    More on '08 Viper

    :dunno: The earlier posts of the trouble some are having with the new '08 Vipers has been on my mind. I have a black with red stripe convert that was built February 14th. The car still hasn't been released for shipping. When I was at the dealer, he had a venom red coupe for almost a month. When...

    06 Z06 vs. SRT

    :drive: Since I own both of these cars, I would like to add my personal info about this matchup. The best I have run with either car is exactly 11.9 .... both at DeSoto Speedway. Both cars are stock, and I am a very average driver. I can't imagine that the 100 more horsepower in the SRT '08 that...

    Viper and Z06 ---- side by side

    I am not a "traitor" but I took delivery of my Z06 2 days ago to add to my collection....however I still love my SRT 10. It is too early to make alot of comparisons, but the Viper is still more of a rush with its torque, sound and toplessness.....and still turns more heads. The clutch uptake...

    drag racing times / magazine vs. real times

    I would like to try to clear up some of these magazine times on the SRT-10. At the DeSoto Viper event over a year ago, I ran 11.9 with 1200 miles on the car and no mods. Two other 03 Vipers were at the same track. A red one ran 11.9 which was also stock, and a third one ran 11.7 with no air...

    V-10 Nationals

    The V-10 Nationals in Bradenton were great. Saturday there were about 30 Vipers running. They were nice enough to let me run my Mercedes E55 with them. We ran 12.39 at 112mph. Sunday I brought my 03 SRT. There were two other SRT's in the stock class as well as other Vipers. All stock SRTs...

    Bradenton Fl dragstrip

    I was at the Bradenton dragstrip this weekend with my AMG E55. I couldn't take my SRT 03 because the stupid flickering lights are still a problem. Also I was worried about "THE BOG" ----not fixed yet either. There were about 6 Vipers, including Larry M from Orlando. They ran 10's and 11's all...

    Red Shift Light ?

    I have shifted my SRT and have seen the red shift light come on. I have now used this as a gauge for serious shifting for speed. It comes on at 5600 rpms. I have used this as a guide and have not hit the rev limiter. The shifts are very positive and powerful. This light was not on my 2000...

    Valve and Shifter Issues --- Vin 284

    Had my dealer check with Dodge to see if my Black SRT vin 284 was on the valve recall list. Strange, but he was never given a list of the recalls thou he was aware there was a problem. I have not gotten a letter, but I wanted to make sure that I was not affected by the recall. The word he...

    Bog between 1st and 2nd gear

    :confused: Has anyone experienced a bog between 1st and 2nd gear in medium to hard shift? There are two other new vipers here that also have this slight power loss when shifting hard from 1st to 2nd. So far, no fix has been determined. I have just over 400 miles and I just began noticing this...

    Gripper shifter for SRT

    :cool: I have just purchased a gripper shifter from MGW for my 03 SRT. I have not installed it yet, and would appreciate any comments you may have. I have a shortened stem shifter on one of my C5's. It is a tad more effort, but much more precise when shifting from 2nd to 3rd at the drag...

    #284 delivered

    Just picked up my black 03 SRT. Vin # 284. Drove home.....loved it. The car is much better looking in person!!!! It is tight and I also noticed the clutch has a higher takeoff than the GT. The top is easy to work. Trunk is decent. There is heat in the footwell but not too bad. I put my...
