    Back in a viper...

    I have one exactly like it! 2009 ACR with 10,500 miles. Few times on the track. It runs great! And I still get a lot of oohs and ahhs. Congratulations, and if you are ever in SoCal, let me know; we have an active SoCal Viper Club.

    NARRA 2013 Road Atlanta - Videos/Pictures, etc..

    Is NARRA televised anywhere? Last year it was on the Speed Channel, but I cannot find anything about NARRA this year on television. I checked their web site but there is no mention.

    7.11 at 201mph, yikes!

    I get a daily update from Motor Authority. Posted today was an article about Late Model Racecraft claiming the fastest ZR1 - quarter mile in 9.68 sec, 147 mph. Pretty slow compared to the 7.11/201...

    Daily driving... How safe?

    I will personally vouch for the 2008 year. I was driving my 2008 ACR and minding my own business. I was cut off on the freeway, hit a pole, rolled 2 times down an embankment, totaled the car, and walked away from it unhurt in any way. Not even really that sore the next few days. The top...

    ACR in commercial

    Did I see a TV commercial last night with an ACR in it? We had a party and someone told me they saw it when I was out of the room. I think it was for the Nitendo DS. The car was shown from above and then a female race driver was shown buckling up.

    Gen II re-sale seems the same if not more than Gen III

    I keep close track of the value of my '99 red RT/10 every year on Jan 1 with kbb.com. I put miles on it and it now has over 50,000. I always choose private party sale and good condition. I bought it on Jun 15, 1999 for $68,500. Here is what I have on Jan 1 of each year (started doing this...

    Vinyl Stripes...Wax...Longevity...Color Matching

    When my '99 red RT/10 vert was used in a Jack-in-the-Box (fast-food mexican/hamburger chain) in 2003, they put white vinyl stripes on the car. They were going to take them off as part of the arrangement for using the car, but they looked so good I left them on (despite some ribbing from SoCal...

    Viper owners must be rich ?

    I get the same thing whenever I drive either my '99 RT/10 or my '09 ACR to an umpire assignment which I do very seldom. Whether it's a travel ball (ASA), high school, or college game and I am noticed by people in the parking lot, the typical reaction is "wow, we must be paying you umpires too...

    09 ACR vs 09 ZR1, Forum Wars on Speed Channel

    I attended this event. Dan did the Viper Nation extremely (!!!) proud. There was a modified Nissan GTR, a stock GTR, Cadillac CTS-V (550 HP?) and other modified cars. Dan had the best 1/8 mile time by a good measure. I watched the autocross and Dan did a great job. I am anxiously awaiting the...
