Mark,
I realize this is like pouring gasoline onto an open flame, but... to provide a little extra motivation for our rematch on the 16th, I had my tuner bolt a couple extra pieces into the engine bay. I hope you don't mind

I play for keeps Remember what I said about arms races...

The lower curve is our Viper last time Mark & I raced. The upper curve is it two days ago.



My cards are now on the table. I'm curious to see what Mark's bringing to this matchup!

Uh.. It's a supercharged V10 that's almost 3x the displacement of an STi, but I'm with ya... After all this $$ you too... Can... Beat a Subaru! Er, in a straight line... Maybe..

Don't get me wrong, I love mine - but - I wouldn't be too bummed if a car that cost around 3x what mine did before any mods, taxes, or insurance could go faster down a drag strip. I mean, for all that scratch, the thing darn well should be faster than a Suby!

D***, Ben.........
We haven't yet made the final choice on the turbo sizing....i guess after seeing the pictures/dyno sheet, i'll have to get the biggest one they have....

But after its all said and done,...with 690whp ur viper should be in the mid/low 10's or so, which will out do my STI.

See you on the 16th...

Mark - I'm predicting high 10s, actually - with SC there's less midrange torque (and thus area under the curve). And that of course assumes I drive it perfectly.

Do you want to spill the beans on your setup now, or leave it a surprise?

Is this competition exclusive or could I get in on it? I might have something in the low 11 high 10 area depending if parts come on time
