In about a week or 2 my local Fnm is doing modern and I was wondering how fast it is usually won, and also any mono black vampire combos that win in 3-4 turns

{Sanguine Bond} {Exquisite Blood} + any way to heal or do damage = win
Modern tournaments are as a fact faster than most other formats, because you have combo decks which win turns 4-5-6 and then you have Soul Sisters or Jund grinding you out and then swooping in on a {Tarmogoyf} or {Serra Ascendent} for the win.

Yeah infect is a killer, I don't honestly know of any ways you can stop infect with a mono black vampire deck, sorry! Just throw your weaker vampires in front of the infect creatures I guess.

{Doom Blade}!!! :P I just don't like {Murder} lol.  I'd rather pay 3 mana for a {Dismember}.

I forgot about dismember, it was my fave card before rotation!!!!!

First strike is usually good against infect, with deathtouch it's even better.
