    trading my ZL1 for a 15 SRT

    That fully loaded black GTS for $92K is a smoking deal. I love the color combo.

    Reproduction 19" and 20" Viper wheels?

    Nobody makes stock looking Viper replacement 19/20s. The demand is too small for such a wheel, not many Vipers on the road. The closest idea would be the Forgestar F14 wheels. Tony

    Poor Quality control issue

    It might not have happened at the plant. Teenagers around here have been stealing emblems and hood ornaments off of high-dollar cars for years. Could have had one of them attempt to steal your emblem, but couldn't get it off. Something to consider.

    2016 Viper ACR and the Nurburgring lap time...

    Spoken like someone who doesn't even set foot on a road course. If you did, you would know how wrong you are. Viper TA is faster around the track than the Huracan, and I've been at track days where they both ran. The Huracan still has the understeer issues that the Gallardo has, when pushed...

    How To: Shift Faster

    You are absolutely correct, the Viper has an engagement point about 2/3 up from the floor, along the pedal travel. But, when I'm slamming the pedal, I want to eliminate thinking about that engagement point, so I slam the pedal all the way down each time to keep things consistent. A pedal stop...

    Ralph at MidOhio in his GTS playin with a GT3

    Ralph's wife drives a white 991 GT3. I wonder if that was her in the Porsche.

    Gen V as a DD?

    My wife drives our Gen 5 to work 2-3 days per week, if the weather is nice. They can be driven daily, but be prepared for a lot of attention on the roads and the parking lots - even when you don't want it.

    How To: Shift Faster

    Powershifting still uses the clutch. Powershifting simply means not lifting off the throttle while shifting. Nobody races a synchronized manual transmission without using the clutch, that will just wear down the teeth on the sychronizers and cause the trans to start grinding every gear.

    Congrats! That is one of my favorite color combos. Was that the car at Tomball Dodge?

    VPA Announcement

    Well written announcement. Seems like a well planned and logical move.

    How To: Shift Faster

    Adjustable pedals are for comfort, because we don't have a telescoping steering column. So, this makes us have to adjust to the steering wheel position. I actually use a different seating position when I roadcourse race, focused more on arm leverage and comfort for a 30 min ses session. Not...

    2013 gts limited Edition - doors not fully aligned to body panel

    It is a pretty easy fix at the dealership. I had my passenger door stick out a little like that on my '14, it took Morgan at Tomball Dodge about 20 minutes to loosen the hinges and move the door properly aligned.
