This 2000 hp Viper uses 4 gallons per mile

Matt Farah, @TheSmokingTire has a new show with Rob Ferretti & @EmeliaHartford called Sorted. They are putting highly modified cars to the test to see how well built and usable they really are. Here's the story of the Calvo Motorsports Twin Turbo Dodge Viper ACR.

I drove a 2000hp Calvo viper this summer, it ruined me.

So sad they quit making these, now they'll probably never depreciate.

Someone:"Alright we're gonna start from 60 to 150"
Them:"well It'd be better going 100 to 200"
"WOULD IT?!?! What a practical build you have there!!"...my favorite line!!

“I have never seen a 4 wheel vehicle go through fuel like that”. This is someone who daily drove a gasoline Hummer H1 in New York City for reference.

Absolutely insane, 8.4L v10 life
*edit: it is actually 9.0L

"Hey whats your gas mileage?"
"4"
"4mpg? Thats low"
"4 gallons per mile"

That is definitely Antonio's personality. He is a good friend of mine from when he lived in NJ. I have the video still of the first day we ever met when I had my Supra and he had his 300ZX with what he said was "stock Turbos". We raced and they were NOT stock turbos. We were friends ever since. He had a talent for building fast cars and driving them even faster. He built his 300Zx motor in his parent's garage all by himself. Hes self taught. He would Swap 300zx transmissions in a like an hour and a half on his garage floor. No lifts. Just hand tools. Very talented. I was upset when he moved out to Texas, but I am very happy to see he made a name for himself. We did alot of partying and driving and flat out crazy sh*t that I will never forget. Calvo Motorsports FTW!!

Underground racing- top dog of the high end tuners pushing 1500hp out of a viper

Antonio Calvo-hold my 8 ball

Great to see Farah in this format. Truly shows how accomplished he is presenting in an entertaining way.

"get you a car that costs more in gas than depreciation"
*well if you say so*

3:39 i have never heard someone making such an accurate repenstation of how a twin turbo charged viper sounds like with their mouth

[demander]

Matt stories are just great, watch the smoking tire pretty much just for him

[clayboist]

Love matt for his ability to put moments he experienced into words. Legit felt like I was with him after hearing that story.

[royalwolf]

“What a practical thing you’ve built”😂😂😂. This dude tells a great story. Felt like I was in the car listening to him describe it👍

[deadmansfire]

Wow, is that the former owner of the Tavarish's Million mile Lexus

[OldCoastHVAC]

For reference the track was pretty slick that we only went 5.05 had worse traction the the street, I avg 4.55s 60-150 since I started logging it after the show. We also had the car 2.7s 100-150 on wet pavement testing proving out Collin Murphy’s (ninjaneering) traction algorithm is the best in the world.

[_BAD_MERC_]

I have a bone stock '05 Viper convertible that seems to always have way more power than necessary. Even in OE form it threatens to lose traction and swap ends for a killing spree if you misbehave or lose respect for it. This TT 9 liter version is nightmare fuel. LOVE IT!

[friendlyjunco]

Calvo is an awesome dude. He took me for a ride in his viper and it was one of the coolest times of my life. Make vipers great again

[gsmith]

Him describing it is just awesome! It’s like I was right there. Great story teller. Would pay just to do it once...
