I used to think it was hard to get attention from the girls at Hooters when Trojan had purple flames on a camaro. But now that he has a f*ckin Viper... It's game over for us f-body owners...

I didnt know that was you with the silver camaro with purple flames. I use to see your car at RPM and saw you run it at Sanger.

My car hasn't been to RPM since I have owned it. I think Chris(previous owner) used to take it there. I have taken it to HPP and done some tuning on it with james. I do take it to Denton on occasion just to play around and Kennadale a few times. Have never really turned up the boost at the track just ran it on about 10# and it ran in the low 6 range

UPDATE Well I made the trip to inspect the Viper and it has a few issues with it so I busted out a offer and NO deal for me. I'll just keep looking but I can say it is a sick sounding machine but a little pricey for my taste with the problems that I noticed. But I can say we we're about 7000 off from making a deal. Better luck to myself next time..

Default Viper Owner

Just an update on the viper I made the deal with them today ,they finally came around. (CASH IS KING) Called me about 5:30 to accept my offer And for the record tha supercharger was only installed around 5000miles ago along with most all the other upgrades. Keep your eyes open I might put the turbo camaro up for sell. Got ot let my friends have first chance at the camaro. Later gotta go have a cold one.

I guess my little ole 1000 hp ls1 might have to go. Iv'e got so many dang vehicles now and I just can't drive them all.

Actuall the camaro is great driver now since I put the Neal Chance convertor in it not near as high a stall as the n20 convertor. But it is a custom convertor built for the car. And it was at the low low price of only 1650
