    awesome c6z06's vs new ACR track vid

    Yep, done that 2.5 mile road course many times - fastest speed is on the back straight, coming out of turn 1. With stock gearing, top of 4th is the fastest I could ever get (about 161). Recently changed to 3.55 gears with the hope of getting into fifth and still having some power left before...

    PS2's - Two Different Speed Ratings

    Thanks Jon, that's exactly the info I read before posting. I know the "Z" means nothing anymore. If you read all the way down, however, the parentheses do mean something - with parentheses (the old "Z"), they are rated at a higher speed ("in excess of 186 mph"). But, if they can't be had, then...

    PS2's - Two Different Speed Ratings

    Agreed the difference is slight and I'll never be able to tell the difference, but has the "R"/"MO" tire been sitting on a shelf longer? I certainly did not get what I paid for...

    PS2's - Two Different Speed Ratings

    Thanks Jim, you've confirmed what I've got... My previous ones - 275/35ZR-18 (95Y) do have a "C1" after that and nothing after "Pilot Sport" ("PS2" is in small print under the "t" of "Sport"). My "new" tires "275/35R-18 95Y" (no parentheses), like yours, have "MO" after "Pilot Sport" (along...

    PS2's - Two Different Speed Ratings

    Kind of feels like I paid for a Rolex and got a "Rolax", but I ordered them via the same vendor I got the last set - he's real close to your northern location (not his fault, as the invoice was for ZR's and they were shipped from an eastern warehouse).

    PS2's - Two Different Speed Ratings

    As, as I noted, it is a "Y" on both sets, however the parentheses do make a difference. Since I paid for ZR's and got R's, I'm returning them...

    PS2's - Two Different Speed Ratings

    Just got another set of front PS2's. Unlike my previous ones, which indicate 275/35ZR18 on them, these say 275/35R18 (and the stickers on them also say "R")... I realize the real speed rating is the "Y" in the "95Y" following the size info, however on the "ZR" tires, the 95Y is in parentheses...

    With the Roe SCT Tune, I gained 21 RWHP and 47 RWTQ (same Dyno, same day, one run right after the other). See my post http://forums.viperclub.org/performance-modifications/611723-sct-tunes-thanks-roe.html#post2547769

    gen 3's with bolt ons dynoed?????

    Yea, light weight. Didn't really expect more power, but less rotational mass is always a good thing. No problems whatsoever - I'd have to go back and check what it cost... Ron

    ACR Radiator Hose Collapse Video....

    This is not new (not just a Gen IV issue). I posted the same thing (with video) in March 08: http://forums.viperclub.org/srt10-srt10-coupe-discussions/612376-upper-radiator-hose-hi-rpm-cold-nearly-collapse.html Ron

    Roll bar/ Aero wing on vert.

    Yes it goes all the way down - no welding, just a bit of cutting. Took me maybe four hours (by myself).

    Roll bar/ Aero wing on vert.

    I installed an Autoform rollbar as well (fairly easy to do) - it comes with an entire replacement "plastic seat frame" (bulk head cover). It has no impact on rear-view. I also have the Autoform hard top - one thing to note is that you will not be able to fit any high density padding on the...
