Not without some more help. A 125 shot would probaly do the trick though.

Nope big loss. The only power mods you have are the headers and intake.

If you run low 12's that is waaaaayyy better than most C5 auto's with your mods. from a roll you will get killed by a new viper, and beat by an older one...if you find a 90-94 or so VIper you could hang. What year is the Viper your going to race??? Auto's from a roll aren't that great.

From a roll..you have no chance the Viper will own you.

Race him from a dig, you have a better shot.

Also are sure the Viper is stock?

I've raced bone stock Viper's at the track & the one's I've seen run have ran anywhere from 11.99@117 (Against me) in my 94 Z28, to 12.3. Most of the time the stock ones I've raced at the track trap 117-118.

I'm guessing you trap 112-113 with your setup now. At the track it would be close due to the advantage you'd have in the 60'. On the open road he would walk away from you IMO.

Get the cam in there & then try it again,
Fred

Yes and you might want to loose a little weight as well, the viper is going to be a bit lighter.

Those arent really power mod's and they wont help much from a roll.

Good luck

I have a 2000 (mostly stock) Viper GTS. It cracked off an 11.7 @121 when it was BONE STOCK. Obviously the conditions were next to perfect and its a strong car, but you will still die a HORRIBLE death if you race him.

Also...in your first post you said you were racing a GTS. In a later post, you said you were racing an RT/10....which one is it? Not that it matters much at all, you'll still get your *** handed to you...but this sounds a little off to me. You sure this race is for real? Or is this in your daydreams of racing?
