    My Fellow Americans...it was a GOOD run

    But now its time for the Viper..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3ENX3aHlqU and this brings up a cornucopia of feelings.... the engine, the vibrations, the roar, the rawness, the predatory nature, the beast, the brawn, the bully, the baddest ass car ever, the buddies, the dyno tests in...

    Is it just me or does activity in the Viper world seem low?

    Last time I checked Viper guys had hair on their chests and were serious supporters of American Sniper. When did we become language fag....ooops i mean police? The Viper is American car owners and car guys at their meanest and most serious. We party hard, we ride hard, we race hard, we fight...

    Hey... yadda yadda....yadda yadda yadda.....and guess what? YADDA YADDA! AND MORE YADDA YADDA YADDA! You didn't address a single f*cking fact Bob. Not a single f*cking relevant fact. All you are doing is making you and yours feel good. Bottom line? sales suck interest sucks participation...

    lol par for the course for the simpletons that just don't get it. and since that's all you think you need to know about me to form all you need to know about me actually says a hell of a lot more about you than it does about me or anyone else. lol I will leave it at that.

    Is it just me or does activity in the Viper world seem low?

    Bob, I have facts and data. You have opinions, links, and articles, but no facts. And at the risk of being Dragnet.....just the facts ma'am....and the facts are: 1. Dodge closed the Conner plant for weeks to reduce Viper production. 2. Dodge dropped the Gen 5 Viper price by $15,000. 3. The...

    Is it just me or does activity in the Viper world seem low?

    1. Agreed...but meaningless. People judge a sports car by its stock numbers not by what tuners can do. I raced an Audi S4 that stayed with my heavily modded Viper til 140 mph. But no one is raving about S4's. Either its badass off the showroom floor...or its just another car. Oh and Bob is...

    Is it just me or does activity in the Viper world seem low?

    Several reasons activity and participation has fallen off. To sum it up....nobody in the hard-core Viper world listens. 1. Underwhelming power and stats for the Gen V. 1/4 mile times are the standard bearer for the definition of a Super Car. Its funny how die hard Viper guys say that stat...

    Viper vs new Z06

    Dang...looks like I really put my foot in my mouth on this one. I've been ripping the Gen 5 six ways from Sunday and bragging on the C7 Z06. While its still early in Z06 production, it just goes to show that numbers in rags are meaningless....its what happens in the streets that counts. If...

    Heritage vs Fast, Faster, and Fastest

    I ordered my wifes blue convertible C7 Corvette about 2 months ago. Then I went back to order the C7 Z06 black on black for me......but just couldn't do it. The Gen V just looks like a work of Michealangelo going down the street like an artwork of mechanical sex, beauty, force and presence...

    Possible 2016 Supercharged

    The rumor and likelihood of an 800 hp supercharged Viper has the competition sh*tting bricks on their sites and forums. First Dodge STUNNED the Hot Rod and sports car world by building and releasing a 707 hp insane Hellcat Challenger....so now the competition is taking Dodge serious again...

    Possible 2016 Supercharged

    Somebody is FINALLY LISTENING, and this should have been done from the beginning of the Gen V. It only took 3 years and really poor sales for the Viper Gods to figure out that dominant sports cars are supposed to be faster than the competition, and not just faster on some road course in the...

    Gen V forum posting vitriol discourages SRT/Dodge participation

    Its apparent you don't know sh*t about sports cars. FACT: The Dodge Viper sales are disappointing. Interpretation: Most sports car guys are not buying. FACT: Gen 5's listed as low as $72,000 are sitting in dealers lots for weeks...and months. Interpretation: Most sports car guys are not...

    Gen V forum posting vitriol discourages SRT/Dodge participation

    By and large Viper owners are passionate people, passionate about sports cars and very passionate about the Viper. Sports car owners are usually very competitive people, and Viper owners tend to be very very competitive. I for one am not going to sugar coat anything because quite frankly when...

    Since a Stock 2015 Hellcat w/ DR's Just ran 10.85 @126 ph in the 1/4 Mile...

    Well the technical term is Pony Car...and has a stock Cadillac V run 10.85 in the 1/4 mile? What about 11.2? And the Hellcat looks a helluva lot more masculine and menacing then the Caddy...but hey..thats just my opinion. Folks are lining up around the corner to buy the Hellcat...are folks...

    I'm #4. Im getting a Hellcat no matter what happens with the Viper. This car is just too bitchin' to pass up...black on black with black wheels...and maybe red racing strips and red trim here and there! Yeah baby! :headbang:

    Cam and/or headers will probably get the mph up, and just use simple extrapolation...what are the official 1/4 mile times in rags for the ZR1, GT-R, Audi R8s, and other forced induction cars. Even the Mustang 662 hp car, then look at what these cars are actually doing at the tracks with minor...

    See what I mean. And I've been saying this every since the Gen 5's performance data was released a couple of years back. I've been a sports car fanatic every since I could stand upright and I know what most sports car guys want in their dream sports car...and one thing they don't want is to...

    Since a Stock 2015 Hellcat w/ DR's Just ran 10.85 @126 ph in the 1/4 Mile...

    Does make you wonder, or if they are planting the seeds to prepare us for an automatic option on a 750 or so hp Viper. In the video you hear the Hellcat driver tell the old school driver, "this car is an automatic and shifts faster than you I don't care how fast you shift". And in the video...

    Since a Stock 2015 Hellcat w/ DR's Just ran 10.85 @126 ph in the 1/4 Mile...

    Spot on klam, and its amazing to me that so many Viper owners do not understand that. Nor do I understand Viper owners simply ignoring what the data all around them is screaming loud and clear...and that is FEW SPORTS CAR OWNERS ARE IMPRESSED WITH THE GEN 5. But I guarantee you the Hellcat...

    Since a Stock 2015 Hellcat w/ DR's Just ran 10.85 @126 ph in the 1/4 Mile...

    Years back the core values included no nanny-gates like abs, stability control, cruise control, power windows...etc. Now the Gen 5 has as much high tech gadgets as a Porsche (except automatic tranny) and die hard Viper guys are still buying the car and still love the car. I for one don't think...

    Since a Stock 2015 Hellcat w/ DR's Just ran 10.85 @126 ph in the 1/4 Mile...

    Its more complicated than that. This is similar to the Corvette/Buick Gran National dilemma of the mid to late 80's and yes, the Gran National took several potential Vette buyers. Now, some will say the Gran National and the Vette are in a similar class as far as price and exclusivity, but...

    ...and also ran 11.2 with stock tires... See below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYol7m3WjGQ&list=UUsxsyssioAZGzMHGeFxM7lw Then one of two things is just around the corner: 1. The 2015 or 2016 Viper gets another 100 to 150 hp or 2. The Viper will be discontinued The status quo is...

    Challenger Hellcat gets 707HP!

    Now this is WHAT THE F*CK I'M TALKING ABOUT!! Nice to see Dodge and the SRT guys show they got some f*cking balls!! This is BADASS! And I personally believe the 15 Viper WILL definitely have a power increase...they built the car with forged internals and they didn't do that so we could take...
