Viper for breakfast!!!

[Neutrino]

Well i just finnished moding my car last week and since then I've been iching to race someone. Well today was the day. I sit at a red light and sudenly i hear this engine roar. I loo to my right and I see this Viper RT/10 puling beside me. So I look at him we make eye contact and i rev my engine. He is like what the heck thinking that I must be joking but I keep reving my engine so he is like ok lets do it. I dial up my turbo to 28 psi and air and fuel mixture controler so I meak sure i am not running lean.

And green. He has a very good launch chirping his tires very little and he jumps ahead of me by about a car lenght. but i get to about 4000rpm and my turbo kicks in and I start caching up in second I already am passing him by third he is gone. At the next stop light he puls beside me and the look on his face is priceless. he starts yeling lets do it again and i'll smoke you and I just smiled at him and made a left turn and left him in agony.


Mods: 4000$ worth of engine reinforcement, garret turbo, apex-i boost controller, apex-i fuel/air mixture controller,short headers, borla staight trough exaust. 17in Pirelli P0 tires american racing 6 spoke aloy wheels.

What kind of car do you have? what do you drive, a f-1 car? This story sounds highly unlikely, what are the chances you would end up next to a dodge viper, right next to each other at a stop light with an open road ahead? not to mention smoke him.

[PoisonFangs]

Its not that unlikely... I have pulled up to a few vipers with open road ahead of me, I just cant beat them

[jewbacca02]

i gotta wave the extra-large BS flag on this one, dude... i highly doubt this one. Hell, just compare the COST of the 2 cars....... (even afer mods). If it happened, he sucked as a driver.

why do people talk bull shit like this.........

I smoked a viper in my porsche also... but this guy didn't know how to drive , he were burning out at the light trying to launch while i already shifted to 2nd... If he knew how to drive i doubt if i could beat him...

vipers are 13 second cars so in all respect they're slow for what they are which is too heavy

lalalala

if you ran against a henessey the probablity you'll win is very high because the probability his car will detonate is almost certain

what?!
vipers are 13 second cars?
i hate to tell you this, but you are sadly misinformed. a stock viper with the stock street tires will run a low 12 at well over 110 mph...that's far from 13's.
i have seen some excellent driver's push a viper into the 11's on street tires, and a viper with slicks will run mid 11's all day.
i am pretty sure most of the other people on this forum would back those numbers up as well.

o er i got videos of them running 13's must be shit drivers then o wait i got support you're BSin http://www-atdp.berkeley.edu/9931/dfan/viperspecs.html

and all those qoutes about what they're supposed to do is when the driver is an amazing proffessional who does it all the time if you're a rich bastard who can buy a viper they don't have the skillz but if you allow for that everyone else is slower too

[chebbiesux]

well, the 11 second passes are with wicked driver's yes, but my dad drove HIS viper to a 12.20 @ 117 mph. that was a GTS coupe, and we ended up selling it to buy his hemi GTX back. but he isn't an amazing professional, and i am pretty sure i could have pulled a 12 second pass off in it too.
and i don't think you have to be that rich...vipers go for 60-70k canadian right now, that's actually pretty cheap in retrospect to some of the other cars you guys talk about (skyline, etc)

well, it's still not a 13 second pass...but that's really slow for a viper. 4.4 0-60 should show you it's a low 12 second car.

hahaha cheap my arse .......

a supra goes for 17k and so does an RX7
i'd rather buy those two and modify it than pay 70 grand (CHEAP >? ?? ? ) on a viper

and i'd like to see some pictures of your cars it sounds like you have an interesting collection

Erm... NSX i think his reffering to canadian dollars , and they are worth a bit less then american ( i mean one canadian dollar is less than one american , not any canada vs US war , because in this case i'd be representin' canada anyway)

[banchi105]

Car & Driver tested the Hennessy 800TT Venom and they got it into the High 9's in the 1/4 mile

o errr :apoke: it still would be expensive anyway

70,000.00 CAD
Canada Dollars = 43,950.57 USD
United States Dollars
1 CAD = 0.627865 USD 1 USD = 1.59270 CAD


BOLLOCKS

ok that still is about 20 grand more than a Supra and 10 grand more than a Camaro SS which is faster

and banchi the henessey was just a point we're arguing about the 1/4 for a normal Viper the henessey would blow up is my point

if the mods are real then i really dont doubt it. did u read the original post?!? 28 psi?!? the viper would still win on say a freeway simply due to higher top speed, but were talking a low-mid speed race of a viper vs. a much ligther car pushing 28psi im betting neutrinos car has a hell of a better power to weight ratio then a viper.

like i said, if the mods are real.
