I just found a board down here with sick cars a lotta boost vipers etc, and these dudes love their track racing (not drag)
Probably bad I just watched underground racing videos too.
my vote F DSM, Moar power to VIper and suspension and traction setup. Then run on a low power tune for the track if need be.

There are many viper guys in TX. The big hp guys primarily do 1/4 mile, the Texas mile, and the TX2k (you should see them next month). We was thinking of preping one of the vipers better for the track but figured I wouldn't have the guts to try it competitively with one of those cars. Body parts are too expensive. We chose to do the dsm so we could attend SCCA classes and possibly become licensed.
We are still thinking of setting up one of our cars a little better by adding some of the parts we have though. We might throw the following parts on one of them:
-Big brake upgrade
-swap to a rear end with bigger gears
-Throw the ported heads/aftermarket cam in
The ported head/cam swap should get it into the 550-600whp range and the other parts should help somewhat. Any more power than that on the road course would probably be useless. We could turn in the shocks a little (factory ones have adjustable stiffness) but we would probably leave the rest of the suspension stock as it is expensive and the car turns fairly well as it is. We would want to be able to drive the car comfortably on the streets as well.
