1st Exotic Top Gun Run, STANDING MILE Event-MIAMI
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copy paste in case some of you are interested

On Saturday, November 14, join other Exotic Car Enthusiasts for the 1st Exotic Top Gun Run, STANDING MILE Event, that will be held at the Dade Collier Air Strip located about 25 miles west of Miami.
This event is like NO OTHER. You will have 1 Mile to accelerate as fast as you can, and to achieve the fastest MPH in this distance. There are only a few other places in the US you can do this safely, and without fear of earning any speeding tickets. This is in our backyard, so be sure to come out and have a great time.
There will be 3 beautiful trophies awarded to the top 3 places.
Regular price is $225 per driver, $275 day of event. For all paid VCA Members, it is $200. To register, please print out the Tech form, fill out and include a check payable to Top Gun Run. Send the check to Viper Club, P.O. Box 415179, Miami Beach, FL 33141-5179. They must get your check by Friday November 6 in order to get that price. Don't delay; space is extremely limited! Once it sells out, it's done.
FYI, I am working on getting a Buggati Veyron out to play that day, but rest assured, there will be many exotics out that day. Come and represent the Viper and show them that we've got what it takes to go the full mile and to put down some serious MPH and take home that trophie.
This is where Big Dogs Play. Yes, the 1/8 Mile is fun; 1/4 Mile is exciting. The Standing Mile? Well let's just say that there aren't many who will have what it takes to go the distance.
Also... On Saturday, November 7, there is an Open Class Top Gun Run where anything modern runs, including motorcycles. If you're interested in coming out, please don't hesitate to do so. The record so far in the Standing Mile is 261 by a Toyota Turbo Supra, and 265 by a Suzuki Hayabusa Turbo.

....on the little strip of road that's marked at 1 mile, I tapped 180-ish a few times.

Not bad for a pure N/A car.

I want to Twin Turbo bad....I just need the money.


The issue with the big power vipers is no street trans can hold the tq. I have broke 2 G-Force trans, 1 "T-Rex" and about 3 stock ones. It's always the same issue, 5th gear. 1-4 can handle anything, same with the rest of the drive train. 1500rwtq will bust alot of stuff.

My turbo motor being built (SLOWLY as funds come in) should rev free to 9krpm. I figure with 10L @ 9000rpm with tiwn 91's...It should make good power.
