Thanks, brother! Owe you one
Tried to have someone on ViperAlley host it. No takers.
It was a blast running against him. To his credit, it isn't easy to hook up in a Viper on street tires.

Again, sweet run bro
Thanks. I launch between 4500 and 5000 rpm depending on track conditions. If you listened to this video clip closely, you'd hear that I actually bogged a little. I was launching at 4500 rpm on this run. Had I launched around 4700, I probably would've had a better 60' and e.t. deeper in the 11.80s. I don't exactly dump the clutch but it's close to it. I release it very quickly in a controlled manner. I don't powershift but I do shift very quickly at 6500 rpm.
Exemplary job of putting that very able snake over your knee and . . . well, the video tells the rest of the story. Did anyone else see the faint impressions of Paul's hands in blush red on the glutamus of that fanged chariot? Way to cream him on the hole shot and hold him off all the way down the track. Join me in giving Paul a . The boy can drive.
