So I'm retarded, now what...It has been my experience that Vipers break more often than I see other other cars do when racing...If there is a Viper owner on here that is modded and not broke then let them speak...Otherwise F/O or S/U.

Ok, I’ll play. You’re full retard. And that will go down as one of the most stupid posts ever on the internet. Congrats...

36k miles on my Paxton Viper. Oh, wait, I did have to change the battery again in May after 9 more years. I guess that confirms that modded Vipers are a POS.

Holyshit, I thought ya'll playing around and knew each other. Look away for like 4 hours and

making my current relationship issues seem sane...
Bad ass cars no doubt, 2 out of 4 apparently lighting on fire... not great numbers. At the same time working out some shit on ridiculous ass ****ing machines, happens. These "stock" engine (rotating assembly, etc)? What they're doing with the new ACRs makes my flag fly, glad to see some American bad ass compete with the GTRs and Lambos. Granted M2K owns all, but there is one of those, not 3-4 roaming the streets in one state.

Wheres the crazy auto TT cobra on here? badasscobra or something like that? Love to see the match up. My money is on the Viper but love to put things into perspective. Everything in that video is so out of my realm can't even put it in perspective.

I have a heads, cam and headers Gen V Viper that has made nearly 100 1/2 miles passes. Runs 167.55 N/A and surprise, surprise, has never broken on the street or at the track. I made 23 passes at the last 1/2 miles event...my boys and all of their friends enjoyed the ride down the strip. Claiming to see a modded Viper every time you go to a track is BS, and that they all break is BS. This is simply a numbers game where the Vipers are always outnumbered 10 or 20 to 1 by Corvettes, Mustangs, Camaro's and Hellcats.

Those Vipers are really pushing the limits. One had an intake backfire, it did not start on fire. That is a factor of a stock motor (and intake) making over 1000 rwhp. The TT car was unfortunate and that was a bad fire. Keep in mind that can happen on any car and fires are not specific to Vipers. The TT Vipers have quickly become one of the baddest cars on the highway.

he would likely get slapped around like a play toy with some of these even stock motor set ups. Which is saying a lot because he’s cobra is a crushed on the streets

heres a stock engine Gen V making 1200+hp for 2.5+years doing remote tuning in Bahrain. This was posted today.

Good for you and good luck in future...If you read my original post I say that I like the Vipers and still do but my opinion is that they break alot when modded and you won't change my mind, sorry...I just don't fit in them being 6'3" and they are made for a 5'10" person...They just didn't take off when new...I saw them on dealer showrooms when they were two model years old BUT, have always liked them.

Still no posts from Viper owners hmmmmmm...I do drive my HotRods and occasionally one does break...As for toughness, I'm assuming you're a Viper owner, check back in down the road and tell me about your breakages although I wish you many trouble free miles, OK rumpkin.

Here's a post from one.
But I don't know what you're looking for tbh.

Mine is stock and bulletproof. What else would one expect from an 8.0L engine making only 450hp.

The power these cars are making is crazy, looking for example at Calvo Motorsports.
A guy here in Sweden has a Calvo 9.0L engine. Dynoed at 736RWHP N/A.
First time he never got it running right so Calvo took it back to the US, rebuilt it and then that time to make sure it's good they put it in a car and tested the piss out of it to verify it's good and sent it back. Ofcourse it was a bit of a tedious process with him diagnosing the car in the middle of the day here in Sweden (night in Texas) with Calvo Motorsports on the phone.
That's customer service.


But it seems like you're having troubles comprehensing what it takes to make that kind of power.
1000+RWHP isn't like stroking and slapping on a Holley 4bbl carb. It's a whole other game, it's not even the same sport.

Another viper owner here, I beat the crap out of it every day. It’s my daily, just felt like I had to jump in lol. Currently saving up for a cm1300x package.
