Topic: Who was that masked car?

Just getting around to taking off our video from NL. Here is an interesting clip from the middle of the night.

"We came in pieces. We left in more..."

Re: Who was that masked car?

hahaha, i was like okayyy, our #42 Peg Leg Rum Runners goes by pretty swiftly with a dunce cone, then all the gravel shooting up i was like what the... then saw that... looks like #48 spins out?

I think I'd like to see the next 30-45seconds of video because i noticed a car i was duking it out with comes up on you at the very end of the clip.

This I can provide. The night-cam was pretty darn good, you just lose all the color.

I pooped only a tiny, tiny bit. Washed right out.

Re: Who was that masked car?

I think the dirt and gravel was from me - if you watch closely, you can see me spin off on the inside of the turn before the Civic goes off on the outside. That was what took out the apex reflector for turn one....sure seemed to last a lot longer when it happened!

I've watched that clip a number of times and never noticed your car going off to the right. I had wondered where the gravel came from!

Now if anyone has video from when someone took off our rear bumper, that I'd like to see.

well, the problem is, the car is physically capable, very few drivers are capable of making the viper go that fast. It eats the newbies, and a lot of more experienced guys. Just make sure you have some association with Chrysler or Zakspeed before attempting.

P.S@ Raydoc - thanks, My night stint was largely obscured by high glare and cheap cameras. would be nice to have a night spotting of the #24 Buick smile

I am well aware of the Viper's capabilites... I also know that it is in fact, as you pointed out, a DRIVER'S car. It's not for the self proclaimed badass.

I was just trying to jab some ribs... surely some one on here owns a snake.
