Just downloaded and watched a video from Kazaa, it's the DLM Viper, apparently running 835Hp @ the wheels..

From the video, this car is doing 50-110 in 4 seconds..

What do folk think to this? is this likely, or is this a bit of internet license?

If you've got kazaa, do a search for 1000hp-viper, the video should show up..

Kazaa is a bad p2p tool to use mate... Use bit torrent.

Seen that video (about 20mb), the car (owner posts on US viper forums) raced a number of busas, one of which was heavily modified with nitrous, am I correct?

I think 50-110mph in 4 seconds is possible, I've seen similar Vipers do similar times for such acceleration points (other DLM Vipers, and other sc or turbod Vipers).

Loud car though

Is this the video you're talking about?

From 18:25 on the counter, I clocked the chase/video bike doing 80-150 in about 6.9 seconds. That's about 3.7 seconds quicker than a Carrera GT...


Edit: Oh, yeah. It's legit. The video made the rounds of the sportbike & Busa forums back in March, when it was first posted. Apparently, that Viper was running with a clogged muffler after its 2nd or 3rd round with the stock Hayabusa; melted cats. Owner only had the car for like a week.
