I lost to a Viper GTS on the freeway going up into the mountains once. Blew my friggin motor on that run. He basically walked away from me once we hit 140MPH

Yeah well that is kinda expected, it's what those cars were designed for.

Sinful7 08-18-2003 02:19 PM

yes, of course! Although, I have yet to lose to a Viper since. Granted I have done significant mods, and I've only been racing R/T-10's, but still. It's funny how altitude takes the ummph out of naturally aspirated cars.



In fact, I was racing a 360 Modena last summer and he didn't pull on me very hard. He won, but not by much.

Yep, I have a friend who lives in Colorado outside Denver. He bought a 89 mustang gt, when he brought it out to Michigan, he was like holy **** this car is fast. We did calculations and it turn out to be like 10-15% of your power goes bye bye at ~7k feet altitude
