I have noticed a lot of Vipers are like some Supra guys under 6 feet tall-they hate to lose and refuse to run from a dig

Wonder why a Viper owner would be afraid to run from a dig with all that torque It's a V10 for gosh sakes. From what i've seen they run HARD from a dig on a good tire.

Killemall has lost control of past vipers and crashed them because he said they are too hard to drive.

I figured that, but didn't want to say it. Did he ever use that term "Raw" though? That would be pretty damn epic.

Yes, I was one of the first (if not the first) to get him to actually say "RAW" on this board.

yes Im under 6 feet. But arent most of us???? Hate to lose. Id rather loose than just rape eveyone...My lil 500 rwhp 3300 pound car aint nonthing to bragg about on these boards but in real life encounters it rapes everything..So these pre arranged duels with BADA$$ cars are a welcome change...

Actually im pretty damn good from a dig. Weve all an at the same location useing the same testing gear...So far Im the fastest. Then again I have wayy more practice..

People laugh but bottom line is the viper is the most wrecked exotic in the world..Maybe only 450 rwhp. But 500 rwt at VERY low rpm's..The 505 ci V10 makes tourque so fast that I cant really explain it..RSKY's C6Z06 only now feels as tourquey as my viper did stock and he has 520 rwhp from cam and minor bolt ons...Actually the 490 rwt I had stock I think is still higher than what he has after the cam and minor mods..But it does feel close now..

Go drive one and then tell me. Everyone comments on the tourque. I dont care what kinda car/power your used too..

While the tourque is very fun. It is also very dangerous. For streetraceing puposes I prefer the C6Z06 or GTR...The power comes on gradulally and starts screaming as you get in higher rpm's. With vipers the power is immediate and then dies out as you past 5000 rpm's..Good for fun but bad for street raceing. Honestly it kinda sucks for street raceing...40 mph rolls should be started in first gear. But it is impossible to acellerate at 40 mph in first gear even with only 512 rwt...So second gear is used...It sucks....When I was younger I would be more ballsy and say screw it an start at 40-50 mph in first gear...Helped me win some races I thought I wouldnt but ultimately I wrecked two vipers doing that...

Yea I started the tem raw wheel HP...I get so sick and tired of typing rwhp or awhp or fwhp...How about just the raw power put to the wheels?????Laugh it up..But I think Im on to somthing here. Or maybe not


To the racial stuff....I am what i am. makes no differance what I look like...My moms black and indian and my dads white and indian. Everyone thinks im Puertirican???? Just dont want this board degenertaed to the level of honda boards were they use the "N" word to replace the word "friend/enemy ect" Stop it early..

As the great Carlos Spicy Weiner said....

Today's lesson from crashemall. Torque sucks for street racing even though torque is what gets a car moving and horsepower is a function of torque and RPM. WTF doesn't even begin to question that post. I am now completely convinced you don't know what the **** you are talking about. You crashed two Vipers because you can't drive not because of some magical and overwhelming torque. Damn. Get a damn grip and learn some **** before you attack another keyboard with your idiocy.

Id hate to see killemall drive a car with nitrous, all that instant raw wheel torque would surely push the car directly into a guard rail.
