    SRT dealer format deciding factor

    Any thoughts of adding the Gen V to my garage is now decided. My local dealer has decided against the cost of selling the gen V. The closest dealership is 80 miles. Looks like it is back to bowtie.

    Tons of new Vipers

    I did not preorder 'cause I thought the lines would be huge. I was a little bored at work tonight so I went to Autotrader. 116 2013 Vipers popped up. Guess I did not need a preorder after all.... Time to shop.

    08 Rear Diff

    Does anyone know if the rear diff in the 08 would be interchangeable with an 04. I have a CC diff in my 04 and hate to let it go when I get my 08. Ideally I would like to have the CC diff dropped into my 08. Anyone in the know on this?? Greg

    Stolen SRT-10

    Our local dealership had a surprise two nights ago when the 2005 Black SRT-10 in their showroom was stolen. It seems a couple of local juvi's broke into the show room and used a Stratus to drive through the front glass. They let it roll into the street and then took the Viper. Local PD...

    I never thought I would say this,

    ...but it looks like the Viper may have an equal or better in the C6 Z06. Remembering how my 02 Z06 felt around Mid Ohio compared to my 00GTS I can only speculate the new Z is going to be quite a challenge to outdo. I am particularly impressed with the aluminum and magnesium frame. I really...

    Need Bracket Pics

    I am working on Aero for my 00 GTS for Viperdays 2005. I need some pics of the brackets used to anchor the front splitter cables to the car. Under body pics of the frame mounting points for the splitter itself would be appreciated too.

    Comp Coupes

    I just received my VOI 8 packet and was surprised to see the set of three custom comp coupes for sell. I love the red white and blue paint scheme, remeniscent of the Oreca team. I am looking forward to seeing those three in person. Now if any of you philanthropists see fit to throw $$ my way...

    Many thanks to Russ and the Archer Team.

    I recieved my GTS back from Archer for ViperDays at Putnam Park. Russ and the Archer team had installed Motons, springs, and new sway bars. The car was phenomenal. I had become so frustrated with the cars unstable behavior (or maybe just my pathetic driving) at the last couple events. This...

    Thoughts on noise

    I pulled out from home last night to go to work and got on it fairly hard. I could not identify the side, but a fairly loud sound began not unlike the sound a playing card would make in the spokes of a bicycle. It would get faster when I sped up, and slower when I slowed down. I made a left...

    Who was looking for a trailer

    A wanted ad was posted in the classifieds section for a 22ish ft enclosed trailer. I am probably upgrading so drop me a note. I have a 24 ft enclosed, I will be at VIR with it if you want to look at it.

    Super SUV

    I liked the Renegade products shown to us at Gingerman, but not sure its the right thing for me. I figured a nice 32' trailer with lift would be grand, but with my GTS on board too much for my diesel Excursion to pull. I have found the ultimate tow vehicle however. A super SUV based on a...

    K&N Filtercharger whistle

    I just finished installing my K&N. Simple. There was no plastic flash on any of the nipples. When I started the car a slight whistle was heard that became very loud with RPM increase. The noise was coming from the attachment point for the crank case vent hose. I removed the system and...

    Cooling problems.

    For those of you who track (or off-track) your car and notice cooling issues here is a lesson learned from my radiator swap. When I removed my OEM radiator I had so much hay trapped between it and the oil cooler probably 30% of the radiator was not getting air flow. I was unable to see this...

    Notes on Ron Davis radiator swap

    I completed the change out of the radiator in my '00 GTS yesterday. I used a pit at a local oil change shop and the job took right at 50 minutes. One note I should make regarding the upper attachment points for the radiator. The Ron Davis came with no mounting hardware, the presumption I am...

    Reminder to do good PM

    My GTS is pretty much now just a school car. Yesterday I had it out for one of its bimonthly trips around town to keep things running and noticed a clunking from the rear end when I lifted throttle. I looked all over the interior (it sounding like the noise was coming from inside the car) and...

    Sprocket picture

    My tech called me down today to see my car with the sprocket exposed. No issues on mine. I took a shot with my cellcam, not the best quality, but it is easy to see the bolts in question. If someone wants to host the pic I will email it tonight. I still have the issue of the check engine...

    Cam recall

    I woke up early this morning excited to take my SRT in and have the new 3.55 ring and pinion JonB sent me installed. I crank the engine and it wont start. After a few attempts it finally starts but the check engine light stays on, (*&^. I drive it to the dealer and walk into the service...
