Dont say it's so, Sal. This car is less then 60 miles from me and I never got to see it run. Best of luck with what is one of the baddest fucking machines on the planet today.
Good luck Sal, it is truly a freak. The attention to detail is simply amazing and the performance speaks for itself. I always liked seeing our cars in real events because they looke so out of place, until the green bulb lit.
Oh, and this is THE car that started the drag Viper madness as Heffner's first TT.
Sal, that's the car that got me to the "dark side" from my corvette days. I still remember in Bradenton how I paid no attention to it until I saw the Boards light up with the 9.7 at 147 mph. I almost kill myself running down the stands to find out what the hell it had. It sounded so damn quiet!.
I went home kind of depressed, and the Vette went up for sale.. the rest is history.
I hope it goes to a good home!
That is one sweet car! It was the first twin turbo Viper I ever rode in and is what convinced me to go from superchargers to turbos. Good luck Sal! Maybe we can make someone a package deal! j/k
