    ACR Cup Tires, Do you Suggest Them?

    You might want to try the Pilot Sports with the C-1 side walls. Grip like the cup, but better for the street.

    Any Legitimate Carbon Fiber Interior Vendors?

    I agree with using APR - speak to Peter. I have a 2003. I had him do the Satin finish on the dashboard and console, but chose flat for the dash enclosure (in order to cut down on glare). It turned out great, and doesn't have the "stick-on" look. If you are interested, I can send you pictures...

    Any recommendations for performance driving books?

    Hi Aaron - I too loved the Twist of the Wrist books (although extremely technical). 6 years ago I transitioned from track days on my 2002 MV to my, now, 2003 Viper. As you can see, there is a little crossover, but very different. A simple book I like (and pretty much covers everything) is Bob...

    My car, APR and jackstands

    Peter, I know we spoke already, but Peter Chung at APR Performance has always treated me fairly, I have found their work to be excellent, as well as customer service. In your case, I believe you purchased the product through a 3rd party ..... not through the vender directly (where you could...

    Hi Peter - I am sure you are dealing with Peter Chung. He is a great guy. Their product is proven ... a lot of drift and high speed applications. I have had their stuff for on for several years ... very durable. My car is the 2003 all black on their website.

    Looking for Gen 3 T-56

    Hi Sho off - Have you considered trading out the T56 with a Gen IV transmission. I lost my transmission (in my 03 recently) and am doing the upgrade. If you want to talk, I would be glad to share my knowledge (although limited).

    Buy a Gen4 or Buy a Gen3 and Add the 650hp Upgrdade in VCA Mag ?

    If I am not mistaken, I think the Gen III will need new headers to work with the Gen IV kit. If so, you need to factor the cost of this in with the kit. Also, depending on the header system you choose, you may only have room to run one cat or need a high-performance one.

    What to do when you lose control of a SRT10?

    Lance - thanks for sharing the Car Control clinic, which I think is mandatory for all clubs to help learn the Viper. We try to have it annually and it is always the most attended event. Last year I had one of my sons drive in it. I can't urge the local Presidents enough to put on one of these...

    better, not shorter shifter?

    I had Dan Cragen at DC Performance install the Hurst Competition shifter kit on my 2003, which also shortens the shift. It was night and day from stock. It is easy to find on the track since your elbow naturally finds the console and the shift lever is right there. Another mod which was...

    Belanger Headers at Laguna Seca

    Paul is right about the side exhaust. I believe it is 92 decibels. The "noise" tower is about 100yds up the hill to the right at turn 5. I have a 2003 with headers and corsa's. There is now way the Viper would pass.

    Track and street alignment for 2008-2009 Vipers . . .

    I have found that tire inflation is just as important. Two weekends ago, we ran at Spring Mountain. Dan Everts had suggested 29 front/28 rear cold tire pressure, with maximum 35 hot coming off the track for the PS2's. When I came off the track at lunch time, my hot tire was 37 to 38. I...
