SRT 1/4 mile MPH results to date are ....

[Tom and Vipers]

I was wondering if any car magazine or owner has obtained some MPH's that exceed the big ones that the GTS has had published in the past?

One would hope with the extra HP, that there would be a corresponding MPH increase.

Unfortunately, I have seen way too many discussions of lower MPH instead.

Speaking for many of the owners here, I don't borrow Liz's SRT for dragstrip passes because it's a convertible and I'd be kicked off after the first run. I suspect that's also why you don't see as many SRTs hitting the 'strip.

Didnt Myrick run an 11.7 @ 124[rounded off]???The ET ties the best recorded time for a Gen II Viper and the 123-124mph is deffinately faster then any published numbers I've seen for the GTS/RT10. The fastest claim I've seen for a stock GTS is 121mph ..I believe Myrick's SRT was stock when he ran that time as well....Do a search for that thread.......

My first run after break-in was definitely faster that the GTS. Same weather, same track. The time was slower but the MPH was up. No burnout, 100% stock, gentle launch and shifts. GTS best was 8.1sec @ 84mph. SRT's 1st run was 8.8 @ 86mph (LOTS of wheelspin in 2nd). Unfortunately this was only on an 1/8 mile track, so I can't say I would have gone 120+. BUT my G-tech pro said 11.6 @ 125 the other day for the 1/4! So far it's been extremely accurate.

1/8 mile track is great to run on. I feel a little safer by keeping the top speed down. I think you can tell all you need to know about the car's performance on such a track. I will run mine to see what it's doing after I do a few mods to it. I'm not to thrilled about running 120 for several runs in a convertable car. Acceleration is what it's all about anyway.
