Default killed 04 Dodge Viper

driving through Winston Salem Saturday night a viper tail gated me then pulled up next to me. He was older slipped a rev and hit it. He imediatly pulled a car and a half before i hit it. I slowly reeled him back in and then next to him around 80. We slowed to 50 I pulled mine to second armed the Juice. the guy counted 3 and we went i pulled ahead by 2 cars then moved on to 5 before he flashed his lights to stop at abot 100. Don't know what the new ones are capable of, but dam they are quick for a stock car.

Nice! I am looking to get my mod my car up to blow away an 03 Cobra! Only one I know here in WV is my old hometown! A guy on here told me I needed quite a bit more mods, but then again, he is a Cobra guy, lol. Way to go, man...Vipers ain't no grocery getters!

I think the 2nd gear 50mph start gives about the strongest pull that a 3.07 geared Viper SRT-10 has. And five car lengths by 100mph is insane! Your car must be making close to or over 500rwhp on motor? Sounds like one fast T/A, good kill!

Damn, nice runs! What color was the Viper? I saw a sweet silver Viper this weekend. I wonder if it was the same one?

Actually, with the mods in his sig, there is no way he is close to 500rwhp on motor, I'm guessing about 410-430rwhp possibly less since he has an auto with a 4000 stall. With the spray he'll be way over 500 to the wheels, but not on just the motor.
-------------------------------------------------
Burnem, I find it hard to believe you pulled even with him if he took the hit first by the time you hit 80mph on just motor alone. But then again, maybe he wasn't as good a driver as you (all you have to do is stomp and steer)..... . But you'd a killed him on the spray for sure, that is practically a given.

Where are all these guys when I'm driving around NC...? not that I could take a viper or anything, but it'd be nice to find a street race once in a while.

Nice Kill!

Vipers ain't no grocery getters!
I beg to differ, I saw a guy at Target the other day come out from shopping and get in a red 04 Ciper. Then I saw his TWO teenage kids get into the car with him. It pissed me off, if you buy that car then you should put up with the impracticalities, not try and get around them.
