**"Mopar Jim's" Underground Racing Twin Turbo track video!!**
Congrats and great driving to Jim in only his second outing in his Viper.. First time he came to check out his Viper when we completed it. We got him some track time so he could get the hang of his Twin Turbo.
His first few passes were on BFG drag radials. His second pass he made it into the 9's!! He came back out a bit later to try again with some street/slicks and after heating up the tires, he was able to pull of a 9.0 with a very soft launch and on low boost. Below is the video, enjoy.

Great run Jim. 164 mph at the end of that run is very impressive. Awesome car that UGR has built for you. Enjoy it.

Hey, isn't that or wasn't that a Venom 1000 previously? The one that guy used to road race I cant remember his name on here but he had some sweet video's of him at the tract with it.
Anyways nice vid and good run, car seems very strong, 76mm build?

Would be curious how it launches with a smaller burnout. Radials typically don't need nearly as much heat as a slick. Good job

Congrats to Jim for a great time with such a soft launch and low boost.
I would like to see this car at full boost with you behind the wheel Kevin. I think you would give Garths title a run for its money.
