    Paint Protection Film Recommendations and Prices

    Can you tell us more about the Clear Plex for the windshield? Can you use it on a daily driver, do the windshield wipers scratch it, etc. Love to put it on the wife's new car since it has an expensive heated windshield and would like to protect it from stone chips and pitting. To PeerBlock...

    redlined bad now not running right

    I had not seen that, that is too bad. Hopefully he sees this thread, even though we had a lot of entertaining posts with him, he did seem like a very nice guy and I hope he starts to post up here if nothing else to say hi and know that we are thinking of him. I just got back from a vacation in...

    SRT: Please Pay Attention

    Good luck in the Marines, you'll do fine. Just like anything else, the mental aspect is the toughest. My motto is "Admit to nothing, deny everything and make counter accusations".....by the time they figure you out, you'll be done and out of basic. Cheers, George

    Cost to make SRT into ACR

    Thanks. I didn't look like the ACR or ACR copies, actually more pleasing to the eye. Cheers, George

    SRT: Please Pay Attention

    I want the same thing you fight for.....freedom. (I'm assuming you're still in the Marines):usa::usa::usa::usa: Even at this price level, people buy the vehicle for many reasons. Some keep it stock, some want to modify. Not being able to modify a Gen 4/5 via computer upgrades hurts our resale...

    My Amazing Gen 5 Viper Adventure!

    Favorite color choice and with no stripe!! :2tu: Enjoy it, that is an epic looking car. In the picture of the motor on the stand, does it appear that the PCV valve is now at the top and center of the valve cover on the passenger side? Cheers, George

    Chambersburg, PA Crash

    How many times have we seen a professional Nascar driver lose it on the track and still save it?.....very rare. They're in a car built for racing, on full slicks, good surface and with tons of driver talent behind the wheel. Yet if they lose it very often it ends up in a wreck. With the...

    Anyone want to buy a Gen V from a dealership that still calls it a Dodge?

    That's the dealership that sold me my Viper. In 2009 they seemed like a decent crew....haven't been back to see them since. I discussed the car with them on the phone early Friday evening, liked the starting price and told them I'd fly in the next morning to negotiate to purchase of the car...

    More Sexy Viper footage...

    Was there with a friend in his white and blue stripe Ford GT. I was leaving on vacation the next day and didn't feel like detailing and cleaning the Viper after the long drive. We took off a little early from the event to go to Alice's Restaurant and meet up with some other friends for...

    Did The McLaren P1 Just Obliterate The Lap Record At The Nurburgring?

    That would be a fantastic feature since you can dial in roll stiffness, brake dive, aero percentages, etc based on each corner. We make all sorts of vehicle changes now (spring rates, shock settings, anti roll bar size, and so on) but we have to live with it for the entire track. Many race cars...

    More Sexy Viper footage...

    I was there that day and saw the car pull in. Very nice looking car. Do you have to "join" the system to be allowed rent the cars? Cheers, George

    How many RPM in 3rd gear at 50mph?

    3.07 = 2500 rpm 3.55 = 2850 rpm Member 345sbspinning posted a very good spreadsheet with very ratio, gear and speed you could want. Good luck, George

    SRT: Please Pay Attention

    Wow, so this may be the first generation Viper to fail from a sales and marketing standpoint because it could not be modded...... So lets document this now so 10 years from today we can be watching one of those television car show documentaries or a broadcaster at a Barrett Jackson auction...

    SRT: Please Pay Attention

    Exactly....apparently our parent company has no problem with the liability issue since Fiat, Ferrari and Maserati's are sold here and are tune-able. SRT may not technically own the rights to the code (as I brought up in other threads) but we'll never know because they won't discuss this. All...

    Gen 4 intake manifold removal

    Call Toddy at BBG. He can not only walk you through it but also has ported manifolds to either sell or swap with yours. You will feel the power increase with the ported manifold (I have BBG's), the car is also more rev happy. Makes a difference on the track for sure. Cheers, George

    TRANZILLA vs TR6060 for replacement T56

    You bring up a good point about gearing and here is what I have found.....let me now your thoughts. On most tracks the Gen 3/4 will be faster time wise with a 3.07 and the stock 1-4 ratio's on an open track with no traffic since you can do most tracks in 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear (usually just 3rd...

    Did The McLaren P1 Just Obliterate The Lap Record At The Nurburgring?

    All manufacturers have simulation programs (including SRT) that will tell them what their vehicle should run at the Ring. A 6:33 really does sound a little too fast on street or R-compound tires, but I'm guessing McLaren knows what the car will run within 10 seconds of the actual time and never...

    It's getting harder to maintain my enthusiasm...

    For those waiting don't cancel....10 years from now you'll be kicking yourselves. I still think the car is worth the wait...even though we all know it could have been handled better. Hopefully they don't come out with an ACR otherwise I might just have to get on the list too :usa::usa...

    GeigerCars importing GEN V to Europe.

    One of our clients makes a very good living exporting USA made muscle to Europe....sorry you're wrong. The Viper will be like the H1 Hummer in Europe...if you drive it you will be a rock star. It is rare, fast, raw and beautiful. Park it next to just about any Ferrari at a restaurant and the...

    Carbon ceramic brakes for the Gen V

    Not sure what the cost of the ACR-X rotors are, but it sounds like you're 50% to the cost option of the CCB for the Vettes. I didn't even thing about the long term life of these things, that's impressive. A friend retro fitted his Ford GT with ZR1 ceramic brake rotors and loves it. Sounds...
