Is that Associated oil weights?
Are you running #2 pistons up front and #1 rear? Silver springs up front and green rear? I bleed the shocks kind of like I do Losi shocks, open the bleed screw and fully compress the shock, put the bleed screw back in.
The car only slaps on BIG air.
Another thought. We run the car without an undertray. A couple guys at our track run an undertray and I think that makes the car sound like it's slapping 10 times worse than it is.

It's not if numbers have never been fudged by factories before. Without knowing if they are using Power Factor (motor efficiency) in their watts equations, then the numbers do not mean a lot by comparison.
As an example of manufacturers fudging numbers, take a look at nitro engines claimed horsepower numbers.
Like others have mentioned, it comes down to the driver in the end.

Wow, where did you get that from? I was merely pointing out that factories either include motor efficency in their wattage numbers, or they do not. I never stated that Viper or any other manufacturer lies about numbers. There are just two different ways to achieve stated wattage.
