Tranny is perfect. Diff developed a slight whine before I ever learned how to shift like this. Diff replaced under warranty. I doubt that the diff whine was related to the shifting Speed shifting like this is completely smooth and there is zero jarring feeling. The drive train is under almost constant load.

Gas pedal is flat to the floor. I am basically "tapping" the clutch pedal between shifts for a slight moment. It's hard to describe - but the sound and the acceleration is incredible.

The drivetrain being under almost constant load is what makes it feel more stable honestly. No head bopping off the headrest between shifts. I can't imagine how shifting like this damages anything or adds increased wear.
You can hear in my video that the RPM's are fairly constant so the clutch isn't slipping anyway.

My Viper has 17,000 miles on it now by the way. Clutch engagement is perfect. Car drives perfect. Been to three 1/2 mile events and easily 40 runs down the track.

What's your best 1/4 mile time and trap speed?

What's your best 1/4 mile time and trap speed?

I took the car to the 1/4 mile track when I first got it (1/2 mile racing wasn't a "thing" yet). Had no idea how to slip the clutch to launch it. I honestly can't remember. I'm pretty sure I broke into the 11's but I don't remember the trap speed. It was 95+ degrees that night and insanely humid.
One of these days i'll make it up to Gainesville and see what the car can do with better tires and a more experienced driver
