    ARE YOU CLOAKED.Heard it works!

    I've owned 2 "blak box" units that most certainly DID work. Both were active units and the first one @1982 had only 25mph and 55mph presets. The next one @1985 completely jammed X band only. It was stolen and I never went through the tropuble of getting another. It cost @$800 and was very...

    Hey DC...really bogus if true!!!

    Actually Dodge does a very good job sealing the windshield. We had to remove the roof of the car and almost everytime this is done on any GTS, the seal gets damaged because of the good job originally putting it on. Now the seal is torn and an attempt was made to bond it back down but at 140mph...

    Hey DC...really bogus if true!!!

    I was told that the rubber trim/seal around the exterior of the windshield is only available WITH A NEW WINDSHIELD!!! Can anyone confirm this? If so what's the fuzzy logic behind this epic decision?

    01 ACR on rails

    Holy Fu_kin Sh_t!!!...this car handles and brakes well!!! Woodhouse did the set up and lowered it slightly. Then we put in Hawk HT-9 pads and thats all. Yesterday at Pocono it was actually UNDEBRAKING a few of the race cars with the big Brembos. I finally had to simulate a panic brake as hard...

    Neck Brace or Hans Device?

    I did 160 miles FAAAST at Pocono yesterday wearing a HANS for the first time. After the first few laps I forgot it was there. It was excellent and actually helped with fatigue as do the collars. I was most concerned with it getting in the way if I needed to get out and also the potential for...

    Attention track junkies

    Hey Bruce, Do you know which PCA regions are Viper friendly? I understand that most including Metro NY (I've been a member since 1981) do not allow Vipers. I have asked for Vettes and Vipers but no go.

    Best excuses for missing front plate,please!

    I saw a Diablo that had an exact color duplicate of the license plate on a sticker that was on the lower airdam and curved. It was very visable and probable allowed the Fuzz to sleep at night.

    Magic Carpet Ride remix

    Well people...Who is it??? Crystal Method or Fat Boy Slim?. If I had to guess I would go with Crystal because I think I would have heard it more if it was Fatboy. How about emailing me the mp3 or a URL where I could listen to it???..so I can go out and buy some crappy Sketchers instead of a...

    anything better than VALENTINE RADAR?

    Call Barry Smith or Michael Angelo at www.ultrasmith.com and they can answer all your questions. They are NOT cheap but do "PERFECT" work and can custom install anything. As per their site they ship cars around the world but I think the Valentine mirror is all done on premises in NYC. They...

    anything better than VALENTINE RADAR?

    For me the directional and the number of sources helps. Does the Passport count number of sources? I do like the self powered unit that Escort makes and I hope Valentine will consider batteries in the future. Is the Passport plastic or metal? If it's plastic it would have been destroyed...

    Magic Carpet Ride remix

    Anybody have info on the Steppenwolf "Magic Carpet Ride remix" used on the Viper DVD? I heard it on the TV in the other room and dropped everything and ran in hoping to see the Viper commercial but instead I got some lame "Sketchers" (sneakers) spot with the same song. I guess DC's agency...

    anything better than VALENTINE RADAR?

    Yeah, the remote Valentine that Ultrasmith Systems (www.ultrasmithsystems.com) installs that has the display "inside" your speedo, tach or mirror and has the controls hidden somewhere else. They can also steer you towards the jamming systems. I have used 2 different systems over the years and...

    electrical, computer, airbag question?

    I have a friend who installed a Sparco steering wheel on his 01 GTS so the driver's airbag has been removed. He would like to get the "Airbag" light to go off by "teaching" the system to only concentrate on the passenger airbag..if this is possible. He wants to have the passenger airbag work...

    5 Point Harness Question

    You should be concerned about the extra belt length required to go around the seat in a curve instead of straight through and that under extreme forces the seat might compress and the belt might loosen. Maybe it is safe and legal but I wouldn't do it.

    Burning plastic smell?

    It's probably part of the exhaust in the side sills cooking up. You could check the heat shields. I've smelled that for YEARS so I'm used to it. A sweet burning plastic smell. You might even see some smoke or steam if it's raining...spooky!!!

    01 brake components???

    Are the front rotors on an 01 ACR the same as the 96 rotors? Is anyone making a performance pad for the new rear caliper? If not, it's back to Carbotech. They were the first company (that I knew of) making performance pads for the 96 GTS in the fall of 96. They custom make them using the...

    01 ACR Brake ducts.....

    I think I recall Sean Roe saying that if you cut holes in the fog light area that there would actually be negative pressure and would not work for cooling. I'm still waiting for the Mopar Duct Kit and the guy delivering it is named Godot.
