I watched this the other day, and these cars are incredibly impressive. I do in someway, feel like the trap speeds were a little lower than I was expecting for cars that are supposed to be making as much power as they are…?
Those Vipers were putting the power down better than the rest for sure. Love the sequentials. They are geared crazy, pulling 3rd-4th-5th in the same breath!

Great, great video thanks for sharing.
Regarding the trap speeds.... If you listened to the comments about the tuning, they are only using half the available power in the first few gears.. i think i heard 1650whp in 2nd gear.
They have them dialed in for sure. That was a great watch.

I perceive this to be an apology of sorts for the other thread. Trying to bury the hatchet?
So each gear has its own tune? Crazy.
I wonder if the low trap speed is indicative of how they have the boost by gear setup and how they're manipulating torque output to maintain traction. If you noticed, they were putting the power down much sooner than the other guys. Perfect example was the very last race vs the GTR. GTR was all over the track, while the Viper was not.
Blew my mind when they were talking about some of the RPM they're turning with those long stroke V10s... Holy smokes!
Ya pretty crazy.
Maybe it’s just indicative that the faster you go, the amount of power increase that is needed to increase trap by each MPH is more?
A member here just ran a 8.8X at @164 from a dig with 1500rwhp
1000 extra HP and from a roll I’d expect more.
But then again it’s not like a funny car since they have to ramp the power in. Seems they’ve hit the limit of the platform.

Figure another 150K + for an ACR that a lot of these guys use. Also there are upgrades with in every lot that apparently add up quickly LOLThe CM2000 package is $230k.
I don't want to know the price of that car. lol
