Y'all are far too serious

Snake.. a turbo is a power adder btw... and lower boost and 20's would make the car slower than most UPS trucks..

Oh - and a Keith Black Valiant is hardly a "tuner car"
Good I was hoping you were being sarcastic 8) BTW if you notice in my post I said "NO NOS or any other power adders other than the turbos"...So I know turbos are power adders...Just that the Viper needed only "1" power adder to be .2 behind the Valiant and 7mph faster in the 1/4 mile Plus it may even be cheaper than the Valiant project. BTW this Viper was the one that was in the pump gas drags that did the 8.6 @ 168mph on pump gas and turbos alone...

Also low boost on this Viper is in the 900-1000+rwhp range...More than enough to manhandle 20" tires and outrun most UPS trucks

You must have never seen a UPS truck during high volume Christmas delivery season - those suckers can cover 2.3 neighbourhoods per hour

Veyron is a nice and quick car, but I think that it would be more fun to ride with sleeper and beat it in drag.

You always have to do some compromises when building a car. If you want to go fast in drag you can't make best cornering car or nice winter car. So you have to have many cars for every driving mood
