I've got the H.P. and Torque to do "9's" (as several of us do), but don't have the hook-up. I'm working through Jerry Wolfe with Papalo Racing right now to redesign and replace the drivetrain. If possible (I stress "IF"), then this might do the trick. I'm not wasting any more time on getting more horsepower/torque. It's time to just put down what we've already got!

That's the spirit, go for it with your already proven HP and jump on in. Hook-up has always been one of the missing pieces to the 9 sec. puzzle and once you have that down I am sure others will follow.

my car ran 114.6 MPH in the 1/8 mile(Very similar to the Venom turbo cars trapping in the 150's for the 1/4 mile).

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Paolo - you are well on your way! That is an outstanding speed for 1/8 mile.... as you say - it is torque x gearing at the rpms used at WOT that provide the potential - followed by the car setup and driving to harness as much of that as possible. YOu are doing a fantastic job preparing for that shootout - a full factory team effort would be proud of what you've acheived to date as a privateer.

Sorry fellas--read 'em and weep! My car holds the title for quickest on blower only set by Jason Heffner about 6 months ago. 10.20 @ 140.58 MPH.

I wouldn't set on that BIG BIG .02 lead.....cause it won't last long :laugh:

Well, it HAS been 6 months. I haven't had my car to the track since that record setting day. Don't worry though, because it feels good to be on the top and nobody remembers the second guy to do it. Mine was the first (S/C Viper) in the 10's and naturally will be the first in the 9's.

OMG !! I don't see how you get in the car with a head that big. (oh,I forget...someone else drives it) First in the tens ? Really thats nothing to be proud of and I am sure people are digging for time slips now. As far as the nines....a lot of people say that but nobody has done it yet....so step on up (find you a driver) and run a nine. Anybody else want to brag about their car that somebody else built and somebody else drove :laugh: It's embarrasing that the n02 boys with just a small amount of $$$ can kick every s/c cars a$$....and remember, nobody will remember a car was only s/c'ed as it crosses the finish line second. Let me ask you this Gary....when I bust through your 10.20 with a 75 shot of nitrous, no intercooler and only 5-7 psi are you going to be crying foul ?

Sorry Gary but DLM was running in the 10's with superchargers YEARS AGO! He ran 10.60's at VOI 6 in St. Louis.....not that I'm bragging on the competition...PLEASE!!just setting the record straight! Your 10.20 does still stand as quickest s/c only pass, even if it is only by .02, hence back to the title of this thread..congrats.

BTW, the first Creampuff in the 10's PERIOD belongs to BTR Performance..a 2001 GTS BTR 650 that ran 10.58...I know, I was at the helm! It's on video and documented on my website with dated timeslip!

I agree with Tony1...and I may just have to drive Roofs car into the 9's next weekend in Columbus myself! LOL

With your above comment it makes me and many others wonder was your 10.20 pass made on all S/C or did you have another power adder ie. NITROUS etc. NOONE knows without a tech done at a National Event......


See it is SIMPLE all the big S/C boys drive their own cars ....Dr.Roof drove his 10.22 pass at National event....I ran my car for the 10.361 at a National event. Jack B and Paul S drove their own.... you understand the principal.

Tony, A 1000 and Hayabusa are pretty much equal, but the Busa will take it top speed. if a busa will pull you, a 1000 will also. I've raced 1000's and Busa's and pulled them both from a roll on 4 or 5 different occasions.. Now with Roofs car there, this is going to be embarrassing for the bikes..

Note: if the 'busa has a pipe and mapped I would wager a bowl of cereal they have the airbox mod, flapper valve mod (in airbox), Pair/sucker module removed, sealed the airbox, etc. All these mods including the header mods with a map can EASILY net a "stock" hayabusa another 20 or 30 RWHP!!! That's like adding 100HP on your car. Be careful. When you say stock , it has to be "stock"....

Barry, that is one of the best compliments I ever got! Thanks! I am doing my best and will continue to do so. Paolo

Wonder all you want, Cudaman. I couldn't care less if I drove or not--if that's what you want to hang your hat on, no problem. Facts are facts and 10.20 is faster than your car has EVER gone.

Making it personal now, huh? I don't think it's embarassing at all that the nitrous guys have outdone the S/C guys--different technology. The twin turbo guys have done it already too. The only frontier left is S/C-only. Hybrid S/C with nitrous is not going to impress anybody. I could have done that a long time ago and so could Dr. Roof and a bunch of others.

Also, let me know when you bust through that 10.20--oh, by the way, I've been waiting for 6 months already.

One thing I like about Gary A, he never backs down from a war! As for the SC car in the 10's at VOI 6, it was Doug in his own Viper. It was Red with White GTS Stripes..I think he still owns it.

I could be wrong about this but I thought that Jamie Furman had ran in the 10's a few years back with his Viper......Like I said I COULD BE WRONG ABOUT THAT.

I may, if time permits, attempt to "tweak" roofs shock settings and make a pass in his Viper next weekend. His car has 9 second potential. You two fellas would make for a great race!
