    Snow, Cold, Salt....

    I hear ya Steve. Got my car on the 21st of December, have driven it maybe 3 times since for short trips. Hopefully the summer will bring lots of more opportunities to take it out! -Carlo

    need advise on viper coupes

    And you can continue to be wrong all day. Not talking about dry weights, take a look at the picture posted above, talking about 2006 1LZ cars that weigh 3080 and 2006-2007 2LZ cars that weigh 3130. If you'd like to come over, we can weigh them for you. Again we're splitting hairs, no idea...

    need advise on viper coupes

    2006 1LZ is 3080 lbs. 2006 2LZ jumps to 3130. I'm not incorrect in this regard.

    need advise on viper coupes

    My apologies, if this is the case I can find no documentation on it to verify. The only information I can find is that they increased the HP/TQ by 10 when they produced the Coupe in '06. Guys you're blowing this WAY out of proportion. Look at the statement bolded above. All I was doing...

    need advise on viper coupes

    Ok, I was referring to the 2003-2006 SRT10 Convertibles which were rated at 500. The 505 Cubic Inch motor made 500hp, the LS7's 427 CID made 505. The LS7 does indeed make more power than my 8.3L, regardless it isn't a pissing match or a dick measuring contest just refuting the claim that the...

    need advise on viper coupes

    No problem. I'm a fan of C2s myself but have a little more experience with C6Zs.... Just a couple hanging out.... As far as low 11s bone stock with stock tires, they've actually gone 10s as well. Bone stock on stock tires: 1~~~~ 10.981 128.90 1.77 Jamie Furman~ 2006 details~~...

    need advise on viper coupes

    This post is quite wrong. The Fastest Lap time you posted is for a base model Z51 car, not a Z06. The Z06 has gone consistent low 11s in stock form and some have cracked 10s with just a tire. The 2009 Z06 is no faster than the 2008,2007 or 2006 Z06. You're just making stuff up at this...

    HELP NEEDED Polishing Intake

    That looks great! Keep it up, very inspired to do something similar (Or send it out to get done!) -Carlo

    C6z06 Or 06 Srt10 Coupe????

    Yea. My record is perfect and the last time I was given a ticket was three years ago for 50 in a 45. I still contend I was not speeding, heck I was in the right lane behind a bus! If you don't have a clean record, I'd suggest getting a quote first. I'm coming from a 1000+hp car, and the Viper...

    C6z06 Or 06 Srt10 Coupe????

    Insurance is much cheaper than anticipated. It is only a few dollars more a month than my '03 Cobra with the same deductibles (500). About 90/month and I'm under 25. Results will obviously vary, my record is clean and there are a lot of discounts applied.

    C6z06 Or 06 Srt10 Coupe????

    Just made this decision, although it was for any SRT10 vs. the Z; I actually was more apt to get the vert. The Z is the better handling, higher power, faster car. It's cheaper to go fast with and has more creature comforts and interior room. It is a pretty common car, it's appearances are...

    Anyone need some five spokes

    Very nice setup. I've been debating it but I've spent too much on toys in the past few months. Great price, good luck with the sale!

    ***just Converted My Convert To A Coupe***

    Agreed. What all was involved in that conversion?

    Sunday Drive

    Don't see a PM. I might be too new to receive them? Anyhow, Crossroads is great; I haven't been there in years. The weather isn't too spectacular just yet, but hopefully once the weather breaks we can get a few cars together.

    Cordless Impact Guns

    I have only used the Snapon. Have it in 1/2", 3/8" and 1/4". The smaller drives are invaluable for working around the shop and the 1/2" drive is perfect for track duty. My experience with Dewalt has always been positive too. We use their drills and hammer drills at work.

    Sunday Drive

    That'd be a lot of fun. I'm a UD graduate and work just outside Pike Creek. We should try and coordinate a Sunday Morning Cars&Coffee type meet.

    Let me know if you want to bring it out sometime with another one... I'm down 202 on the DE side.

    Viper TT Mutation

    You're very proud of that aren't you? Clearly your knowledge of tracks isn't all that well after our last discussion. Ever heard of MIR? Atco? PBIR? Head down to MIR at the World Cup, Atco on a private rental or a N/T... I'm about as impressed with your track ownership as I am with your...

    Drag racing a convertible Gen III

    East Coast tracks, Mid-Atlantic region, more than one. I live in Northern Delaware. Have also seen it happen in the Southeast as well. I'm not going to discuss which tracks in particular, but there have been multiple vehicles at multiple tracks. And yes, 140s is not in the 12s LOL. If...

    Drag racing a convertible Gen III

    That is not true regarding NHRA vs IHRA. Sanctioning of the track, while it does tell which rulebook the track SHOULD follow, in practice tracks differ depending upon management and who is working them. I've run 140+ mph passes at NHRA tracks with no comment on public days before. It's...

    Drag racing a convertible Gen III

    Completely dependent upon your local track and when you go. I have no problem passing tech at a private rental at a particular track, but I know I'm only afforded one run at a different track on a public day.

    2005 Viper

    I think some are a bit hopeful on price. The market is awful right now. I picked up a Red '05 stock SRT-10 with 9100 miles on it for 43.5. Clean Carfax, Clean Autocheck, Clean dealer VIN check, 2 previous owners (One had it for 1700 miles). If you follow eBay auctions, normally they have a...
