I'm almost in posession of my first 96 gts. I'll have it in about a week or 2 and after putting some miles on it I'm going to take it to the local track. It was totally stock with 19000 miles on it, but before I even picked it up I got belanger header, high flow cats, corsa catback, b&m shifter, kw coilovers, 20" rear with 345 nitto invo's 19" front with the invo's as well, 3.55 rear, smooth tubes and filters. That's it as far as performance parts go but I think its a good base for future mods. My questions are
1. With the kw's would it benifit me to make the rear as soft as I could to get the car to sqaut or would it not make that much difference?
2. What rpm would work best for the launch?
3. Is there any special tricks to racing the viper or any need to do's before tracking it.
Thanks and I'm sure ill have more questions but these were the ones stuck in my head. The vca is great and I apreciate all your help. By the way I live in the northern va location and my the closest track( 20 minute drive compared to almost 2 hour) is summerduck dragway wich is an 1/8 mile. Thanks again.
