hahah i was about to post that vid on the forum this morning!!! but you guys beat me to it!!!
I made this video yes, im trying to get better with video editing. The T&Ds and other valvetrain parts made a HUGE difference. The car itself just runs smoother especially top end.. i gained about 40 whp. the extra lift lowered boost levels because of the lift up top, so all that had to be reconfiged... but.. the viper is well over 1100 whp on the stock ticking time bomb block and Tranny!!! woot woot.
i will be creating more videos of the viper (as long as it doesnt blow up!!)... my buddies supra is getting an overhall and will be hitting around 1200whp here soon... so im really excited to see how the little old viper does against an even more monsterous supra!
paolo.. sorry i do not.. but i got another go pro for this year just for that reason!!!
i know when i raced the bike i went over 190 mph... i maxed 5th gear out.. thats the only time i have ever done that!!
it would make sense.. cause i have 3.55 rear gear.. and 19 wheels would take it down to about 3.33 ratio... 5th on 3.33 maxes out around 190 mph... i know i looked down and it said 200 mph... but i dont have the mph calibration fix on the car yet.. so i know it is somewhere between 189-195 mph
it takes a few heat cycles to warm them up.. but they do have traction issues even when warm.
to be honest.. the big hotsides i have probably help alot too.. as far as traction control goes lol... and honestly.. my clutch is probably slipping tonsssss !!
im only using a single disc centerforce HD... lets just say they are only rated for 800 fptq ...
Like I said, it just looks like you pull him on the hit and that's all anybody can see. Maybe race during the day and have in car camera from both cars.....
If you put a camera on the speedo, people can get an idea of just how fast your car really is.
It should not be that hard to put a camera over your right shoulder looking down on the speedo/tach.
I forgot you still have 3.55 gears........ Get 3.07's!
Well none the less, at least im providing fun videos of a TT viper doing work... as paolo said... with my gearing i should reach 185-191 in 5th... i let out at the very end of the gear... sooo.. i was going very very fast... sorry i dont have 15g to spend on a motor.. lol..
I thought past 165 the Vipers Speedos weren't accurate anyhow? I swear I heard or read that from one of the main Viper folks like Tator or Roe.
