1000 hp Viper

[FrigginGLI]

Bet those street tires light up nicely.

That thing hits 130 where our cars will hit 30.

Wow, nice. Haven't seen a roots style on a viper before. Looks mean.

Sorry to threadjack, but what exactly does "roots style" mean?

 

[mp5jeff]

1000hp +street tires = no traction in all gears lol

roots type supercharger, the same style used on top fuel dragsters to grandprix GTP's to many other pedestrian vehicles.

I've seen video of those blower motor propane Vipers. They have a real traction problem. The car breaks loose on a 3rd or 4th gear pull. I'm talking doing 80+ mph and breaking traction during accelraltion. Now that's the new defintion of fast. You just gotta love a man with a passion for fast cars and a ton of money to blow.

 

[Kooldino]

Wow, 5500rpm redline? Ouch.

How's it handle?

That's a type of supercharger.

Handle? LOL!!! This car truley lives one quarter mile at a time. There's no way this car takes curves too. Could you imagine trying to accelerate out of a turn. That car would do more 360's than Vince Carter.

Roots style, screw type, same as whipplecharger. What Jackson Racing uses... Uses two screws to push air instead of a turbine (turbine=centrifugal, like vortec,paxton, powerdyne, ATI)

recent cars with roots style...Ford Lightning, Ford Cobra, Ford GT, Ford Thunderbird SC, Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, Mazda Millenia,

 

[RyanJayG]

roots, and whipplechargers, are similar, but not exactly the same thing. though they often times look very similar externally

Front

Look at the top right corner of the pic... it looks like a Yellow MSP!!! WOOOO Go MazdaSpeed!! Yeah!!

Sorry I am a moron.

 

[RyanJayG]

looks more like a vivid yellow MP3 to me

Whatever gets a Mazda in the same parking lot as a 1000HP Viper, I'll take!

 

[pjc1800]

Although they do circuit race Vipers they are no match to the Corvettes, Mustang GTs, and Camero SSs in their class. The power to weight is too high and the weight deistro is all off. Give me a Vette or Mustang Cobra anyday.


(Keep your damn Camero, that car is crap!! Yeah I said it!)

Keep all of those cars. I don't get the point of Vipers. They're ugly as ****. So what if you have 1000hp? Christ.

I'd honestly take my MSP over a 1000hp Viper anyday.

Yep you're correct, they look damn near identical. You know what the difference is?? I don't...

Man as much as I like my car. A viper would be hella fun. But 1000 hp sounds extremely dangerous to drive.

 

[t3ase]

you're right. i'd get the viper, sell it for mad cash and put it in my msp.
