This was the first race I have gotten into since I put a built shortblock in my car and I also put a completely different Nitrous set up on it too, but I still have the stock heads and cams that are came in the car.. I was spraying a 250 shot and the Viper has a 522CI Stroker motor, Heads, Cams, ETC. Owner said it put down around 720rwhp on motor.. He also has a 250 shot but didn't use it. Here is the vid. We started at around a 55 roll till about 130 mph where I let out due to running out of gears.. I have 4.10's.. I pulled a little bit untill I ran out of gear and let off then he flys past me.. Damn I wish I had my 3.73's back in...

Wow...pretty strong set of cars in that video...thanks for sharing!

 

wow both nice cars. I know one of you all ran one of the bikes didn't ya?

 

wow. i remember reading about your car. i dont really like mustangs but damn your is fast as ****, so i got to give props where its due
+1

 

nice kill, that guy needs to improve his driver mod though he drops every time he tries to shift and looks like hes about to bottom out

 

Nice run Dan!

 

Good Race. Great Video. I'd be happy if i was you. Try him again with heads,cam and 3.73 or taller gears................all it takes is money right??

 

Yeah, untill he sprays me with that 250 shot of his.. LOL

 

man both of those cars move out fast !! Looks like your mach is really quick

 

was that brian's (bdj's) old viper?

nice pull bro.

 

yep..

 

Nice run! What kind of numbers do you put down? I can't imagine too much N/A, if you are on the stock heads/cams. Any ideas what you put down with the nitrous as well?

 

On the 200 shot it put down 530rwhp & 565rwtq.. We ran out of N20 on the 250 shot so I really don't know for sure.. I would figure around 570 or so and over 600rwtq..

 

So why was the race so close if he has 150whp more than you? Nice run anyway.

 

Because this Mach1 hauls major azz..

 

Thats what I was thinking. However, the viper owner could have been BS'ing. It was from a roll, so his suspension/launch advantage isn't going to be an issue, so who knows what the deal is. Regardless it was a damn good race, though I doubt the viper had as much power as advertised.

 

Nice run Dan & you're damn lucky to ran him buddy & got it on vid

peace

 

I know the old owner of the viper and it put down 650rwhp when he had it. There is no telling what the new owner have done to it.. But I do no it was making at least 650rwhp but the new ower said he put down over 700 so I'm just going by what he said..

 

Nice vid and badass mach! Is your car full weight? Not doubting the kill, but a viper with 650whp and weighing less should of really walked away . Also the viper could have been missing the driver mod? Either way, good kill and nice mach .

 

Yes my Mach is alot lighter then a normal Mach1.. My race weight is around 3100lbs but I wasn't at race weight. I still had all my seats in and heavy rims.. on..both cars had a passenger too..
