Andy Nelson and D3 Performance raced at the Texas Invitational June 12th-13th. Andy won the RWD Challence, and was runner up in King of the Street. Great showing for the Viper community IMHO.

Description of the car: D3 Performance modded, Greg Good engine, Turbo 400 transmission, twin 76mm footwell mounted turbos. It makes 1747 at 25 PSI.

After winning the RWD Challenge:

Holy crap - the AMS GTR sounded wicked.

Looks like the Viper represented very well.

On a side note we cruised our customers Twin Turbo Gen5 from Houston 4.5 hours up to Caddo Mills, put the customer in the car for the first time and the first time running at TI and he clicked off a 151mph pass on setting 3 (out of 5), then we drove the car back to Houston yesterday with the AC and radio blasting :)

Well done. Great to see Vipers representing at these events like they should. This isn't the cheapest, but damnit if aint the best RWD platform out there :)
