    Little experience with manuals. Learning in a Viper.h

    I will let the owners handle the meat of your question but re-learning stick in a car with 640hp/600tq is hilarious especially with your only experience with a stick is Renault and an MGT. It can be done though as I learned stick with the first sporty car I bought at 23. Drove it off the lot...

    Attempting to get my Viper into SEMA

    Car looks great. I wish you the best. I tried to help you out with the vote but it did not send me an email. I tried several times so i guess maybe its a wrap on the voting lol.

    how have the sales been since price drop?

    Great to hear they are moving now. I guess it just took some time for the price drop news to spread out to the masses.

    Possible 2016 Supercharged

    After all the recent press about a supercharger option, real or fake, it will be a big letdown to both Viper nation and prospective buyers if there is none.

    Ogm guys gts-r can?

    Great news. Sadly I missed the race. I will have to watch it on Youtube. Here's to hoping they bring home the championship. Great season regardless of outcome.

    Hellcat Dynod at 825

    Dodge did excellent with this car from top to bottom. Some things that stood out to me besides the ridiculous power were the braking and the ride height. He halted from 60-0 in 109ft. Just a few years ago that would have been top echelon sports car numbers. Its even more incredible...

    Production Car Lap Records

    Interesting. I did not know it had records other than Laguna. Nice. I think the TA should get to that 1:55 of the ZR1 but nice to see the SRT model knock off a 1:57 which according to the vid and Allan is very fast for a bone stocker. Maybe Dodge will do with the TA 2.0 what they did with...

    Information from Chrysler on 2015 Viper

    If the 2.0 has ACR levels of downforce along with Trofeos then I would think there probably wont be an ACR and that the TA has replaced the ACR moniker/duty. I read a post here that stated that the TA 2.0 is the car they will take to the Ring. That duty used to be the ACR models so your...

    SC and Vert for 2016 rumors

    Agreed. Since you mentioned about the very few cars in the world over 700lb ft from the factory I searched the web and found this list of top 100 most powerful cars in the world. Its ranking them by hp but torque figures are in there for most of the cars. Not surprising most of the normal to...

    SC and Vert for 2016 rumors

    Never gonna happen from any sane car guy lol....But I have already heard, "thats all they could get with charger from 8.4ltr? Pathetic", from a car buddy of mine lol. He is more of an import enthusiast obviously and more into hp/ltr sillyness. Seriously though Im eagerly awaiting to see how...

    Holy crap...Dodge just announced great incentives to spur sales

    Re: Holy crap...Dodge just hit the panic button on the Viper. I'm not surprised but it would have been nice to see the Viper get better treatment that just being sold by any given Dodge dealer but I guess thats what the whole SRT attempt was about. Nice idea they just had no clue how to...

    Another incredible Bruce video

    Great vid Bruce...Nice to see these two track killers going at it regardless of mfg...I love both cars but there is no question which one is the top dog in track times between the two all things being equal.

    2014 C&D VIR Lightning Lap Results...Viper TA delivers!

    Outstanding. Nissan got deadly serious by offering the N package factory built. If you are a car guy you just have to love this. Dodge will need an ACR to handle the N package period. One can only hope for a G5 ACR in the near future. On another note I look forward to seeing how Chevy's...

    2014 C&D VIR Lightning Lap Results...Viper TA delivers!

    I see....I did not realize there were two packages...Very nice. If the slower one took out the TA then I dont want to know what the N package will do to it lol. I dont think the TA 2.0 will handle the N package either so I think that distinction will have to go to hopefully a G5 ACR. It is...

    Information from Chrysler on 2015 Viper

    My post was definitely a lot of oversimplification on how to correct the problem I will give you that. Much of what you said I concur with and have said in past posts so I am well aware of the 4 points you mentioned but at this point we all are really rehashing the same points over and over...

    2014 C&D VIR Lightning Lap Results...Viper TA delivers!

    It was 2:48 if memory serves. I am not surprised the Nismo beat the TA but I was surprised the Camaro was so close to both the GTR and TA even with its Trofeo R's on a track like VIR. On a tighter shorter track it would probably be right there with both of them. The TA did well considering...

    Information from Chrysler on 2015 Viper

    What do some of you owners want? For all of us to just pretend the G5 is NOT a sales failure because the target demographic and most of its own niche do not think its enough car for them to open up THEIR wallets? When you bring out a product and the masses don't think it is as great as you...

    Information from Chrysler on 2015 Viper

    I know what you are saying but no one looks at the Z06 or the Viper on the level as the 911 or 458 except a small niche in the market that value performance above the Euro flair. So yes the Z06 will be a problem for the Viper and not for the high-end marques because they are both looked at by...

    Information from Chrysler on 2015 Viper

    Agreed. They are in a tough situation though with all those unsold units as you mentioned. So do they try to salvage the cars image with more powerful variants/vert asap and chance the masses long memory of what transpired or do they go on hiatus and hope Fiat oks the snakes return in the...

    Who else has been following our guys in the TUDOR Series this year?

    I've been following them too. They really have a chance In GTLM. The year has really turned out great for them win or lose.

    CAAP: When does it come back online to begin producing 2015s?

    Context. This is the first Gen Viper that I can remember that was given the mandate to sell or else. It is also the first gen Viper that was marketed to a demographic outside its niche. So those two things are a few of the reasons you hear all this talk about the Viper selling or not selling...
