    Better than Sidewinders?

    I was told by CCW that the SP500 was not available for the Viper due to the 6 lug configuration.

    08 viper vs stock ford gt?

    I'm sure you did pick up some HP with the exhaust...the stock piece is pretty restrictive.:2tu: Hey! just noticed your avatar...that black w/o stripes is sweet. Ours is red w/o the stripe.

    Our 05 GT made 539rwhp bone stock.....we added pulley(18lb boost) Accufab TB,Headers and Borla exhaust along with a tune. The car now makes 704rwhp.....mod dollars spent was ~$5k. To the original question,stock our GT ran neck & neck with my stock C6 Z06.....so I think the 08 Viper(with...

    Paint shop mucked up my Viper.......

    No,it was not....that's what has me perplexed. The shop came highly recommended by some friends of mine that had used them for several high end cars.

    Paint shop mucked up my Viper.......

    Due to vandalism,I had to get my Viper repainted. When shopping for a good shop,the first thing I told everyone was I wanted it to look like it had never been painted....which meant no orange peel & no trash. Well,the car has neither,but it does have a buttload of places in the paint where it...

    Traded C6 for an 04 Viper

    I recently traded an 06 Z06 for an 06 Viper Coupe........I wanted to do it ever since the Gen3 coupe came out,but it would have cost me about $20k. I actually gave my 15k mile Z06 & only $6k for my 2k mile Viper.

    At 4000 rpm in second before she hooks up?

    Being a mid engine does indeed help traction somewhat....but the bigger factor is gas pedal modulation....and slipping the clutch. Just keep practicing.....you'll get it!

    At 4000 rpm in second before she hooks up?

    Don't get me wrong.....the PS2's are great when it's warm,but they do drop off in grip when it's cold more than any other tire I've ever used. The PS2's even have a warning label stating something to that effect.

    $3,500 for your OEM 5 spoke wheels/tires

    These wheels were not the 5 spokes...the Razors have a mixed review at best.I'll be shocked if anyone will sell you a "mint" set of 5 spokes with as new tires for $3500.00 Good luck to you,I'd go ahead & give Hennessey a deposit for the next set he gets were I you.

    At 4000 rpm in second before she hooks up?

    What kind of tires are you running? I know the PS2's **** when the temps below 50......We have an 800HP Ford GT and don't have the problems you describe....I did however have the exact same problem with my previous daily driver(Z06),but it was because of the tires....PS2's. Good luck and be...

    Another cosmetic problem on my 08

    The rocker panels on my 06 Viper look like crap after 6k miles... We also have a Ford GT & after 3k miles the rockers still look factory fresh..go figure.
