    Are people "dumping" their Vipers. What will happen to resale

    the viper is such a "toy" vs. daily transportation it resales like a recreational vehicle as it is a luxury item. most original owners had fairly deep pockets and when the thrill wore off the cars, they were dumped onto used market and depreciated as american made cars do. this is particularly...

    Ever notice that Viper owners also own a Vette as well..

    i believe it! 67 big block with sidepipes, bolt ons, black stinger...... stunning. Same for the Viper coupe with stripes. Two massive horse power american classics decades apart but still look as good as they day the were designed! Like i said before, the Viper took over where the...

    Did Anyone Catch the Viper on TOP GEAR last night!

    it is no secret that the Viper is violent. Spinning the tires was a rookie mistake at the start line. Fact is the Viper is just damn fast. At the track, on the street, at the 'ring, etc.... And priced right too! It is hard to beat it.

    Ever notice that Viper owners also own a Vette as well..

    lets face it, the 1992+ Vipers are almost like the 1965-1974 corvette big block era. Colors, options, shapes, massive HP, side pipes, bare minimums etc...... all the same exciting stuff. The Viper took over where the corvette of the 60's left off..... i own a 63' Sting Ray, and a 05 Viper...

    Pic of the Viper Ralph will be driving at Targa Newfoundland!

    Entry fee: $3000.00 for touring class. no roll cage needed. $5000.00 for targa class. full cage required. You are right about our recent premier. his first viper was a red 1993, it sold and then bought the white with blue stripe 1996 RT/10. He still has the 1996 and also has a white with...

    New Member -- Deciding Between c6 Z06 or Gen III Coupe

    Viper is the better buy..... Z06 is a great daily driver and looks to be the best vette built this past decade, but lets face it, the Viper is what the vette should have been. Chevrolet's left the corvette behind in 1967.... maybe 69-72.... and the Viper now carries the torch....

    My New 2013 Viper!

    I think before you consider my claims to be false you need to reconsider the following. In the 24Hr race they use the F1 GP circuit as well in addition to the 'Ring, so the lap times are even longer. It is known that these times (for the porsche anyhow) is consistently 1:40-1:50 longer...

    My New 2013 Viper!

    You are correct, Walter never made it to race day. He did all the testing however. The car was still raced none the less with plenty of data recorded. If you dont think the GT2RS 7:18 time is possible nor a 2010RS on slicks running 7:11-7:21 then i guess you dont follow this type of motorsport...

    My New 2013 Viper!

    the 7.18 run was not complete, however @ less than 3200 pounds and over 600hp it is very accurate. Bare in mind CUP cars are running as low a 6:40 with 2800 pound and 450HP. It is not hard to calculate approx times capable of most autos if you know the data from various race tracks...

    My New 2013 Viper!

    Check out the last 24H race of the 'Ring 2010. 2010 RS drove to the track, raced, placed, and drove back to the factory. I can dig up track test data and results prior to that race and camparos as it is not disputed. I also know that the 2010RS is typically 20 seconds off a porsche cup...

    My New 2013 Viper!

    I have seen GT3's out dance vipers on technical sections of tracks only to be blown away (big time) by the vipers on the straights (like really big time), that being said bone stock 2010 GT3RS with slicks are running 7:11-7:22's on the 'Ring all day long. That is 2010 ACR territory last time i...

    My New 2013 Viper!

    Correct, the 2010 ACR has better gearing (finally) and would perform a better lap time as result. Probably match the GT2RS time of 7.18.

    My New 2013 Viper!

    PRI in orlando florida this year. I guess i could be wrong. They are only Dodge employees and dealers, Ralph Gilles etc.......... :rolleyes: Based on what im hearing, one can expect some injection from Fiat make no doubt about it. But to what extent is the question? Im definitely not a...

    My New 2013 Viper!

    the production ACR is a demon on the straights but can be better in the twisties. The 'Ring has a lot of high speed sections and for that it is the king of the 'Ring. The Viper platform can be better most certainly. And lighter too.

    My New 2013 Viper!

    for street legal vipers fresh from the dealership and onto a track it would be nice for them them to be a little more engineered to run in the twistys with that of the porsche GT3s for example. something 2900-3000 pounds, balanced and easily aligned for track would be nice.

    My New 2013 Viper!

    ESC or not, the 2013 Viper will have to be approx 3000 pounds with as close to 50/50 weight distribution as possible not to mention easier trackable alignment adjustments to have a chance in competing with the over crowded market. with ferrari design being introduced i feel this can be...

    Viper 2012 ?

    word on the street has it that the new viper will be based on the ferrari 599 platform, that or it will take direct engineering from that source. remember, Fiat wishes for their investment in chrysler to be solid and by holding no stops this is a step in right direction for them. Go big or go...
