that we use to make these adjustments. The tires obviously grow in height with the centrifugal forces acting on them...

    The Quest for 275 MPH

    Well the high from 252 MPH is starting to wear off and we all know what the next number should be. I'm looking into what it will take to reach the next logical goal of 275+. Some of the concerns are the tires and which ones should I be using considering the speeds I want to attempt. I have been...

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    Yea Steve I grew up in that timeframe too, cars still had carburetors, points and condensers, now I watch tuner plug in and make a few keystrokes, unplugs and tells me he added 200 more WHP. It's definitely a new world. Back in the day we bolted on HP. I had a bunch of those cars you mentioned...

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    He did 199.648 in the 2.3 mile run and I think he broke 200 in the 2.7 mile. We were having issues by then so I didn't get to follow the other cars. The GT was stock so should have done low 200s I'm thinking.

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    This is my favorite picture, this was last run of the day, and it was either go big or go home, we had to be off the runway by 5 pm and I think this was somewhere between 4:30 and 4:50 pm. 43 seconds after this picture was taken I crossed the 250 MPH mark, and 13 seconds after that I crossed the...

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    This is view of Blucifer running down the runway, I think this may have been the 248 MPH run.

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    The GT returns and I'm about to launch Blucifer for 2.3 mile run I think, this was earlier in the day.

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    Thought I would share a few more pictures from Jan 18th. This is me lined up behind a Ford GT that drove from Titusville FL to West Palm Beach and back the day before to put enough miles on it to break in the engine, it barely had 500 miles on it when he got back I think.
