Again, Show me the NHRA rule that states an IRS is not allowed if you go
XX.XX or faster

That's not stock... Stock would have been without the Nitrous...
The factory Viper Fuel pump will not handle fuel flow for 800HP... there
had to be other aftermarket parts, and therefore was NOT stock.

He lied... Double HP and it's bone stock... Crank and rods would have been
all over the track
Hennesey Motorsports builds vipers and in their advertisements, just to get
to 600 HP they have to replace pistons, rods, crank etc. (It's on their web
page!!)
