Nice! You need some daylight video to really show the speed/acceleration.

Nice vid. The rims look really good while walking around the car.

Looks like it's still pulling really hard and wants to keep reving. How long until you find a way around that limiter?

LOL I know. Hell if you shifted that car much harder it would get into some terrible wheel hop. Anyways, the car looks great.

I rode in my buddies older year Viper and going down the road sideways was fun, but I cant imagine having that much power in that car. Very nice car, when does the 1/4 mile slips come or the Texas mile?

Probably TX mile first. I might try HRP, but drag racing a Viper on non-drag tires simply sucks ***. Spin/Hop city. Drag tires make things go crunch on them, just like Corvettes.

You have/had a video with you in the vette where you could clearly hear the charger while getting up there that I liked better. But this was a nice video as well.

Thank god there's someone else still out there that still knows how to use turn signals.

Is the motor that thin sounding or is it the mic on the video cam? It doesn't sound as "bad" as I thought it would being a V10 and all.

Vipers have a higher pitched exhaust note than most V8s. Somewhere in between LS1 and Ferrari. If you have a subwoofer on your PC, turn it up though, this one as a very deep (almost like a subwoofer) growl to it.

Looks good Tony! I want to see this car in person at some point. It looks/sounds SICK.
