13x mph in the standing 1/2 mile?
198 mph in the standing mile?
Those mph numbers seem more like a 750 rwhp car.

It's even worse. The official silver state results have this car winning with 197mph. Maybe 750hp is accurate given the 7000ft and 95 degree ambient.
According to Shane - the wheel sensors showed slippage through the TOP of fourth gear. It was running 9lbs of boost which has to be 1200-1300whp.
Looked it ran outa gearing at the end... not sure.
In any case - you should have these guys COVERED in Texas!!!!!

Apparently it is owned by some Pro Mod guys and they were just there to try and sort it out. They said with near 2000 HP it was a disaster, so they pulled it down to 1000 HP and it was still breaking the tires loose.
Here are some fly by vids from the event in here but none of the Viper:

for reference my Ford GT at 609whp did 195.5 in the standing mile with a strong tailwind at the March Texas Mile.
It now has 994whp and should run 215-225 depending on wind speed. The GT's are geared VERY tall (256 mph is doable with enough power on stock gearing).

Yeah, I'm sick I missed going last March. With that tailwind, I'm guessing cars gained 10-15mph.

yep, most cars got 5-8mph on that day. I got 7 extra mph cause of the wind and cooler temps. If we get that this year I should knock on the 225mph door.
