    Thanks guys for the on the cars

    tampaSi

    So who's quicker?
    He got the viper a few days ago, so he's still getting used to it. We only ran one time off a light and I pulled on him, but he was having a tough time with traction. Im sure he's faster in optimal conditions, but the C6 with a few mods can run, even in vert' form.

    He's getting some mods done this week (white stripes/springs). I'll try to work on my "skills" (ie. change the camera settings) and get some better shots.

He'll beat them to ****, and if he loses, runs under my dad's car and makes this noise I can hear from my room. So I load up a nice sharp tipped pellet into my pellet rifle and cap a bitch. 950FPS of pellet rain.

    morale of the story, if you are to buy a car over 30k you need a 1000 dollar camera and 3 years of studying how to use it

    or bring a friend to shoot your cars that knows what they are doing.... I have no knowledge of how to work a camera. Thank god for digitals with AUTO function. Makes me look semi good.

    Your buddy did good on the Viper. Its the last American hero, last of the cars that would ever be built without electronic nannies. I think though once he learns how to drive it, your gonna have a hard time, again, once he learns how to drive it..

    Original post just trolled all of you hard... Yeah maybe it wasn't ideal that he took blurry shots but I don't think he posted them on accident. And then he comes back with a half dozen good albeit not great shots within no time at all.

    first of all, I think the guy was trolling us.

    second of all, for all the people saying "oh why expect him to have great pictures hes not a photographer!"

    Please. My 10 year old niece can take better pictures than that. Put it on auto and let the camera do all the work. Its freaking 2012. My cell phone takes better pics than the first set.

    Anything done to the Viper?

    K&N Intake and a tune wakes them up. I/E and a tune put it at 472whp I believe it was. Fun cars...I would love to get the coupe in a few years from now.

    My brother recently sold his modded Gen 4 that was making nearly 600 whp and picked up a super cherry '99 Gen 3 GTS. Though it's slower right now, he seems to like it more. Also, the motor's bottom end is forged for that model year, and they handle up close to 1000 whp on the stock hardware without issue. I think the main reason he sold the 09 was that he wanted to continue modding (he says he wants around 800 whp at some point in the next year), which is something you can't do with the VVT cars.

    Yeah my buddy had an F1R Procharger for his, and was going to modify Paxton brackets to get it to work, but realized the block can really only support 700hp and after that it is on borrowed time.

    He seems to be really happy with it with just having exhaust/intake, and its a blast. I haven't driven it yet but it is owed after he bumped someone at a yield sign with my truck

    Once the TBSS is paid off, I think I may start looking for a C6 Z06 or that gen Viper w/ hardtop.
