    Car&Driver:ZR1 beats the Viper...again

    You mis-read what I said. I said that the ZR-1 is a great performance car, which is self-evident as it is a virtual match in performance to the new SRT Viper (and among the top performance cars in the world). But frankly I wanted the ZR-1 to have supercar styling like the amazing Corvette...

    Car&Driver:ZR1 beats the Viper...again

    I am surprised with many of these comments (from the Viper owners). It was only a short time ago when the Viper was going to be discontinued and/or sold off. And after Fiat jumped in it was still uncertain if they would keep the Viper or not. So I'm VERY happy to see the Viper still alive and...

    Black or Chrome on Silver Viper

    For me, black wheels makes them visually disappear.:( Chrome is a nice accent on silver.:2tu:

    My Vooodoo ACR... a WOODHOUSE creation.

    Your Viper looks Sinister! And it seems like your performance and visual mods are a great compliment to what makes the VooDoo and ACR Viper models extraordinary!

    THE LAST VIPER

    I want to see more pictures first before I pronounce judgement on the color combo (interior pics anyone?) Isn't Rauh the buyer of the matte gold Hurst Coupe at auction for $275K, and it's matching one-off roadster version as well? It should be an impressive Viper collection!

    2010 Viper Pics (With Stripes)

    I agree that they look too wide on the 2010 model. But I do also believe that it won't look as harsh on closer color combinations, as it's now more like a two-tone paint rather than traditional stripes. I also was bothered previously when the rear stripes didn't go through the license plate...

    This is embarassing...but

    I've done it before a few times, but I have 3.55 rear and I wasn't dumping the clutch. Just taking off easily and smoothly. You guys are driving at another level, going for some serious times. My point was for practice, and I actually think that that a mild start from second gear is easier on...

    This is embarassing...but

    I'll also add that there is a LOT of good advice in this thread for someone new to drag racing their Viper. One of the bigger points is attitude. So many times I've been to the track and see people disappointed (myself included) because they are expecting to match (or beat) the best times of...

    MIR 13.49 Convertible rule

    There are the formal NHRA rules: http://www.nhra.com/competition/etquickref.aspx But it often comes down to the particular track, and the session. Up until recently the rule for convertibles was that they were restricted to run slower than 13.99, and 11.99 with a roll cage, this was amended to...

    Viper Wins Again !!!

    My Viper regularly got MUCH lower emissions readings than my older Honda Civic did, I was surprised when I first saw that. But in the same way that gas guzzler taxes are skewed, C02 taxes are poor solution because specialty/performance cars are rarely daily drivers. And in reality you could...

    Blue Vert with tan top and interior...

    I always liked blue canvas on blue cars, the rich blue canvas looks good on BMW M3s and Porsche 911s that I've seen using that color combo.:2tu:

    Fiat Now Owns Viper (at Least for the Time Being)

    I wonder what happened to the news that Chrysler had gotten as much as $35 million bid for the Viper, and had not disclosed that fact? Chrysler hiding Viper bid? | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press Maybe they were looking for the Viper to fly under the radar of the bankruptcy bean counters and stay...

    Another vote for all black. :D

    Would a Nur spec ACR make sense?

    I like the idea, if only to cement the thought in people's minds that the Viper is one of the world's BEST performing cars on the track.:drive:Regardless of price. :D I think that the biggest improvement would be to swap out the Viper's gears. With a 3.55 rear swap and spacing all 6 speed gear...

    SSG ACR conversion

    Personally I'm not a fan of black wheels, even on the factory ACR. And I think that your new SSG center wheels are going to look great! :D
