    Decided to sell my 01 GTS and ...

    Why do we hang out with Viperdays? Where to I begin? Let's see: Skip, Courtney and Tracy. Great drivers, instructors and friends. Great events. Great competition (not that any of us are competative). It's where I began driving. It's like coming home. See, now I'm all misty. Damn! But...

    Gerald, Good Point, no test drives, but I'll take them for a ride. Vic, I'm hurt, you know I love the Viper. Are you going to Viperdays at Thunderhill? If so, I'll take you for a ride in the Radical. Then you'll understand. Ken

    Decided to sell my 01 GTS and ...

    When I bought this car new, I couldnt find any dealer that would let me test drive, so I rented a 97 GTS for the day and was hooked. I would have no problem taking prospective buyer for a ride. The problems I have with test drives are: 1. Will they drive it properly? (Not Wreck it) 2. Do...

    Decided to sell my 01 GTS and ...

    Thanks for all the advice, I expect the low-ball offers. Fortunately, I'm in no big hurry to sell. jkracer, DuPont is a great idea, I'll probably do that tonight. For those of you who have sold, did you let prospective buyers test drive the car? Take Care, Ken

    Thanks J. I suppose your right, but it still took me a long time to finally put the Viper up for sale :( I just hope she ends up in a good home. Gozer

    Anyone Tow their Viper with a Dakota?

    Thanks for all the input. IISPMS, I've tried two more places today, and both told me they thought that they could get a module that would work, but they didn't want to install it. The local BMW dealer said to buy the module, and their tech would read the installation instructions and let me...

    Anyone Tow their Viper with a Dakota?

    Michael, Be careful, according to all the published docs, my BMW X5 3.0i can tow 6000lbs, more than enough to pull my Viper on a Quickload trailer. After I had them install the 6000lb hitch ($1000.00!), I noticed a manual addendum in the box that came with the hitch. It stated that the 3.0i...

    Anyone Tow their Viper with a Dakota?

    I had originally planned on towing mine with an X5 but it's a long story. So now I'm looking for a good pickup to be my daily driver and pull the viper to the track 4 - 6 times per year. Let me know what your set up is and if you've had any issues. I'm thinking about the Quad cab 2wd with 4.7...

    Weight of a Sloan Qwikload? Want to tow Viper with BMW X5.

    Weight of a Sloan Qwikload? Want to tow Viper with BMW X5.

    Yeah, I've talked to a lot of people, including the dealers and they all seem to think that as long as I dont exceed the rating the X5 should tow the viper and trailer just fine. But I cant find the exact weight of the trailer with fairing.

    Weight of a Sloan Qwikload? Want to tow Viper with BMW X5.

    Im thinking about buying a use Quickload, but I need to make sure my 2003 X5 3.0 (automatic trans) will be able to tow it with my 2001 GTS. The hitch is rated at 6000lbs but there was an addendum to the manual that stated the max for an auto trans was 5000lb (manual trans is 6000lb). I think...

    First time 1/4 mile track experience

    Vic, Glad to see you got into the 12s. I told you its best to use 3rd after 2nd :) Did you get a chance see who won the trophies (other than Mr. Twin Supercharger [Hugh])? Just so everyone knows, I beat the 2002 Z06 I lined up against on my second run. Actually, he is my business...
