    Pics from Viper Days at VIR

    The real question is, How many times did Bernie see the track 360 Degrees :drive: LOL. Bernie, I believe, rented a Port Lavaca Comp Coupe and ran in the VRL race. I saw a few spins out there, but not sure who the driver was....so yeah, he was out there havin some fun. Awesome pics btw - you...

    Viper Days with an 08 ACR

    Hey SoCal, we could be related...or at least wear the same race suit :) FYI - Ralph (first place winner and ACR pilot) is far right. The flag girl holding the trophy is my daughter. The other flag girl is Skip.

    Viper Days with an 08 ACR

    Ralph turned a 2:04, I turned a 2:06. Ralph's ACR was on Pilot Cups. I was on Hoosiers. Nuff said. I am in love.

    Viper Days with an 08 ACR

    Just got back from the Viper Days event at Virginia International Raceway. Was a rather hot and humid affair, with temps at 92 on Friday through Sunday. I brought my 96 GTS that I normally would run with the VRL guys, but had my entire family there so I decided to put my passenger seat in and...

    2008 Viper Dyno Test 542rwhp

    Dan, little off-topic, but do you think a TR-6060 can be retrofitted into a GTS?

    Complete wheel hub/bearing failure

    Thanks - interesting info for you Ken: My car is one of the original Arizon Desert Racing cars built for the VRL waaaay back. It has the Ted Marsh/Coleman Racing hubs on it. Apparently, there were some spindle failures on this combo, but rare. All the cars Ted knew about came out of Phoenix...

    Complete wheel hub/bearing failure

    Dan, Thanks for the reply - They were checked by Tom when he had my car for the heads/bottom end work last month, and there didnt seem to be any play in the wheels this weekend either. My front hubs I believe are the "VRL style" as you mentioned, or I think they called them the Whelen quick...

    Complete wheel hub/bearing failure

    No sh1t. Passenger front came off completely in turn 10 at VIR. Thank god I was going straight when it let go. Only thing holding the wheel on was the rotor wedged between the caliper. Didnt know the wheel hub was separated from the car until I got to pits on my own power. I thought I just blew...

    Alans 2 Core > Fluidyne radiator?

    Before I go out and get a replacement to the fluidyne, I am going to remove it and blow out any particles lodged in the cooling fins. REDSLED recommended a solution that works for him that I am going to try - I went out and bought sheets of aluminum and will construct a "box" that blocks off...

    08 VIPER/ACR in NASA?

    I ran in a TTU event last year with NASA. It aint racing per se, but very close in that passing is allowed anywhere. Its fun. White group should be like that in the Challenge series. NASA has got the right formula - power to weight. Simple. No 600 page rulebook. Dont get me wrong they have rules...

    Alans 2 Core > Fluidyne radiator?

    >>> I looked at that, but how does this work (or can it) with an autoform race fascia and a splitter that covers the entire front underside back to the frame recall plates? Any Alan's users that roadrace?

    Alans 2 Core > Fluidyne radiator?

    I have been running over 240 degrees on the roadcourse after upgrading to the Stryker heads. I have always run a Fluidyne, and with the prior motor config it would run 230-235. I was wondering if there is anyone out there that has upgraded to the Strykers and found heat an issue. Not street...

    06 SRT Transmission in an RT/10 ?

    What would be nice is to engineer the new TR-6060 transmission in the 2008's into the gen 2....stronger, better gearing and triple cone synchros...

    Hennessey 2008 ACR in One Lap of America ..... looking good !!!!

    Is it mathematically possible for the Viper to win still? The wet skidpad (42nd place) pretty much doomed it, unless there were some significant mechanical DNF's coming up (and I know that is entirely possible in onelap)... I cant wait to see it run against the Nissan GTR at VIR this thursday...

    Hennessey 2008 ACR in One Lap of America ..... looking good !!!!

    Wish they would call it the Winkler/Jones 2008 ACR. Having H's name on the entry makes me almost not want to root for the Dodge.
