i actually got a Viper out of the hole tonight with my Silverado. 4WD AND 610FT/LBS OF TQ AT LAUNCH FTMFW

first 30 feet i had him, then he blew me out of the water

 

Good job toasting that viper 1990...too bad there aren't many 30 foot tracks now days[8D]

 

IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!!

Wow.

P.S. vipers are sexy.

 

The legend continues...

 

It will never die it is the core of all evil.

 

through all the "mods" listed in this thread to beat a viper with the God-like 3800 series II, there is one simple true way to beat a viper.. and it can be done in 2 steps.

1. Drain all fluids from car.. (ok this counts as a bunch of steps)
2. Replace them all with Gatorade.

Good for at least 500 horses per cylinder.. at least thats what the dyno says..

 

I would have never thought of that...

 

Yep, Gatorade works wonders! Hasn't anyone ever tried that before? And don't forget to add a lot of stickers, those are good for at least 20hp a piece![8D]

 

Wouldn't you think mounting a squirrel-cage fan on the rear spoiler would be a better trick to try?
A 3.8 can go much faster in a tail-wind!
