Took the car out today to stretch it's legs and give me some more seat time......I cannot give full throttle in the first three gears no traction.....I did do a 1/2 throttle pull in third and pulled to the limiter before I could get full throttle shifted to 4th gradually pushed it in 4th the faster you go the harder it pulls......this car never felt like it would snap around it feels well planted but the boost is violent 5000 rpm and up.....you run out of road in a hurry.....also in the car it sounds like thrust instead of the exhaust note.....I am going to have a smile on my face the rest of the day..:rock:

This car is scary fast......I bet my blood pressure was 180.....man this is a great car!!

LMAO!!! That's funny right there, one hell of an idea actually...:D

Be safe Walt, I'm glad it's all you wanted and more it sounds like...!!!
 
he can let you ride in the passenger seat and shoot em a moon when you do it...lol
 
Sounds like fun Walt!!

Back in Summer, I could hammer mine from a dig in 1st and it would just hook and gooooo....:vroam:

Though since the weather turned cold, it spins like nutz well into 2nd, and will lay down a 5-10' patch going into 3rd!:rock: :burnout: :rock: First gear is about useless...:D


Hopefully traction will improve for you (at least somewhat;) ) once it warms up again in Spring.

Guys this was the guy that worked on my truck at Hennesseys shop....he is a good guy...thought I would post up what he sent to me via E-mail.

I am actually sure that he will not be missing me as I was fired by him. I also would like to apologize for any problems with your build on the ram. The reason that I was let go and the reason I went without a fight was the feeling of having my hands tied while the customers suffered much like on the ram. There were several problems that I was told not to divuldge to you by John while I was working for him. But that is all water under the bridge now, I no longer have to worry about that. I wish you well on your viper Kevin is a great guy and builds a quality product. Let me know if you are swinging through town on your way back home.

Nick sounds like a standup guy, no wonder he and JH didn't last...
 
Paul should speak with Nick!

Sooooooooooooo glad that you have an outstanding ride Walt...

:congrats:

I would love to see that thing in action!!!! :rock:

HINT HINT! :D
 
I'm glad to hear this car scares the shit out of you. It should. If it didn't I would be buying a life insurance policy on you, as I would probably get a big return on my investment in no time.

Enjoy it Walt, but respect it also. The day you think you have mastered it, may very well be the day it jumps up and bites you in the ass.

Hope that does not come across wrong my friend.
 
Congrats......more pics please.......:elefant:
 
Yeah, listen to Silverback. Have fun but be careful. They're notorious for biting their owners in the ass as soon as they let their guard down.

Even though there's no comparison, I heed the same advice with my truck. Better safe than sorry. Seriously. And if you fk up that car you'll never forgive yourself.
 
Glad your new ride is still meeting your expectations and more.:rock: Your car would get me into toooo much trouble:D :rock:
