Re: Red Death
PS Yes i still do have the Blue Viper .Nick has the engine apart, (Monmouth Park) I dropped a valve in a magazine shootout 2 years ago and took it off the road.I want to sell it .Interestling enough even though the car is a four time Atlantic Mopar National Champion and has over 35 grand in the engine it is worth only slightly more than a bone stock Viper because that is the realistic market value.Just because i was foolish to put it in doesnot meen i get it back when i sell it.

It'll be nice to have another Apache around here! I'm the only one these days now that Steve is in GA!!
PS. I rode on the ocean with Billy a couple times over the summer and I think he was a little surprised when the slow antiquated Apache was keeping up with the 51 OL..

Re: Red Death
Frank the guy with the record is my friend Evan Smith (magazine test driver).Things are getting out of hand with these cars now its insane.Years ago i ran a streetable 650 hp on pump gas and had on of the fastest Vipers on the east coast.Today my car is a toy.One thousand horsepower twin turbos are almost commonplace .A guy i used to race with Jason Heffinor produces engine packages in the 1600 hp range on pump gas.Hot Rod tested one of these things and proclaimed it the fasted true street car in the country.7.8 at 177MPH .The car is streetable enough to go from NY to LA with the air on.Just sick.
