What really happened at the Florida De Soto race park

Like when Pearl Harbor was attacked we got real violent in a short time.

Knowing David for the last couple of years he went directly into his war room with the underground crew.
I predict that David within the next 4 months will have the record. He might not of been the first 7 sec run but he will defiantly be the second to run a 7.

All that happened is that a line was drawn in the sand and David has already started his plans to cross that line in a big way.

WWF David vs Chad, smack down coming to Texas
Is this the David VS Goliath the bible talks about?

Rohn

well said my friend :thumb:

It is Chad and Heffner's time to enjoy the sunshine and we give credit to them for a great accomplishment!

as for us. Our game plan has not changed as we will join them in the ranks of the 7's very soon. no excuses just a new converter for the 5th time and another sticky track like Bradenton and we will be very close.

I regret the fact we had the troubles we had this past weekend as both of these cars are second to none in quality, performance and looks.

the 6-speed was the biggest disappointment as I really wanted everyone to see this car go down the track in real person. However we broke a part that to my knowledge has never been broken. we repaired it and broke it even worste the second time and we never got past the tree on the track.

but we will be in Texas with all systems on KILL and we will help team Heffner put the Smack down on the supra's!

after the Texas race the Yellow 6-speed will be retired and sold and we will move on to a coupe Twin Turbo program!


BTW
I think it would be a fair statement to say the World record of 7.99 will not stand by Chad/Heffner nor by Myself and Underground :thumb: I would not be surprised to be fighting this battle for a while back and forth :thumb:

That's great news for the viper community. It will be interesting to see where these cars end up.

For a drive shaft to have failed twice - I would be thinking maybe too much
motor flex - or motor angle out of norm. Or just bad luck I suppose.
I bet a lot of cars add drive shaft loops now.

Perhaps Just too much power and a Very sticky Track

We will order a custom shaft that will not break and It won't happen again. the only weak point in the car was exposed and I am very sorry for that. It just wasn't expected to happen as the car has ran numerous 8 second passes with no issues.

Every race is a great learning experience that makes you faster for the next event :thumb:
