OUCH!
darn..
Sorry to hear of your problems...
With my last car, if a part (filter nut, belt) went kaput, I would just wake up in the morning and check front door at ups via DLM. I would even get calls during the week asking of everything was ok...
3rd time at the track and ran a 10.7x at 144 mph!!! holy crap!!
Don't forget, it surely wouldn't have been possible without that DLM car mainly!
Also remember, the more $$ you sink into a car and the more HP you have (didn't you have over 1,000?) the more the car will have to be tweaked now and then. And parts DO go bad, spitting out that much nitrous and that much boost... One thing to consider....Didn't you win a 1st place at that Atlanta car show too? Sounded like an incredible car.
What's next? surely you'll try and top the power and reliability on your next viper! Keep us updated...!
Regards and good luck!
