    11.1@ 127 Pretty strong!

    Not sure what the current owner thinks of it, but hope he's enjoying it. I upgraded to a Lamborghini Gallardo last year, but want to get into a Gen V launch edition at the end of the year. Maybe I'll run 10's in it for $hits and giggles also ;) I have no doubt someone that cares enough to...

    Gen V Hood Vents

    Didn't they say the two forward vents are actually the ones doing the most heat extraction, in one of the SRT Engineering Q&A sessions?

    And so it begins *** DEALER MARKUP***

    For my sake, I hope you are right!! I want an LE really bad, just not $140k bad.

    LE # 144 in my garage...

    Usually Prius owners disrespect the hotrodders. I appreciate the fuel savings they provide, but am a sucker for raw hp. Almost bought a ES300H in December to commute in :)

    LE # 144 in my garage...

    Absolutely gorgeous, thanks for sharing! I had to chuckle when I saw a Prius sharing the garage with the Viper :D

    First Gen V vs Gen V race?

    LOL, I have videos of the car being launched 7 times at the track, posted on this website. That same YouTube channel has videos of the car being street raced, not to mention ALL of the posts that have said I have auto-x'd the car, been to the road course, driven in rush hour traffic, and...

    First Gen V vs Gen V race?

    I guarantee you, NO ONE could drive my car harder than I did, I could care less if they beat on it. I dropped my Viper off several times at the dealership and told the shop foreman to take the car home, to see if he can duplicate the issues. My car was always insured, and under warranty. If...

    First Gen V vs Gen V race?

    Cody Whitehead, who used to own ART in Buda, TX. The new shop is Whitehead Motorsports, and he's got a ton of other cars that he has as projects as well. I believe he also owns 2 UGR TT Gallardo's (race packages). He actually let me sit in his Launch Edition saturday :D Bernie said the car...

    First Gen V vs Gen V race?

    Take it from someone that did a hard break-in on his 08 Viper (and all of his other previous cars) they run the best that way. Mine made 560rwhp stock, ran 10's stock, had almost 48k on the original engine and trans, and ran like a champ never burning oil or having issues. That red SRT will be...

    A few pics of the SRT Viper and Viper GTS at the Texas Invitational

    And the video of the two Vipers going side by side. Very cool of Bernie from Tomball to bring the SRT with track package, to show the differences between the two. Note: Kyle incorrectly calls them 2014 in the title http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTr4ilZSiC8

    First crashed Gen V on public roads?

    Very tragic loss for his family, SRT, and the entire Viper family. Prayers for everyone affected, and may God give them comfort during this time.

    A few pics of the SRT Viper and Viper GTS at the Texas Invitational

    This past weekend, I attended the Texas Invitational in Caddo Mills, TX. The basic premise of the event is to provide an opportunity for owners to stretch out their legs in a safe and controlled environment, on a runway against another opponent. Several of the cars attending make well over...

    Viper racing at PBIR YESTERDAY

    A lot of these track times you see people like Ranger and Jamie Furman putting down, are in great conditions with negative DA. For reference, my stock 2008 went 11.4 @ 121 mph at a private track rental in 90F weather, on street tires. Fast forward to late November on a night with temps at 40F...

    New Steering Wheel Buttons

    The last thing I wanted to do was act like I wasn't very appreciative of y'all's effort. I very much love the '13 Viper, and I for sure wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers (not buy the car for steering wheel buttons). The feasibility issue I can relate to (being an engineer as...

    New Steering Wheel Buttons

    Just the person I was hoping would look here :) I think you can achieve the same result, with the new layout, by raising the edges in the appropriate locations. The arrow placement is more intuitive for going through the menu's on the GC SRT8 as well (although you could train yourself to use...

    New Steering Wheel Buttons

    Yes, I know I'm being nit-picky now, but this was the only thing that bothered me about the new Viper. On my 08 Viper, I always joked about having a radio from my cousin's 2001 Grand Caravan in there (carryover parts from other lesser models). The buttons on this wheel, are from every other...

    First Launch Edition is on the ground at Roanoke!

    I am honestly craving another Blue/White Viper, and want this car so bad. Darn price tag :(

    Watch out for this Blue/White 08 Viper on eBay

    How unfortunate. I contacted Carfax and they updated the car as a total loss, but now it shows on his listing that it isn't?
