I feel a bench racing head ache coming on, but I'll take my chances.
How much are you calculating a 27.5 tall drag radial "grows" at 170 + mph?
It must grow ~1" or so, because I was seeing north of 180mph 200-300 ft. before the finish...in 4th...pulling to 6500. Then bouncing off the rev limiter and coasting to mid 170's.
Kelly, what rear gear ratio and trans gear ratio are you running? This isn't bench racing, the formulas don't lie on figuring out the speed, getting north of 180 out of 4th is impressive.
Good man.
All these studs with 1000+ hp.
The street poor mans TT puny 829rw keeps me entertained pretty well and almost in the ditches. 1200 would prob kill me.
Your car should handle like silk on Kardashian's shaved ass after that weekend at Dave's. I think you're ready for 1200
Good races.
Looking forward to 500 more rpms and a rematch.
Looking forward to 1500 more rpms and motech/tc! Hopefully we won't rematch in the dadgum 2nd round, no!!?? That sucked. I like the new qualifying rules although now I can't sandbag...

Your car is sick man. I hope it wins it all in April!!!

Gears are secret sauce.
4th is 4th....so 1:1
Pulling to at least 6500.

That should help you too. Yeah, pairing 2 cars like ours that early was...well...unfortunate is one word.

Math don't lie, this why you won't get an honest answer from the crying cowboy Kelly

Not a big secret if you "really" went over 180mph @6500 rpms with a 27.5" tire! Math says 2.92 gears

The only people crying are idiots like yourself that type and don't race.
Or idiots that race, but can't compete with these level of cars.
For yourself take your pick, but here's a nugget for you to ponder.
Is a 27.5" tire taller, mounted on a narrower wheel or a wider wheel?
And one more. Does a car slow down or speed up, when on the rev limiter for 200-300 ft at these speeds?
Tell me how that bench racing math works out for you.

Am I hearing things or was this car sold to him and had a variety of problems?
Seems a whole hell of a lot of Vipers are being sold lately with some real problems.
Don't ever question a car deal you weren't apart of. I've never fucked someone over on a car deal, ever. Give these guys shit all you want, but don't drag me into it. Especially when you weren't part of the transaction.

You're still a fucking retard that thinks everyone is stupid enough to believe your lies! Your car ran great and won some races, but that wasn't enough. You have to come on here and stroke your own balls and act like its the best thing in the world... Why would it matter about getting an extra inch of height by going to a 1" narrower wheel if you had secret sauce gears

No lying here. Only benchracing faggots like yourself think that actual tire diameter, in relation to wheel width and some growth on the big end doesn't matter.
Good job on avoiding the questions I dumbed down for you though.
If you look at my first post in this thread, you will find no stroking.
But since then, I have slapped a select few upside the head with my penis.

Why so pissy? I was just stating what I as well as what Everyone Else heard!
Don't question it?
I heard it here and I questioned it here. Don't like it, come clean if all was ok.
Fuck someone over?
Did I ever say that YOU did? Read it again, and get an English to Hillbilly translator if you need too.
Drag you into it?
Once again, did I question you directly? I was asking about whomever sold it, to whomever could answer it.. If it was you, sounds like it did have problems. Sounds like those problems were ironed out, so that is a plus. It's just too bad that sellers do not disclose these BEFORE the sale. Can't claim you did not know as you claim to know everything else.
All your quote of my post did is bring more attention to this. Just glad oufan has things corrected.

I used to own the car, I sold it to andy. Andy and i have never had a crossed word or issue that I'm aware of. When you say there was a problem with the car, that calls me into question. Andy got the car sorted out to his liking and was given a great deal on that car. I do get defensive when someone who has no idea wtf they are talking about calls my integrity into question

Defensive again, over one little question.
Lets try this again, headaches when purchased, or after the fact?
