Default 01 Viper
ON ICE!

He got me by 3-3.5 with me N/A. I spun hard that run and pedaled like crazy out of the hole.

Decided to let it "cool down" as I had just driven a couple hours pulled up and raced. I meanwhile flashed my nitrous tune and turned on the bottle.

Got the tires good and warm and made sure it was gonna stick.

Tree'd him hard and sprayed about 10ft out. Not gonna say how many cars but it was a murder.

Beating a viper is pretty sweet, they usually don't expect it! Beat one acr on the street from a low roll and murdered a boot on base at the track.

Good death and kill.

Very nice kill on the spray!

Do you have a GoPro or something to bring along for races yet?

actually if you take the power to weight and fraction them based on 3.14 pie...then factor in areo and drad cd with a touch of brand loyalty then theirs no way the viper lost.

that better???

ps...I either raped or molested that pie when your wernt looking. Im unsure of its age but I started with the crust
