    Darn! Another 10.80@133mph

    I wish I could be there for the event at Englishtown. That is one of the best dragstrips I've been at, not with the Viper though. Unfortunately I can not get out of work that weekend(it always interferes with my personal life!)I did get an 11.9 at 121 mph on street tires but didn't try the M/T's...

    Darn! Another 10.80@133mph

    First run at MasonDixonDragway, MD I got a 10.80 @133mph. Tech gave me a warning about running under 12.0 without a rollbar,etc. After running the second 10.82 @ 132 mph they booted me off the track. I couldn't resist. What a great feeling to get thrown off because you're too fast! Well there...

    10.80 @ 133.86mph

    I was at the track yesterday & it was a bittersweet victory. Yes I got 2 runs at 10.8 @ 133mph, however my 3rd run I got a 11.1 at 130 mph by coasting over the finish line. The temp was 68 degrees, humdity was 80%, altitude was close to 2000'. That was the sweet part!! The bitter part was a...

    Car lift

    A friend of mine is selling his Perfect Park 7000 car lift. You can see it at liftsunlimited.com. He is moving. He paid $3700 and is selling for $2900. I bought the same one he has and it's the best one I've seen so far. I use it for my Viper, no problems. Email me if interested or any questions.

    line lock

    I have a 1996 GTS coupe. Does anyone make a line lock for the car? I don't see why one would not work since there is no ABS. It would be great to have for the drag strip.

    Chambered Exhaust for a Viper?

    I wouldn't even think of chambered. I put it on my 1996 LT4 Corvette and lost 4/10's of a second in the quarter mile. I tried to get my money back but they said it was sold for sound & not performance. Just by looking at it you can see how it chokes the exhaust and the bends are not mandrel. It...

    Any advice on installing an Auto Meter Shift Light?

    17" to 18" wheels

    Re: 17\" to 18\" wheels Thanks all for the response. I just think the 18" look more aggressive opposed to the 17".

    17" to 18" wheels

    17\" to 18\" wheels I have a 1996 GTS coupe and would like to get Forgeline 18" wheels all around. Will going to a bigger size wheel affect my speedometer, etc. accuracy? Do I have to reprogram the computer? Also, besides looks, any advantages going to 18" wheels? Thanks!

    Rank Your Modifications

    Here's a thought and maybe I'm missing something. Try taking off the front part of your air box. I then plastic tied the K&N filters on to the rear part of the stock air box. I'm telling you, my ET's at that time dropped from a 12.4 to a 12.2. Since then I've been running with it off and my best...
