    The Elephant in the room

    So it appears my posts are still requiring moderator approval - what's up with that? I thought that ended weeks/months back?

    Apology to Ralph Gilles

    And why protect them by refusing to disclose who it was? In general, perhaps refusing to disclose the name of a banned administrator might be reasonable, but in this case, it is not. It merely perpetuates the closed doors/mystery/refusal to be honest with members that has caused so many...

    Someone needs to run these cars at Englishtown, MIR and the tracks that have good prep. New England Dragway has good prep as well... but Englishtown and MIR are tops. I ran 1.6x 60' times at Englishtown in a GTS that had only K&N's and nothing more - stock tubes, stock halfshafts and rims...

    MY SIGNATURE IS IN VIOLATION ??? What Gives ??

    This whole issue shouldn't be such a big deal. To the original poster, the problem IMO is not that you say you are happy with your dealer, it was that you were SOLICITING customers for that dealer and as such you are pretty much acting in the manner of a salesman. I cant imagine anyone would...

    Anyone have a tail light they can part with?

    I am looking for a tail light for a Viper. Are the GTS and RT/10 tail lights different? I'm guessing yes. What about Gen I RT/10 vs. Gen II RT/10? A pair would be ideal, but I can get started with just one. I'd want to get a GenII GTS and RT/10 first, assuming they are different. It's for...

    RMS WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY SCAM

    I do retail and sell to distributors and dealers. It's *always* a game of who can pay the least, and you guys would not believe the bickering and infighting among the dealers. I get calls from A who wants me to stop selling to B, then B says A is violating their contract, etc, etc. It goes on...

    Anyone have a link where to purchase clear tape to guard against chips?

    Edward, I got 2 emails about it which I saw before I logged on here. One guy is looking to his fender lips, and I dunno about the other. so I emailed 'em asking how much of it they needed. The good news is I have 15' of it. I thought I had 8 or 10... so maybe I can accomodate you too? How...

    Anyone have a link where to purchase clear tape to guard against chips?

    Review: Windbaffle

    Hi Bob, Thanks for the correction regarding the material you use. I didn't mean to sound like I was belittling the product or that you were overcharging. I'm *intimitely* familiar with the cost of doing busines :) The price I mentioned was for "normal" lexan in bulk. Certainly the...

    Review: Windbaffle

    Actually that's not true. Don't mean to offend, but Plexiglass, Lucite, Lexan, Perspex, etc, are just brand names for various stuff. Lexan is polycarbonate, the others are polyacrelate (acrylic). The part you are wrong about is that acrylic is susceptible to scratches - it isn't. Lexan is...

    More money than brains/Viper prices

    It's also a pretty common "excuse" for selling, along with 'wife wont let me keep it', etc. I've called on many "Financial hardship, MUST SELL" ads only to find the price wasn't that great and they were teasers. Most folks aren't going to write "car has had so many problems in the last year...

    Watch out in Wallingford CT

    I think they are required by law to disclose such damage. I know when I was waiting for my BMW that they are "allowed" to fix up to a certain amount of damage (for some reason $1,500 sticks in my mind) and any more than that must be disclosed to the buyer - there was a writeup on the BMW site...

    04 SRT-10 White Mamba

    Only thing I can say is it's stupid to call it a "white mamba" edition that has a connotation of extra-specially venemous... because basically it's a few pieces of leather in a different color. For $2,500. Gee what a deal. So this car stickers at $87,295 now? I hate to say it but they are...

    Viper Calendar Project clips 300!

    Chris, Forget all the choices and just make every month pic # 104. And then all will be right with the world. After you send that girl to me, that is.

    MASH'S APEX 550 STROKER

    Re: MASH\'S APEX 550 STROKER I know job security is important in tough economic times, but I have to disagree and say it's not as complicated as you make it sound. :) When you sue someone you can sue for whatever dollar amount you want. Mash adds up what he paid, plus what it cost him...

    MASH'S APEX 550 STROKER

    Re: MASH\'S APEX 550 STROKER Tom, You always gotta get the sales angle in there :) Just teasing you, I love what you've done on NOS! Mash, Dealing with warranty problems is a real pain in the neck. I had a very similar problem crop up with a customer recently where I had to take a...

    New C6 looks like SRT 10 ! Spy pics!

    Actually the concept coupe (later to become the Comp Coupe) had those rims and was touring the show circuit well before the Z06 was ever even shown, forget about released. So GM actually "stole" that design from Dodge.

    Would you be worried?

    If you want them, go ahead and bid on them... but ask him where he is located and tell him you will be in the area and will stop by and pick them up. Then find a Viper guy in the area, wire him the money or FedEx him a cashiers check and have him go pick up your wheels and drop 'em off at...

    10 throttle bodies... Cool? or Junk?

    Yeah these "Giwasa" guys are the ones I was thinking about. Their are full of $h!t in my opinion. Look at their outrageous claims... +10HP@1000RPM from a 10-TB setup? Ok, but it won't make power at 6,000RPM then! Two different things! And check out the 'specs' on their car. 6-speed...

    Venom Bumpers

    Check the Texas VCA site - Prashant (ex-prez) had these parts on his silver GTS and I remember seeing a lot of pics, and I think it was on that site.

    10 throttle bodies... Cool? or Junk?

    Giwasa? Aren't these the guys that talked about some crazy powerful turbo setup they had, and they had pics of the car on their site, and there was no intercooler or any "turbo" stuff visible? And then they had pics of the car after it had obviously been on fire? Maybe I'm thinking of someone...

    I Cured My Idle Hang!

    Only thing about that is, why was it getting worse? Seems like the fix just cures the symptom and not the root cause. Its a weird problem - my car did it too and it was getting worse.
