It is my car and I am on here for sure. Was a great weekend and our first time at a half mile event. We had to keep the power way down for the first 1000 ft or so as the surface was not ideal. By the end of the weekend we were really able to ramp up the power in 4th and the few seconds Im in fifth, felt really good then, pulled like a freight train! Jay at RealStreet did a great job tuning the car and Im looking forward to doing a few hardware upgrades with Aaron and the crew at Nthmoto. If we can put some more power down earlier and roll a bit more in upstairs I think we can pick up a few more mph. It really made it all the sweeter for me, putting 20mph on the next fastest LS powered vehicle. Thanks for the support guys!

Awesome runs man! What are the Details on your build? I believe you may have smashed the viper record that was just set by the nth Moto gen 5!

Thanks! The car is an 06 carbon bodied with a few factory aero pieces, destroked Viper motor which we shift at 8K, twin Garrett 80mm turbos and an emco sequential.

I was actually about 1 mph behind Nth's current RWD record.

212mph in the half requires some very serious power on very well sorted setup. Congrats on the awesome run.

This was built by Virtual Works Racing? I ran their intake and exhaust manifolds on my Supra. Great work! Jay at Real St is a standup guy, has helped me out in the past.

8k rpms with twin 80mm! Wow! How much less did you go from 8.4L?

Thanks for all the support guys. Im not sure if I am setting the bar too high but my goal for this car is 225mph in the standing half mile. As you can see from the video I am leaving a lot on the table on the first half of the track and we have some more we can put in it up top.

Yes Virtual Works did all of the fab work on the car and they did a great job. Took about .650" out of the stroke and added big bore sleeves so it comes out to about 453ci or 7.4 liters.

Here is another clip of the car on the 212 pass that someone took. Here you can see it spinning all the way through the 1/2 mile. If you notice there are only blk marks in the left lane and that is the only lane I ran all weekend. I didn't really even notice it spinning, I guess traction control was doing its job.

Nice. I was there and watched your car run a few times. I kept letting the adrenaline get to me a spun 1-3 too much. I probably had the slowest Viper out there based on slips.

It was really easy to botch a run out there due to conditions. I did it a bunch of times before I got is sort of right.
