What year Viper will he be getting?
i beat a brand new one pretty convincingly from a roll race...mods in sig. it was stock though.
You're pushing more weight (about 250 lbs.) so you'll need about 480-490 to the rear wheels IMO. And a good launch.
A roll race between a pullied Cobra and a GTS should be a close race IMO. Torque will be about the same for both cars. Cobra will probably have a little more rwhp. But the Viper is about 200 lbs. lighter.
96-02 are the previous style Viper GTS's. The 2003 Viper would be a SRT-10.URDONE said:

Speaking of Vipers, have you talked to Sal (sp) lately?
The GTS just came back out....called a SRT Coupe. They are expensive though, sticker on one is close to $90,000.URDONE said:
GTS is the 96-02 Coupe Viper. SRT-10 is the 03-06 Convertible Viper. Like I said, the SRT Coupe just came out not too long ago. HP rating on the new Vipers is 510. Torque is 535. HP on the GTS's is 450.

About a month ago. I have to call him though, he called about two weeks ago, I've just been very busy and keep forgetting to get back to him.Mike K said:
He is going to be WAY north of 1,000 rwhp. :rockon:
You definitely need a bit more power to offset the weight. Not sure of the exact amount though.URDONE said:
I wouldn't even bother racing him unless you are pullied. Assuming he is a decent driver, he "should" beat a non pullied Cobra.
Subscribing.
My buddy just got an 03 Viper. It is stock, and it is his first sports car. He has only had it for a couple of months. It's tight in the ****pit, but very ergonomic feeling.
He got it because he liked the speed of my car, but now he thinks it is the fastest thing on the road.
I know I can out drive him, but not sure how I will do against that V-10.
Magazines stats:
0-60 mph in: 3.9
1/4: 12.1 seconds at 121 mph
So I would like to know some real life highway stories as well before I go talking smack.

At the track, stock 96-02 Vipers run around 11.9-12.4. Of course it depends on the driver and conditions. My buddy ran 11.67 in his 01 GTS with minor bolt ons.

Yeah, they are extremely tight in the c**kpit. I sat in a 03 and it wasn't the most comfortable thing. All Vipers are like that though.rmgtc01 said:
I am very curious to see how you and him would do in a roll race. It will be close. Go race him and see what happens
if you go from a roll make sure you are in your RPM range and not his, you will need some mods.
Hell I'd just like to see some around here
