Obviously street racing in traffic is a bad deal. No doubt. Think about this, though. Maybe street racing will/will not increase because of the F&F movie but definately street racing will make a better news story because of the success of the F&F movie.
Just a thought.
All of the line lock installations that I have seen put the line lock before the proportioning valve. Will this work if the O-ring has been removed from the prop. valve? Any other road/drag racers out there who've done it?
Thanks,
Prashant, et.al., can you repeat the details about the 9 second club that Roy was sponsoring. I did hear that announced didn't I? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Ok 1sad gtass......I totally agree with you. If Albert had a car just like you it would be just like yours......SLOW! Anyone in Texas with a car slow enough to race this Joisey boy? I didn't think so. I understand if you can't read the board very well because of where your head is...
I just talked to John Purner this morning. He said that most of the weight savings comes from the tires. Stock radials have steel in them. His bias don't.
Also, Tom Welch told me in the past to dyno with stock radials for higher numbers. The soft sidewalls give a little more driveline loss...
Looks like fun. I'll be in the St. Joe/K.C. area after I kick a little Corvette a$$ in San Antonio on July first. E-mail me information on how to get in touch with you when I get there and figure out what I'm doing. I'd like to do some racing there if possible.
C-ya,
Re: Mark 9\'s? When to call out someone? (long)
What's up with classes anyway. I think the original posts were about how the fastest Vipers (v-10) were in Texas and if you think you're faster come prove it......and we'll pay for it. I don't think I want to pick up the tab for a guy who has a...

Prashant,
I'll help pick guys up at the airport.
1bad gts,
Street legal slicks roll out the door of Tire Rack, etc. everyday. I think your missing the point. Fastest(ET) quarter mile V-10 Viper. Thats it. No limitations. If you want to start...

I never thought I would be embarrassed to run a 10 sec. 1/4 mile but the guys from Houston (not all of Texas)put me in 7th place the last time in San Antonio. July 1 I'll have Purner wheels and Balanger headers. Now I can be the 6th fastest Viper if I get into the low 10's. Maybe my problem...

Try this site. http://www.1800hitchit.com/HitchOrderdrawtite.asp They have a pretty good description of a weight distributing hitch if you follow the links for towing products.
The dealer I bought my 1999 GTS from had someone back out on a GTS. I bet you can get a better deal than I did. Call Jennifer Baker @ ACS.

Re: I\'m a new viper owner-new member
Welcome aboard Armando. You will learn a lot hanging out here.
I work with several (6) guys from Harlingen who went to TSTC. Thing you might know any of them? Send me an E-mail.
You said it John. I hope the North Texas group (esp. King) found time to enjoy the weekend too. Good job guys!
Thanks to Dodge and the VCA for the two autocross Vipers. We took real good care of them.
Phil,
You know, I heard that Albert was going to run <u>liquid</u> propane but I never heard the outcome. I'll ask him this weekend. Also, I don't attribute the power gains to the propane. More so to the big shot of nitrous. I agree with propane not being as proven as gasoline and I'm...
Phil,
How many fewer mods and dollars do you have than me?
BTR nitrous/propane $1750
K&N's and smooth tubes $ 150
Heavy duty 1/2 shafts $ 700
Labor $ 0
Results - $2600 spent = 10.9 @ 132 mph
No doubt Sean has a faster car than mine but I think I have pretty good...
John,
I dynoed my 1999 with Tom's largest jets. Max horsepower was 590 and max torque was 740. Both numbers were at the wheels. The car has a Borla cat-back, K&N's and smooth tubes.
There are holes in the frame for special hooks. Call 1-800-TIE DOWN and they will fix you up. The holes are re-enforced, oval shaped, and on the outside of the frame.
