Well, it has the 6-speed Viper record I believe, but not the 6-speed record.

With that trap speed, he should be able to get it to a flat 8 with a perfect launch.

Last I checked, the 6-speed supra record was the BoostLogic Supra with a lower 8 second run.

The boost logic supra and Darin's Supra both trap about the same as this Viper though.

SW's cars are sick. Question, does he pilot them down the 1/4? I know he did in the mile, just curious.

Just goes to show what time and $$$ does, it does not matter if you are a 3.4l or a 8.4l

It looks like that supra leaves harder then the viper for sure.

Not to defend the Viper, it is the slower of the 2. However, it is all in how the suspension is setup and the chassis engineer's understanding of the suspension geometry. My T/A went from consistent 1.5's to a 1.34 and consistent 1.3's off the footbrake with just chassis scaling.

Very true. Judging from each of the car's trap speeds, the Viper could dip into the 7's if it really hooked up. The supra guys have just spent so much time and perfected dialing their cars in to run on the stock IRS and 6-speed.

A Viper did dip into the sevens a while back, but clearly has been bested by the Supra's 7.91

NSFW cuz of a stoopid song, but here it is anyway.

lol, some guy at the end of the actual vid actually says "Oh, ****!"

I guess they thought it might be cool, then, to play the first song that popped up from google with that phrase in the lyrics...

lol, ******* garbage, but it was the only one I could find with that run, sorry.
