Congrats to all who have ordered the BTR Nos kits, way to go. Ones going on a red snake, I'm guessing Tom and Sarah have one and Paul has another, just wondering who's the lucky snake getting the 4th Nos kit being sent to the UK? 2004 is the year for bottles in trunks, (although I've just put a water tank in mine!). Nice to see some others going for the mods. Lots of fun.

Yes, I'll look forwards to the Mopar nats too, I can't wait to see a Viper on UK shores run in the 10's or even make 9's with slicks. I'd love to see a street UK Viper drive to a strip and post such a result, the BTR set up sure gives you a good shot at it, we'll be cheering for you. Meanwhile myself and another will be flying the wheels under boost!

Looks like the cat is finally out of the bag!,yes we have one,was trying to keep quiet untill first viper meet but it seems like some things are impossible to hide!We have made quiet a few mods to the car including,autoform rear wing,autoform roll cage,upgraded fire extingusher kit,a few trick bits to the running gear and engine,1997 gts/r chamberlain le-mans graphics,just waiting to fit side splitters/roof duct and kumos the car is going to Power Engineering in about 10days for the 2 stage kit to be fitted along with a few other "trick bits"to help put the power down in a controlled way,we hope to have near to 800bhp at the engine when all is done and would like to think a optimum eta for the 1/4 mile in the mid tens,just got to learn how to drive it and get the power down!!Power is nothing without control as they say!!

The Vipers should be beating the other cars, not each other!!

PS Tom/venom500 is this the last time your going to do Elvington? You said your moving to NZ? Sell your Viper so someone in the UK can buy it!!

I didn't order the propane cylinder because I thought I would not get it filled up over here so I part/ext. it against a spare NOS cylinder.I suspect I will have to change the propane regulator so I can install a calour gas propane cylinder.(you might want to check that out venom 500)

Congrats Venom, nice mods, can't wait to see your snake this year and watch it go down the quarter. No snake's run NOS over here yet, great you've finally gone and done it. Please take me for a ride?

Cool that everyones treating their Vipers to some tasty underhood goodies. Sorry to post about it for those wishing to keep it 'secret' (I've a good idea who the 4th snake is but your secret's safe!!)

I'll be doing Mopar nats on the Saturday only.

A little bird has told me Nad has got or is looking for NOS?!With your supercharger or without?Your very quiet on this forum so me thinks your up to something beavering away in that garage at night?Can,t wait to see a Viper running NOS AND SUPERCHARGER!Looks like the stage2 heads and cam will have to be fitted after all to keep up with you all!(Was hoping i wasn,t going to have to pull the engine but this leaves me no alternative i,ll need at least 850-900 to whip that kind of set up).

Mr Venomn...Ahha, you been chatting to Race-Graphics then...yes, he's making me a very "trick" NOS bottle sticker for inside my rear window, and some "trick" jets for onto the intake hoses, and some "trick" purge valve with "trick" spray coming from my centre hood louvers.

Been quiet on the forum, yeah Working loads, to pay for a brother snake (could it be I'm going to be the buyer for the SVSi worlds fastest Viper!!??)

Did get to work on mine in the garage yesterday, pulled his sump (hmm, could this mean a dry sump motor!!??)

I already regularly administer shots of NO2...you should see the size of the bottle I dish it out from at work

nah you’ve changed your side markers to clear from the stock orange..

Guess I’m buggered also with the corsa, K&Ns and Smooth tubes, sounds a bit pathetic with all the others mods going on.
