American Viper Racing and Lemans...
You guys, have had your hands full for sure. I guess it is disappointing to some, but they fail to realize the cost and hard work a privateer team faces versus having huge sponsorship of factory backing. Hope you guys have a banner year and it sure would be nice if even DC would back you just...- Mike H

VRL Wheel to Wheel Racers--Spread the Word
I look at it like this.....at 150 MPh plus a suspension part fails, a tire blow, that `" mildly" dangerous sport, just became EXTREMELY dangerous. A blown tire or broken suspension at high speed could cause a car to box cart, and guess what at that speed you need all the safety gear you cam...- Mike H

VRL Wheel to Wheel Racers--Spread the Word
Chuck, I am sure Dale Earnhardt might have had MAYBE a better chance of being alive today if all the safety gear in his car was up to snuff and Tony Stewart now uses the Hutchens device. Maybe its me, but if this sport had left safety up to individuals, there would be many more tragedies. I...- Mike H

VRL Wheel to Wheel Racers--Spread the Word
The Hans device is so way over priced. Many Winston Busch and Craftsmen Truck series drivers are using the Hutchens Device. It works almost the same as the Hans, and has a full thigh straps. It works much better. It is available thru a NASA member for $345.00. Frank Parise on this site had a...- Mike H

Fire Suppression Question
FORGET HALON! Halon is a gas that takes away oxygen, very dangerous to a driver. Most systems use a 3 point setup, one in engine, one in fuel cell area, one on steering wheel facing the driver. Their is a company here in NJ, call COLD FIRE. They have developed the best system in the business. It...- Mike H

I don't know, but the track looks real small, looks like we will be lucky to get out of 3rd gear? Guess it will be good for working on setups anyway.- Mike H

On Track Insurance
Bruce, Do we not take risk every time we are on the track? We have 100-125 K tied up in these cars. For many racers that is quite alot of money. Luckily their have been few incidents, most are from mistakes drivers make, and go off into tires, barriers, etc. I don't think their has ever been a...- Mike H

Why Vipers belong on a Road Course and Not the 1/4 Mile
Someone explain to me how a 400 HP turbo Miata is stock? I guess if you supercharge a car, bored 60 over, with its original paint is stock also? LOL...too funny. I agree you can make a go cart fast if you want...only need money. The Viper is definitely better suited for the road courses than a...- Mike H

On Track Insurance
Skip, I agree, if you multiply that at the full value of our race cars that is way too much. But think about it, even a 20K policy would cover most costs we have seen. Even 10K in coverage would cover most of the "rubbing" incidents that occur. I think if like Steve says a package deal could be...- Mike H

How safe is Viper Days?
There is very little incidents, but they can occur. You would need roll bars, fire system, and some other safety measures to race in the wheel to wheel race. In the regular Viper days event you race for time and is much less chance you will ever hit someone else. This is times and instances that...- Mike H
