Reo vs. 1 hot v10.
Okay, 1 hot v10 was the viper's plates, and well, my little red camaro's pretty hott too sometimes. Anyway, enough w/ the pleasantries. Leaving class today I was driving and in my rearview I catch a yellow dodge viper w/ orange flames painted where the normal stripes are. My car has one foot in the grave right now, but I figured if I was going to break it, it was going to be against something worthwhile, not a POS civic. It was a pretty weak roll about 60-70 and we let off close to 130ish, I was ahead by half a car. Being that I was on my low boost setting (5#'s) w/ a half-***, half-done tune and what I think is a broken ringland, my car did pretty well. Reo, out.

Haha, it's seen better days, the doctor said she'll be all right Viper's are awesome. I can get rid of my car now, I only bought it to beat my dad's viper and now that I've beat an equivalent, I'm good.
Nah, I'll keep it. There's always a badder snake out there.

I'm not very surprised at all. I'm not seeing too many setups (well, I stopped looking a while ago) that are into the 500's w/ only the sts kit alone. Now that I have my cam in I'm hoping that I'm putting deep into the 500's rwhp. Either way, the car seems to respond a helluva lot better w/ the cam so number's don't bother me too bad as long as it shows on the street or the strip.

Everyone is telling me it's just waiting to blow and I believe them, however, she's holding up pretty well right now. If I wasn't losing oil I would have left the Viper far behind. (That's crazy!) On high boost (8.5#) I really would have something to brag about, but 5# I just edged him out. I don't think I'm going to get a stall, I just like to take the car out and get on it a little.

I expect you guys to be putting down over 500 on 7-8psi. Even STS advertises 508 at 8psi at an elevation of over 4200 feet. We should be seeing near 550whp in good weather and low altitude. If I don't get over 500, I'm going to be pissed.
Nice kill on that viper.
