Default Possible Corvette eater

I tweaked a Supercharged Dodge SRT10 pick up today. It had a built Viper V10 engine with a Roe Supercharger making 8 PSI of non intercooled boost. This thing does have meth injection and in this mode, it made 702, without the meth it makes 660.

I doubt its going to eat any corvettes up, but I can bet it will surely surprise a few of the unsuspecting vette drivers, at over 5000 pounds and even with 700hp on tap, it is still a heavy slug.

That's quite a torque monster. Good for pulling stumps.

So Fred, what will you "pull" with your new stump puller....? I know you're a pilot, but do you have stock in petro/rubber?

I saw that truck this past weekend at Tom's. It was in for some final tweeking. It's really a beauty but I can't imangine the gas bills. Especially when premium was over $4 a gallon. And I suspect we will be seeing high gas prices again.
