    Wing debate

    The basics of drag and lift occur all the way down at speeds of 20 MPh.On production based cars aero lift is what at higher speeds a wing is used to compensate for, however the use of a wing can and will not always increase drag. A great book to read on the subject is a book called Competition...

    Not impressed with welds

    Every one of our raqce Vipers has had the steering rack rewelded with gussets as this is a problem spot that brakes when road racing. I think DC even made a recall on that and have a gusset kit for it.

    PDA Events

    PDA events are great and usually lots of track times. Unfortunately my race Viper is still apart (blown engine) SO I will not make the VIR event with the rest of Snake Pit Racing, so looks like I have to jump into the ol reliable street Viper and count me in at pocono.

    what helmet for drag racing?

    Any helmet with a snell rating of 95 is good, but you should consider a helmet made of the newer lighter Kevlar materials.....It is your head you are trying to protect and I think it is always the best policy to have the very best in safety equipment! Accidents DO HAPPEN!
