The two vipers I had, one went 8.50's at 155 (the convertible) and the blue one went 7.80's at over 180. The blue viper, I went 5.80's in the 1/8th on 20" Nitto Invo's. A real street tire, not a slick. Nothing like having an 8 second strew tire car

---

My Nittos are street drag radials not slicks and I left the line @ 3,000 rpm any more than that and it would blow the tires off.I also granny shifted it,did not want to put the tranny on the track.

PS we have a Viper that will much much faster than 7:80's but it is not a street car. At SGMSP my car was a middle of the pack car running 9:38. Was your 7 Second Viper streetable? Not to Bad Mouth anyones car,but there are a lot of race only cars on here that will not run in the 7's.

PS I went up and looked at your Viper it is nice,mine is more of a street car.

Of course, someone always has a bigger balloon. Unless you're talking about Sal's car, there are no other "much" faster vipers than that one on a drag strip. The car also went 7.80's almost a decade ago. I drove both of them on a weekly basis, putting 5k miles on each a year roughly. Both ran on pump gas, including this run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AD2Uzq45R2k I drove the car to the track, made the run and drove home. Running 17lbs of boost, could go to 35.

Not sure how yours is more of a street car than my convertible. Other than driveline mods, the car was totally normal. You're running around on radials saying my car, that's on a real invo street tire, isn't as much of a street car lol. You vette guys love to piss on stuff I swear. Heaven forbid people just appreciate the cars posted.

Both cars made around 1500hp

Is the exit tube molded that way or is it ready to
burst

That's the inlet side, it should go to an air cleaner in front of the radiator.

I think the one he is referring to is the one off the Super-Charger that goes up in front of the radiator to the inter-cooler(not sure)it looks swelled behind the clamp but is made that way.The one from the injector goes to the air filter in front of the radiator.

Sorry to disappoint, my collection is mostly late 50's and early 60's mopars. I enjoy going slow. My family has done enough racing at this point. Now, we just enjoy going slow.

Are you related to Herb McCandless? Him & Ken used to come down to a shop(Mopar) in Norcross GA and use there dyno at night.Woody Mays was in the rear of their shop building Race-Cars and he was the one who built my 1st dragster and we would go up there and watch them dyno the engines.But in order to go up there & watch I had to stay back well out of the way and not allowed to talk or ask any questions unless one of them spoke to me.
