The rear window on the convertable sucks..Already tried..If he's on my left side it will be a very good vid..right side hits into the mount..

as far as him pulling away past 140 mph we will never know. on our next encounter I will have a air inatke and very mild OEM viper competition coupe camshaft...Both together are only worth 15-20 rwhp..

This was really just to see were my car was against him before my new mods..

Cant wait to see if things get evened up..Still amazes me that it will take a 500 rwhp viper with 100 pounds weight reduction to run with a stock 570 superleggera..

Gallarado has really upped its game with this monster. A 2004 Gallardo will get pulled by a stock 2003 viper by 1-1.5 cars

Once he's running his car in "kill" mode with a bit more practice, I'm sure it will still be no problem. And he'll still walk you 150+ I'd bet .

So a stock viper at 450whp + 15-20whp is now 500whp?

1. You should have gotten a larger cam
2. 15-20rwhp more will beat his Lambo?

Killemall has more excuses than a fifty cent hooker at the police station.

Thanks for spelling that out. I would have mistaken that for a 'mild cam' otherwise

New rule of the Internet car forums. If your hp performance mod has more letters than the horsepower gained, then it doesn't count nor is worth mentioning. I'm looking at you smooth belows.

Theirs no kill mode..His car will just shift a lil faster..he's running max power the way it is..

stock viper?...kn filters...light weight fly wheel...light weight hood...light weight crank pulley...titanium exhaust...no cats...roller rockers...sct tune all for the current 480-490 rwhp isnt stock.. stock is actually more like 445 rwhp...The KN air intake and mild cam will put me in the 500-510 rwhp range.

I chose this cam because since it is a OEM viper cam from Mopar I can still be covered under warranty..Also it sounds stock...For resale you dont want to be trying to sell a heavily cammed viper...But a viper with a competition coupe camshaft is desirable

honestly with just a better 2-3 shift it could have been closer than the 1-1.5 car length advantage he had. So yes with an extra 15-20 rwhp and a lil practice on the 2-3 shift..Hard to say wich way it will go..Fun times reguardless..Should be door to door till 160 mph..At this point my cars gearing completely falls on its face and his comes to life...And yes at 160 mph even if I had 550 rwhp I think he would walk away...Vipers suck after 160 mph...In the 2010's they fixed this with revised gearing..But the 92-09 all suck pretty bad past 160 mph.

Corsa mode changes gears faster, and also enables launch control... if ya'll do a dig run, it's gonna be a slaughter

I'm honestly not trying to be a dick, but if your having problems with making a shift or racing your car from a dig why not get a bunch of practice so you can make a good dig race. I figure you actually run that car from a dig with no excuses and these guys will let up some.

Killemall, why get a mild cam? Why not put some serious stuff in your car and live up to your name. Hell, even some nitrous would make that car a serious threat to anything on that island. Adding a mild cam to that car just seems like putting a little present under a big *** Christmas tree.

(Killemall, you got beat by a 127-129 car, not a 129-134 mph car like you stated)

(Once Rsky learns how to drive the car and takes out a passenger and re runs you, then you will soon lose by 2-3 cars by a 127-129 car.)

Agreed. I want to see some big *** turbo SRT10 dominating everything instead of making excuses.

He wants a mild cam so he gets extra power, but then if he loses he can say, "well, it's only a mild cam." Sooo basically it's a built in excuse.

He'd probably crash it. That would be too much raw wheel horsepower for him to handle.
