    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    Updates: The attempt was scheduled for Oct 26th originally and after we got our badges to get on facility on the 25th we got a call cancelling the 26th and moving the date to Sunday the 27th which was better since it was suppose to rain Saturday anyway. That didn't last long as they called and...

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    We do some minor changes for better aero such as fog lamps are covered, all seams are taped off with helicopter tape, mirrors and wipers removed, we lower the car overall but the nose is lowered more than rear, that keeps a little more rake in the car as anything over 200 tends to push the rear...

    Here is the 232 MPH run https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w28...w?usp=drivesdk This is a video of a NA run that shows how long I'm at WOT. There were some crosswinds which pushed the car around a bit

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    Thanks but it is GTS Blue with silver stripes, it's probably the shop lights that make the color look so different.

    The Quest for 250 plus MPH

    So I have been working toward building a Viper capable of breaking 250 MPH for some time now. I've had success with my Gen 4 convertible topping 235 MPH in the past and felt like the aero etc on a coupe was capable of higher speeds so on October 26 I will make an attempt at what would be a new...

    Bucket List Item for a Friend

    You're welcome Jeff, he's a great kid and he's done a lot of wrenching on that Viper and others. I was glad to be a part of him making it happen along with many others that played a part in it also.

    Bucket List Item for a Friend

    I have a young friend Scott who found out late last year he has leukemia and has been going thru chemo, radiation etc for months with stays in the hospital several times of 2 to 4 week stretches. One of his bucket list items was to break 200 MPH in a mile and I'm happy to report that he took my...

    What a Perfect Day...........235+ MPH

    Here is the 235 MPH certificate from IMRA, doesn't look like there will be a 235 video as there wasn't a camera in the car for that. Doesn't hurt my feelings considering where the car stopped at the end of that run. I'm hoping I'm able to do a 250 MPH run at some point but that will require a...

    What a Perfect Day...........235+ MPH

    LOL, it was funny, Rusty doesn't talk a lot either and even when he does it's very low key. After I did the 235 MPH run and got back to start line a crowd of guys were around me as I pulled up, I hear one of them say " you just ran 235", one of the Lambo guys standing there then says " 235 point...

    What a Perfect Day...........235+ MPH

    Several of us were out at Johnny Bohmer Proving Grounds event on Feb 10th, up early and out at the runway with high expectations for the day. Tech inspections done, cars numbered, safety briefings done and we all roll out on the runway and line up for our 1/2 mile shakedown runs. All went well...

    215+ MPH GEN 4 on the Runway

    Make sure you don't seal the hood with helicopter tape until the tech inspection is done. They typically check under the hood during that. If you have any questions about anything just give me a call. We will be glad to help you with taping the seams also when you get done with tech. I am down...

    215+ MPH GEN 4 on the Runway

    Almost done with the prep work for the 225 MPH attempt, should have it on the dyno Monday tuning it to squeeze out that last little bit of HP. It's been such great trip from the first time I broke 200 in it to now, lots of support from everyone. After this I want to build a coupe that's capable...
