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
