i just dont believe it, not a viper. 10lbs of boost on that bike? quick math, the vipers gotta be making around 1600 horse with it being full weight. On race/pump gas mix??

that's a MR turbo kit and maybe with the full exhaust it's making 235-240 at the rear wheel with full exhaust maybe with the a RayJay turbo. I don't doubt the car is fast but use my Busa on 20 lbs. of boost and you would see a different view from the Viper....... The back of my bike. Viper's are cool though.

Its all in the numbers up to a certain speed. The way this car pulled "if it was true" says to me that its not a top end car. When i say its in the numbers, your looking at a bike that weighs almost 500lbs with say an average rider of 200lbs= 700lbs with a (guessing) near 300 pony engine. A Viper weighs what? 4000lbs... Simple math... No im not sayin that it couldnt beat the busa, but 10lbs of boost shouldve been a wipe.
I had a Viper SRT 10 roll up to me on the highway and give me the hand. Not really in the mood i rolled it to the stops in 5th gear( no downshift) and slammed 6th. The guy never touched my bike. I was stock then. Heavy cars like that need somewhere in the ballpark of 900 horse to take a stock busa. Ballpark 1300 horse for moderately boosted busas. ** key thing though is that if the car is build for top end its gonna take the busa almost everytime. (aerodynamics)

Ok, so heres the update on the video and the car. Did a little research about Heffner Vipers, and WOW! Most of the cars he builds put down 1600-1900 bhp. Knowing that, i do believe the video might not be as unreal as previously thought. But my next excuse is "how much money did you have to put into that car?"

I call BS. I messed around with a twin turbo supra{1200 hp} and at 4 lbs of boost I still pulled him. Then I progressed my boost to 22 lbs. LOL He wanted to try me again, I let him jump first and 50-180 I pulled him by 150 yds. He told me it looked like he was going in reverse.
