I hope this is a good place to post videos since I used to post everything here

Video

Sorry if this is a repost but when you are watching the video, pay attention to his speedo.

 

gawd damn, i wonder what mods that has

 

This just in.... Those cars are FAST!

 

Zoinks! Both those rides are HOT!

 

the dams speedo on the vette flys from 80-120

 

I love that JAWS music while showing the vette. Too bad it lost to the Viper....

 

i know that Viper very well...the vette isnt a slow car either, just didnt have quite enough that night...

 

well the viper sprayed

 

sweet vid

 

vette has a S/C oh yea an V1 >*

 

I know what the video said, but I dont think the Viper sprayed on the vette...either way, they were both supercharged and it would begin the age old debate "N20 is cheating"...I know the vette is faster now, but I dont think there is a rematch scheduled..

 

A stock ZO6 can do 100-150 mph in a lil over 15 seconds. The Lingenfelter TT car can do it in under 7.

 

really? i thought there was def spraying. NOS, FI whatever If people are gonna be racing snobs then NA is the true king. neee ways............i don't hink the viper would really just walk the S/C vette like that.

 

vette had forced induction too... So whats your point?

If he did indeed have N20, both cars were force fed then so whats the difference....

You lose, you lose. The point is to make HP....

Anyone who thinks N20 is cheating should also think turbos and superchargers are too... I think a lot of people really don't understand N20.

 

Hmm... let's see, n2o runs out an needs to be refilled, FI gives permenant power. Lets see if there's a difference here

 

Run what ya brung - if you lose b/c the other guy sprayed - then you lost, go home, quit bitching.

Spraying N2O is common with high power FI stuff, so it's not like he brought out teh secret weapon from the ricer world and owned the Vette.

 

so? FI is FI.

 

I'm not saying there's anything wrong w/ N2O in a drag race, winning is winning, even if though its a Vin Diesal kind of view. But N2O is not a valid measure of the prowess of a car, N2O is simply steriods for cars, you don't replenish your steriods you lose your strength.

 

This is street/drap racing here, not a 24hrs Lemans race

 

My reply was in reference to

Which isn't referring to any type of racing, just the physical differences of FI

 

I see your point, but what difference does it make for this kind of race if it needs to be filled up or not? I'm sure most of us here realize that you need to fill up the tank. Both of these cars prob need race gas to run full tilt on anyway, whats another couple mins there to fill up the n2o? Most of these cars have double 20lb tanks or so too, so they don't have to be filled up every other race.

 

i bet its alot quicker than 15 seconds, thats seems pretty high

 

Lingenfelter Twin-Turbo Vette takes 7.6 seconds from 100-150mph

Henessey Venon 800 Twin-Turbo takes 7.9 seconds

A stock Viper does it in 12.5

A stock Vette ZO6 does it in 15.3

Comptech Supercharged NSX-T takes 18.6 (!!!)



It may seem slow, but it takes a LOT to get a car going that fast, prob take a CL a min or two lol.

 

Damn do I love Vette's! Did you see how the front end just lifted up when he was accelerating?
