    Tom's rear brake upgrade worth it???? also which pads?

    I installed Tom's 40mm rear calipers( about $900 ?) on my 1997 GTS and am very happy...no more flat-spotting front tires. I also installed Carbotech pads ( about $400 ?) and Castrol SRF fluid ( $70 ) I have 18" Hennesy wheels so I could have opted for bigger brakes ( and put the $1,370 toward...

    Where in the heck does this ridiculous idea that a Viper cannot handle come from?

    This is funny...they have always said that about a Porsche for 50 years....engine hangs way off the back...only a very few experts can drive a P car....the rear engined design will have you going backwards into the tullies if you try to approach anything near the limit on a curve....ill handling...

    Ferrari's guys in the Ferrari forum talking about the new Viper

    I am a member of F Chat and many in the forum really like the new Viper and the performance specs. In a poll against the new 740hp F12 ( coming out at end of year for $380,000.00) the Viper did well ( 21%) against the Ferrari and garnered a lot of compliments. Some are unhappy the F car...
