This past weekend, Dan Fox's Nth Moto built twin turbo Gen V Dodge Viper (TA 2.0) became the first ever in the world to surpass 200 MPH in a standing 1/2 mile. 200.5 MPH to be exact. This happened last Sunday at the WannaGOFAST Heaven's Landing Georgia event. The car made a handful of mid to high 190 passes all weekend before going 198.9 MPH then 200.5 MPH.
The record pass was made at over 5800 ft density altitude using the factory 6 speed 6060 manually shifted transmission, factory 19" wheels, all TA 2.0 high downforce aero components in place, and no weight reduction of any kind performed. Everyone involved in this project including Dan has been committed to proving how well these factory components can and do work. I think these last couple events are doing a great job of proving that! The 19” wheel combo was traction limited, but I think that added an awesome level of fun and excitement making all these components work properly together!
For those that might not have followed some of the previous threads, Dan's car uses our most popular Gen V twin turbo package, Nth Moto carbon carbon clutch, and our Nth Moto MoTeC M1 partner ECU.
We've now made over 1500 horsepower on the Gen V engine platform using the as-delivered factory cam-in-cam and heads. Our new Gen V forced induction non-adjustable cam and head packages have now allowed us to push past 1600 horsepower and we continue to push harder every week with the latest cars being completed at the shop. We hope our R&D and parts stress-testing will prove to be a benefit for Gen V community as a whole!
Here's some videos from the event I think you'll enjoy! When you watch the solo video, check out the dust wake created from the incredible downforce generated by the TA 2.0 aero package. It was amazing to see how different that wake looked compared to other cars at the event including other Vipers!
