    Busted for no Front Plate

    I met the owner of Taj-Mah-garage a few months ago. The guy dedicated a building in Downtown Dayton to his Porsche collection and memorabilia. I was looking for the pic I took of one of his wife's white Cayman. It has a Vinyl graphic of the Ohio plate stuck on the front of the car. A local...

    3:73 gears are you happy with them.

    rpm calculator Sorry to play virtual driver, it's all I can do at the moment. I understand the idea in this top end power. With 3.07s, 345/25-20 tire, 2000 rpm 6th=100mph, 5th=70mph. I suppose to maximize fuel economny at just under 1500rpm 6th=75mph but it'd begging to downshift I...

    Who are the youngest people here to own a viper

    I've said that before, it's possible. Not my Viper, but I've owned one of my cars since I was 21. Just bought my first Viper at 32.

    3:73 gears are you happy with them.

    What would be negative about swapping 3.55 or 3.73s on a Paxton car? My 66 Mustang, I run a Vortech supercharged 408, 04 Viper T56, with 3.73s, and 285/30-19 tires. (Let the flogging begin.) I haven't driven my Viper yet (probably my disconnect here), but was already planning a few mods...

    How many of you carry a fire extinguisher? Saw a brutual car fire today :(

    I have a small kitchen extinguisher I swap between my project cars. I also take it when going on long road trips. A few years ago I lost control of my 65 Mustang and hit the center divide on the highway. The fenders pinch my doors shut and smoke started building up fron under my hood. I...

    Hot Rod Mini Power Tour

    I was 4 days in on Power Tour 2007 before I blew up my engine near Chicago. I've wanted to do another one for years but have been away from home a lot during that first week in June. I won't make it this year but am planning for 2012.

    Traveling from East to West

    Awesome idea. I want to make a similar trip when I get back. I have plans to drive from Ohio to Monterey, CA via I-40, then south on U.S.1 to LA. From there east on I-10 to Pensacola, FL. North to NY then back home.

    First Viper, thanks to AbsolutHank

    Haha, it's about as safe as any other storage facility in Miamisburg/Centerville, Ohio, if you want to look for it I got my girl insured. I've kept my Barracuda in/out of a storage unit since 2007, never had any issues even with a unit that faces a busy road. After I get home the Mustang comes...

    New Kid here

    There are pros and cons for any job. You are going to have to do your reseach for what YOU want. I didn't know what I wanted to do after HS so I did some odd jobs for a couple years then joined the Air Force. 10 years, separated as an E-5 with an associates degree. I volunteered for...

    First Viper, thanks to AbsolutHank

    As soon as I get home I'm putting about 300 miles on the car the first day. I will probably hit Cinnci and C-bus that day. I'll look you up. Hank was kind enough to personally deliver the car to Dayton for me today. This "first Viper" experience has spread over two months and will last a...

    Wrecked Viper website

    I spent two days going through all the Viper photos about 2 weeks ago. I also spent a few days searching for common reasons for Viper crashes. I haven't driven mine yet and I want to prepare myself to be a better driver before I get behind the wheel. I don't want to be that guy who crashes...

    header dent

    Did you see how small that dent was? It's pretty much cosmetic. It's not pinched off.
