Video of my Gen 3 running 9 second passes.

[Nine Ball]

We rented out the drag strip about a month ago, they shot video of my runs. It was my first time at the drag strip with this combo, I was mostly wanting to try and perfect the launch. The clutch wouldn't hold higher rpm launches, unfortunately. These were all around 4000 rpm launches, cutting 1.68-1.71 60' times. When I left at 5200-5500, it was magical and I'd cut low 1.52-1.55 short times, but the clutch would then slip in 2nd gear. I ended up finishing off 2nd gear in my trans, it was on it's way out before the rental. But, that trans survived over a year of this power level, not bad for a completely stock 2013 Viper TR6060, which I purchased used from SRT. The 2013 Vipers have a stout transmission!

Great runs! Was this with spray and blower or just blower?

[Nine Ball]

Paxton 900 rwhp + N2O 130 rwhp. I spray it in 2nd gear and up. I was planning on making some blower-only passes later that day, but shredded my 2nd gear synchros.

Are you going to have Donato rebuild it or just get a new 6060?

[Venomous1 Racing]

Awesome job and way to represent the Viper Tony!
I think I know that poor Porsche lover , haha

[Nine Ball]

KP Racing in Houston has a tech that has rebuilt hundreds of Tremec trans. I'll just get them to freshen it up. Easier to deal with, being local.

[rw99]

Yes, 18" drag radials.

Noticed that, too. That's really handling nicely for a stick, that power level, and DRs. Good driving!

[Back In Black]

Very cool!

Who is your point of contact? I might have to send them a tranny.

What clutch are you planning to run and great build thread!

[slitherv10]

Great job both on and off the track Tony.

One question though..........what was that white blog in the middle of the screen in one of your runs?

[No hemi]

Nice runs!! congrats on the times, looking forward to more runs.

[MI Viper]

Very Impressive!

[BigBadViper]

Nice runs. You still have a lot left in it. You weren't fully hitting your 2 step. And it seemed like you bogged almost every launch. I think you have some 1.3s in that thing. I was launching the exact same way you were and I was hitting 1.5 - 1.8's consistently. Get your 2 step down and you can definitely drop it.

[Nine Ball]

No 2-step on my car. Clutch wouldn't hold harder launches, as mentioned in first post. Getting trans rebuilt now, will upgrade clutch too. Next track rental Jan 26.

[Newport Viper]

Great video! It doesn't even look like that car is trying hard. :)
