that would a be huge jump for street tyres zubair smile if you could get in the mid 11's with street thread that would be fantastic.

So im 100% positive Nad will be on drag radials, set at around 18psi or there abouts

I think that so fast for a non-turbo engine, the Turbo's put out some big numbers, I'd love to see Naughty on a rolling road .I'm sure Nad is very much down on the Turbo boys in the power stakes, but you can always put money on her making use of every ounce of power and is second to non in putting it down. I have to say I've seem quite a few drivers who may have heeps of power but just don't have a clue about set-up or power application.
"Power is Nothing without control" ,never a more true word IMOP....WAY TO GO NAD!thumbup

Nad has been going great recently and achieving a couple of her ambitions, a sub 10 for the 1/4 and completing a standing mile at over 200mph.


















wheelie bars will be needed soon smile
Well done Nad !!!

That is an awesome time, a brilliant 60' and a very respectable speed....congrats, speed at the 1/8 is also impressive. Not everyone appreciates just how fast that is, how much input is required and just how difficult it is to achieve that level. Respect bow

S/C, to give you an idea a stock viper would be around 114mph over the 1/4 line and Nad crossed that on the 1/8 marker

Thats one hell of a Viper,are there any in the country as quick? Love the Blue and White stripe colours.
I dont know much about these cars but is that a non standard nose? and in my travels to the Mopar Nats and TOTB the Blue/Whites and Black/Silvers seem to be always pounding the strip and setting the fastest times,is because this model year is fastest or is it that these cars have the fastest mods?Sorry for all the questions but I am currently saving for a GTS and would like to know which model (if any) is fastest and has the best engine /spec from the factory before commiting myself.Thanks again for posting some great pictures,it looks so dam fast off the line!

There's a couple of other UK vipers that should be just as quick, with a bit of tweaking wink the owners are all on this forum

non standard nose on Nads car above, for better aero's over the stock nose on airfield runs

there's isnt really a faster model GTS (1996-2002) in stock form theyre all pretty much the same 450bhp-460bhp, if you ever decided to mod an earlier car pre 2000 is better, though the later ones have a few more luxury items like ABS, and some nicer interior touches

And keep clear of STR/10 (Gen 3 ) Models, the prices drop like a stone and the early models are holding their prices well and will only go up in value(IMOP). I would also invest in a Viper Guide Book, book sellers Chaters should have a copy or try e-bay.
If you need any help just post on the forum and ask for Neil (If he doesn't know it then its not worth knowingbow)
