Yup, supercharged. Claimed 607 to the wheels and I for one believe it. You ever see the video of the 20b turbo AE86? Watching that Viper hit the straight was exactly like that.

Watching the viper pull away out of turn 15 onto the front straight was just like that. Only daylight. And not a Toyota. And nobody screaming like a little girl. ![]()

Thanks again to Scott & Matt for putting this one together! I got home around 11:45 last night there were so many CHP on the way home I figured one lucky "exhaust ticket" break was enough for me so I took it kinda slow.

That was will in the PS7 car, not the RX8. The 1st gen 7's are a "handful" to drive. I race the NASA Pro7 class, and lead points in it. Will's just pissed I was able to pass him on the -inside- of the toilet bowl 3x our last race event there. Always lookin for a new line. ![]()

All that said, that car could have gone *much* faster through the turns... and Jim knew it. I think he'll be more comfortable out there next time, and take it up a notch.
