Silly Things with a Viper

Well, I think a really good driver could win the Clubman Cup with a completely stock Viper, but for Cr15,000 plus a bit for stabilizers, I think I'd go with just racing tires and stabilizers; it's pretty easy like that.

After goofing around with that, I took a fully tuned Viper to the GVE Spot Race, and won in 3:10.759

The track (in arcade mode) claims to be 1.880 miles. So I make that

That was my first and only attempt at slow racing.

A site of "worst (winning) times" might be funny.

Another thing I did with a fairly tuned Viper was attempt to recreate the game Demo 1 (GT Cup Grand Valley win with a blue Viper). It's not easy to make an exciting looking demo in which you win; if you can win a race, you tend to run away with it too soon.
