I was starting in 3rd ;) and on the limiter before the finish line....gotta love this new found torque.
Why not shift to 5th? Won't the donato tranny take it? Awesome kill non the less!

Not sure it would help, as I'm so close to the finish. NTM, stopping from any faster mph would not be very fun.

Time for a much taller tire ;) if you data logged 183 in 4 th gear that means you are around 6900rpms:eek: that's pretty impressive on a viper motor:D

Congrats. Its nice to see the Vipers finally getting dialed in for these kind of events. Nice run by the Lambo. Looked sweet.

I just saw the speeds, missed the actual run. Great job, mid 180's is right on par with the TTG's. Look fwd to seeing you run tomorrow.

Thanks Mullet for the good run.

I just saw two cars that were pretty evenly matched, but one started a bit early and out in front

Still, props, that's one fast Viper

Were you brake boosting?

Mullett, great camera view! Great perspective!

Good race for both of you guys!

Thanks Peter. I'm hoping for the same luck tomorrow.

the Lambo brakes aren't nearly as good as my GT brakes. I'm going to look into some more agressive pads.

I had the gas pedal all the way to the floor boosting as you can hear the boost being bleed off before the hit. :)

Was this an even start between you and Hollywood? Sometimes the angle of the video throws off the perspective. Nice run btw. I'm sure you guys will run again.

Cars looked about even with both trapping in the 180's. Not used to seeing that versus an R package. Can't wait for today's fun. You guys be safe.

He was a little ahead at the hit. No excuses, he got me.

Do you have carbon-ceramics? Maybe the brakes seem worse because the TTG is going a decent amount faster in the same distance?:)

Seriously!! That outcome was amazing and my respect for both cars and drivers is through the roof.
