AWD vs RWD from a stop on a street like surface...nothing new here. Was hoping the Viper jumped the start so it would have actually been a race.

What was the trap speed of both cars on that run?

I don't remember exactly as I made so many passes but I know he was like a 1-2 mph slower on tthis pass then me . My car was 155-158mph all day . We had pretty nasty head wind .Super nice owner that was parked next to us . He was learning the car ,IIRC he ended up running 160 or 161mph end of the day .

Gotcha. Bolt on Vipers like mine average high 150’s, with H/C cars hitting high 160’s (much less a 9L conversion). Sounds like he needs a lot more seat time.

Thanks , it has catback exhaust only which doesn't give power , just sounds better . I've see test dyno when car picked up 2hp but lost like 13tq on the dyno after catback exhaust

Yes, a bone stock viper has 650rwhp. Lol
What's done to the R8?
I seriously don't care if it made 400 or 1000hp .I said what the owner told me . He said car has Arrow Racing package with 9.0 stroker motor

R8 has catback exhaust only
