I was thinking today that a viper was going to dip into 7's before us. :(

BUT! :)


A Viper DID dip in the 7's before us. Their best was a 7.98, we just took the record over! :D 7.99 then a 7.91 to back it up!

A run that was highly contested and disputed, and never backed up. As far as i'm concerned, it never happened...:)

Cool. But I bet that record won't hold up long to the viper. I love seeing how the viper and the MK4 supra are constantly breaking records in the 1/4 mile and 1 mile.

Here is a twin turbo viper, 1900hp ran a 7.99 1/4...I find it funny that a V10 with twin turbos is battling agianst our inline 6's with a single turbo :biglaugh: They say world record,, does that mean world record 1/4 mile for a street car? cause i know there are drag supras and drag vipers that run faster than 7.9

The "world record" they are claiming is the "6 speed IRS" category. Neither of the vids you posted are cars in that category.

This might be a stupid question but what does IRS stand for? And just curious, whats the world record for a MK3 7mgte??? :)

Ummm, i cant beleive you dont know that, it stands for Independent Rear Suspension, and whatever record thats being held by a 7M MK3, is probably going to be shattered by the man that posted above you ;)

Considering nobody has taken the pot for hitting 10's during the Texas meet yet...

I'm still waiting on Duane to put his auto to good use...

I doubt Slow66 is IRS...... I think someone in Puerto Rico might have the IRS record for a MKIII with a 7mgte with a 5 speed, Please feel free to correct me if i am wrong....
