    Breif GTS-R history & vid.

    Once again, I'm glad you guys liked the Video! I've been a vicarious Viper fan since I saw the prototype in the mags way back when... I just watched it again, I'm wondering why they didn't show any of the earlier ORECA Vipers with the "ribbon" livery & no mention of the OVERALL victory at...

    No need to wait for the official release of the new Viper, thanks Forza!

    Assuming these images are legit..... I like it!! Looks like they'll be cooling the engine exclusively with the radiator, too. (No huge vents in the hood anymore)

    Cool car behind me, on the 405 southbound tonight

    Vic, very well written, bro! I had a similar experience back in '98-99. I was in my '85 Cutlass Supreme, (307 V8 (Last pushrod Olds V8) Edelbrock intake, modded Q-Jet, Hedman hedders, dual exhaust, B&M shift kit. It was no 455, but I had some fun... :D ) Anyway, I was heading to my new home...

    Mopar Competition 800 hp drag motor wins Baja 1000

    Here's a link to their site with the story: http://koreperformance.com/kore-racing-news/ They didn't mention making any mods, or work to the engine at all. It's amazing how an engine designed to run 1320ft. at a time wins at Baja!!

    never again!!! someone at valet smoked the tires off my car

    I was on the receiving end of something like this a long time ago. I was 20, (1990) and a valet on weekends at a somewhat infamous Italian restaurant in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, NY. (Use your imagination...) One afternoon, this young hothead pulls in with a pretty new Mustang GT convert...

    "dinosaur"?? really?

    I recall it was a throwback to the AC Cobra, and Carroll Shelby did have a hand in it's development. Otherwise, the author clearly has never been in one!

    So I wrecked my Vette...

    I'm glad it worked out so well for you & you weren't hurt! I wasn't so lucky about 12 years ago, I was in my '85 Cutlass Supreme & a semi let loose many of it's retreads at once, ( You gotta love how that happens & WHY are these still legal?!?) I did my best, but I got one wrapped around my...

    94' Rent-A-Car LeMans RT/10's--where are they now?

    I remember these cars from the first two Gran Turismo games on PlayStation. I also read that they ran the same tires front & rear, from the pics I can see it's true. I wonder why they did that? Does anyone know how these cars placed in their races?

    Does anyone recognize this car?

    I grabbed this pic from Allpar a few weeks ago. The only text I could find related to it is the caption in the photo. It came out smaller than I expected. The caption reads: "Highly modified Viper- "The tubing from the waste gates is bigger than my exhaust. The car only perticipated in the...

    Clamshell hood on an SRT?

    Hm, I just remembered the ad about Bob Lutz's GTS/R on top of the page. Think he could've had that fixed before the photo was taken?
