Thanks David, I have to give the crew the credit for getting it to that number, I think I had the easy job...………... shift, push noisy pedal and steer straight...…..
Thought I would take some time to explain the day and how we managed to get Blucifer over the 250 number. We had spent the day before unloading the car and going thru tech inspection, they spent time reviewing everything from the open long studs, cage, fire suppression etc and even watched as we...
It took a lot of support from a lot of people and I definately give them all the credit. I feel like I had the easy job, push the pedal down and steer straight. I appreciate all the support from you guys also and looking forward to seeing what comes next. David
Thanks Viper Jeff and Janey, it was a big goal of mine and I am still on a high days later. I will take some time soon and write up how the day went and post it.
I don't know what 08 Z06s are bringing but I'm guessing 06 Viper coupe would bring a little more. Maybe you would be better off selling the Vette and that would open up a lot more opportunity to buy the Viper you want as many wouldn't be interested in trades. Good luck with it and hope to see...
I know this feeling well considering I'm on the third engine in my Gen 4. It always started for me with deciding to do some minor bolt on and before it's over I've got 1000 + HP and trying to figure out how I can get more. Glad to hear you got yours back together and getting some use out of it...
I'm sorry to report that Dec 7th just wasn't our day to do 250+. A few seconds into the half mile shakedown I knew something was going wrong as the car wasn't making the power it should have. I'm not the most knowledgeable on tuning or those magic voodoo boxes that make all the decisions for the...
Well we are down to 4 days before we have to load up trailer sometime Thursday so on Friday we can get our badges, get the car thru tech inspection and do our prep work at the runway. We have multiple tunes in the car, each a little more aggressive than the previous one. We set up the boost by...
It definitely has a lot of cracks/spiderweb cracks going on, between that and the fit if it was mine I would buy a used OEM hood. I think that hood will continue to give you grief even after it's repaired.
Had the car on Larry Macedo's dyno on Saturday and he has started making tuning adjustments. At 15 lbs of boost it made 1027 HP, at 16 lbs of boost it was 1097 HP, we need to work it thru the 5 positions eventually have the top position at approx. 22 lbs of boost. We still need to fine tune the...
Here is a video from Wanna Go Fast in Ocala of my first run ( 177 MPH I think ), I definitely didn't know what to expect and I'm sure my lack of finesse shows. The clutch is a quad carbon and very much like a light switch, either on or off and no in-between, then add the boost on top of that...
