    Preserving Rubber Seals

    silicone is natural rubbers best friend. you can use tire shine on a rag and wipe tight spots. do not get that stuff around your seats.....PERIOD!

    Going to pick up a 2001 ACR on Saturday. What do I need to know?

    seems most are avoiding the answers youre really looking for. Look underneath the car for signs of serious scraping (undercarriage damage). Pay a lot of attention to the radiator supports in the front. look for traces of leaking fluids inside the rims (power steering or brake fluid). look at...

    Sal's Viper Crash @ MIR World Cup

    i fully agree when this happens its unpredictable and unrecoverable. any viper owner who has a little too much fun has experienced getting bit. Any of us who have worked on our cars know how the rear end is and theres no other way to properly deliver power. theres two choices... damn near...

    ZR1 vs Gen V Burnout Test

    they should even up the playing field and slap a supercharger on the viper like the vette has. then see whos king. I dont think any other cars produce the power of the viper naturally.

    autoform group

    When I ordered my top I was expecting to have it by the beginning of summer. Needless to say I was really really disappointed.

    How Earth Straps Increase horsepower

    being an electrical engineer i can see this possibly helping but not really. definitely not 4hp. the heads could end up positively charged when the coils are working hard (full throttle) and the head gaskets could insulate enough to not allow current dissipation under load. I specialize in DC...

    My viper viewed from an invisible sense....

    Venomiss Ive always meant to join but time and money (single father with 2 little girls) and other expenses. Ive been torn between my personal businesses and a more than full time job as an industrial electrician. I probably wont be able to keep my dream car much longer. My primary job is...

    My viper viewed from an invisible sense....

    The side sills on my car are the original aluminum ones. They appear rather cool considering the huge heat coming off the mufflers. I considered thermal wrapping my exhaust. After my analysis I realize it would be a waste of time and money. By comparison to the fiberglass sills...its...

    My viper viewed from an invisible sense....

    I bought a FLIR Infracam SD. They retail for $5000 and I bought mine used for $1600. The front tires are green due to them being cooler than the back tires (red) I had a little fun in it before I parked for shooting. I can see the studs behind the sheetrock in my house with it. I took it...

    My viper viewed from an invisible sense....

    All of these were taken while the car was idling after a short ride. You can see how cool the intake manifold is due to the cool air rushing in. This explains why at 3600rpm it begins to feel like a nitrous button is pressed! The cold dense air slamming the back of the intake valve in sync...

    My viper viewed from an invisible sense....

    Last week i bought a FLIR (forward looking infra red) camera for my business. I finally got around to snapping some pics of the viper with it. Enjoy! Ive learnt so much about thermodynamics with this camera its unreal.
