    Not overheard, but came back to the parking lot to find these comments:

    What happens when you leave a Viper unattended in a parking lot

    I'm too old and gross to be calling someone who draws hearts in chalk... Sure was a pleasant surprise though.

    What happens when you leave a Viper unattended in a parking lot

    We parked the car in a Mormon church parking lot in Leavitt Alberta for a couple of hours. It said 'sexy ride' on the other side.

    Edmonton Track Event July 20th

    I've run quite a few driver's ed and track experience days with a lot of groups. I was super impressed by the Viper people! Relaxed, pleasant, no big "super-car" egos, safe, following instructions... it was a real pleasure! Completely opposite from what we're used to with previous high-end...

    Pilot super Sports on an ACR

    Pretty much a perfect summation! (I'd just change it to "Pilot Super Sports are great street tires").

    Pilot super Sports on an ACR

    I find they make the car feel much more vague and understeer like a b*tch on the track (though I'm sure something could be adjusted to make up for it); they are easy to find the limits of though as they squeal loudly in proportion to the cornering speed. I like them a lot better on the street...

    Just picked up a Red/Black ACR...

    Lol, neither, just the truth! The ACR's are fun to play with on the track. Consider attending a Time Attack at Stratotech (speedwayperformance.org to sign up). A cruise would be great!

    PS - lots of car guys around here know my car... so any shenanigans you get up to will get blamed on me! Lol.

    PilotSuper Sport pricing has been released

    Will the fronts work on an ACR (stocks are 295/30 and these are 285/35)? I'm going to have two sets of wheels/tires, one for the street and one for the track...

    Track Time - Calgary

    What tires are you getting (if you don't mind me asking...)?

    OK enough of the Vette mistakes

    The mistakes I've had people make are Lamborghini, a Stealth (3 or 4 times), and "my boyfriend wants to know what body kit you have on your Crossfire".

    Viper Hate/Envy

    I put my completely stock ACR in a show (by invitation as well). It was parked next to 3 awesome Lambo's, immaculate Ford GT's, Audi R8, Porsches... Much to my surprise it won a trophy for "Best Exotic".

    You Know You're a Canadian When...

    I bought a 1991 for $5k with 30,000 miles (from Texas) this fall. It looks and drives brand new. Of course, within a couple of weeks I'd ordered an FMII turbo, AFCO suspension, hard dog roll bar, butterly brace, frog arms, light wheels, better tires, clutch and flywheel upgrades, brake...

    You Know You're a Canadian When...

    The most telling part of that picture is that the top is down. Whenever I see someone driving around on a beautiful day with the top up, I think "they just don't get it".

    You Know You're a Canadian When...

    Lol, I have a Miata as well. I wonder how many Viper owners have (or have owned) a Miata. Actually, this is my third one...

    Edmonton show - "Driven"... going?

    Thanks! They spend several hours taking pictures of models in front of the car - there must be hundreds. I'll post some when I get them.
