    Viper to be canceled and new Viper to come in 2012

    Does anyone have a link to Ralph's audio speech on the 4th - I could only download his powerpoint doc: http://www.chryslergroupllc.com/pdf/business/dodge.pdf Take careful note of page 30 - any idea how we should interpret "Under Consideration"?

    SRT Coupe weight - naked!

    if its 2300lbs - why does production have to weigh 3400? The performance difference of just 300 lbs is huge. Thanks for that info...the weight seems too low but if thats what it is then that answers my question.

    SRT Coupe weight - naked!

    No one knows? The reason I ask is to figure out how much the Gen IV body actually adds, and if there is any worthwhile to get the weight down. Maybe its the frame and drive train that puts it there. Just thinking about the weight of the CC, and whether its approachable (especially minus the...

    viper vs. sl65 amg.....

    Buy some good rubber - go to strip and use them up, do it again until you know from doing it. What do they say, it takes 10,000 practices to become very good at anything.

    The Biggest Viper Myth: The Viper Handling myth

Mind you, if you are unable to exercise TC with your brain the back is going to get loose since the car has torque - that...

    Cold tire season starting, be careful!

    The only real way to properly heat up a tire in warm or cold weather is to drive it easy to build up heat over time. Give it 10-20 minutes at city/hwy speeds before you try power - its what the trackies do every time..2-5 laps building up speed (=3-5 minutes at 80 mph). Don't lose it when you is...
