    Track suspension settings ACR-X

    If you can get thru to him, Keatings personal mechanic and Viper tech is at Port Lavaca Tx. Dodge. I have met him but cannot remember his name. As you know he won back to back Viper Cup championships in his ACR-X a few years ago and his wrench can give you ALL the info you need.

    WARNING-When replacing oil cooler lines.

    Great post and info. Glad its sorted out now and another reason I personally have my Viper tech do all the work. He breaks it (hardly ever) dealer pays for it.

    Downshift to brake?

    Most posts with good questions like yours on here usually ends in a heated debate unfortunately. Some have the right answers, some do not, and some could care less. I would suggest at least a one day driving school with or without your car to really learn what to do AND a professionals way of...

    Downshift to brake?

    Street vs track is a whole different style for the most part but DONT use the clutch to brake or slow anywhere as it can cause the rear end to come out on you and loose control.

    Can Gen3 Be Charged with Battery Tender Through Cigarette Lighter?

    Best tender by far is the Deltran and simply use the 12v in the console as its hot all the time. Best price for the tender is always on Amazon and they last forever. The 12v connector is an option to buy but cheap !!

    24 hour daytona

    We were there for 4 days in the infield and the weather was near perfect this time. Huge crowd this year and not too many long yellow cautions. Nice to have a sponsor like TI and Farnbacher really showed his stuff on a long last stint to take the win for GTD. Corvette won GTLM but it was close...

    Modded Gen V vs Modded C7Z06...

    VERY nice and compared to some I have seen on here. Guess you guys came from the strip with all that shoe polish. Any real time drag strip numbers if you guys went to the strip?

    Best Dealer in Austin Texas?

    Its worth the drive to go to Tomball Dodge and their Viper tech, Morgan. He is one of the best.

    Gen II motor mounts, trashed..

    This is common and happened to me years ago. Mark at Woodhouse has THE best replacement mounts for engine and tranny.

    Dan Cragin - Best Viper Tech.!!! ... My 2000 Viper with 106,000 miles

    That is another reliability example of the great job Dodge did in the build of the Gen 2 compared to their latest Gen.......Glad to hear it!

    Anyone serious about ordering a 1 of 1 Viper just announced?

    I agree somewhat especially regarding your Gen 2 as they were built very reliable and still are and I truly miss mine. Like an old saying, they don't build em like they used to still exists.

    leaking struts in TA models

    When I bought my brand new 09 Gen 4 ACR it had been sitting at the dealer (Tomball Dodge) nearly a year during the recession and I had only one very minor problem taken care of on delivery. No strut leaks or internal engine problems thank goodness.

    leaking struts in TA models

    Very glad to hear this actually and I am surprised but on the same page. And road racing is the really complete true challenge of which car is the best in performance. My reference to money muscle refers to what I cannot stand about most drag or street racing as it usually comes down to who put...

    leaking struts in TA models

    On a road course or just money muscle vs money muscle? Both are quite impressive on the course.

    leaking struts in TA models

    The original poster also has an air bag recall too or seat position sensor problem I believe. How is that problem coming along?

    leaking struts in TA models

    It amazes me of all the serious problems that many owners are having with their Gen Vs. Engine internals and now this. Hope the 1 of 1 Vipers get some real attention to mechanical areas from the engineers. And I sure hope your dealer has a good tech and can get your shocks replaced asap.

    Anyone serious about ordering a 1 of 1 Viper just announced?

    Tons of options and colors to pick from, and yours will be just that, 1 of 1. No two can be alike. 645 HP. Starting prices look ok. Slow sales bringing this on by Tim K.? Should be some interesting builds for some and know they have 1 of 1.

    New Owner ACR-X

    I totally forgot how far back 2010 was. Bad gin I guess when I responded !! Thanks for the correction and they are a beast to say the least. Keating won the championship twice with one in the old cup series.

    New Owner ACR-X

    They never made an ACR X for 2010, only an ACR. The X,s were all made years ago. Is it an X from years ago or a converted ACR?

    Just had a Great experience with Bernie Katz of Tomball...

    Bought my last 2 Vipers form him and am fortunate Tomball is close by too. He really has the inventory to pick from not to mention a super great tech as well.

    air bag recall

    Ouch, now where are those pesky posts about GM recalls? I would ask someone with the Calif. Viper club or they may respond here. Im sure one of them can lead you to a good dealer tech they use for the warranty work.

    Gen 4 front tow bar warning

    For cars tracked a lot or full race cars the way to go is with a wide tow strap in front. These are very common.

    Rare 1998 Dodge Viper GT2 with only 379 miles for sale

    Viper Exchange had one of these for sale awhile back and they are really awesome. Each one came with a VHS tape that was taken during the assembly and put in the glove box for the first owner. A true collectors car.
