    My SRT-10 Model Arrived Yesterday!

    Was this the 1/18 from Ertl. If so mine had the Gen 2 motor in it and was referred to as the 2nd generation viper on the box. Poor effort. Got mine from Tower Hobbies.

    Hennessey Says No To Trespassing Video

    Geez, if the video was left lying around and got picked up by someone who gave it to somebody who dropped it somewhere and was found by anyone who happened to be able put something on the net how you could you be responsible for anything?

    2 people die in Viper in Audi Uphill race

    "The event is sanctioned by the Nevada Department of Transportation." I hate it when a paper publishes a line like that. Those of us who do high speed events realize the risk, and accept the responsibility. Dont gig the DOT for giving us opportunities (and the activists ammunition).

    SRT 1/18

    Ahh, a satisfying drive. It is funny how you notice things you never really noticed before. I think the big miss for me on the model of the SRT is the muscular look of the front and hood. The rise of my RT/10's hood suggests power, the curving lateral bulges suggest a road ready stance and...

    SRT 1/18

    My Ertl 1/18 SRT10 arrived yesterday. I must say if the representation is accurate the car is not as striking as my 1/18 RT/10's. The convertable top is a much desired add, and the wheels are very complemetary on the car. Having never seen the show car in person this is my first 3 dimensional...

    small hole in soft top ??

    Same problem here, wear through where hinge rivets are. My dealer said trim item, therefore not covered. Were these replacements dealer courtesy or true warranty?

    360 MODENA SMOKES VIPERS

    Ditto, a coworker of mine has a '99 360 he bought used for $152,000. The three or four times we have played my '00 Creampuff GTS has handed the 360 its head, for 1/2 the cost. Agreed that with a head of steam any car will be tough too catch, but given equal starts the modena is outgunned.

    My window channel broke

    Ditto to Gerald. My passenger side strip froze to the window at the Mid-Ohio viperdays event and came loose when I rolled the window down. The little plastic "tits" are for alignmnent. The OEM attachment was some sort of adhesive. I took it to my dealer and they offered to order the piece...

    Track Events & Insurance Claims: Lessons Learned in my Trial (LONG)

    My .02 cents. As an ED physician I get the displeasure of seeing victims of traffic accidents all the time. Funny thing is, in 10 years I can recall no patients who were drivers of sports cars with track or autocross experience. In fact, I dont think I have seen any sports car drivers at all...

    Recall 999-dublin dodge

    Toddt, just curious. Had you replied you do Viper Days to your dealers question about "racing" what do you think his answer would have been. This recall is virtually tailored to the car used on the track, even worded that way. My dealer and tech are fully aware I autocross and have started...

    Lets Get Real , DC do something now,, No More IGNORANCE

    I started in the Late 80's with 5.0 LX's, and it looks like I am coming full circle. It sounds like the rumors of cheap aftermarket changes to bring the 03 Cobra to 500 H.P. are true. The SRT has the H.P. to weight advantage, but lighten the Cobra hardtop and look out. I bought my 01 Cobra...

    Lets Get Real , DC do something now,, No More IGNORANCE

    Like most cases, the insurance industry will probably end up being the limiting factor. What company will insure an OEM 700 hp sports car. hmmm, maybe my Viper needs a bumper sticker that reads "My other car is a 03 SVT Cobra"

    Wings

    As I contemplate staying superstock or moving on I come to the question of my rear wing. I currently have the autoform rear wing on my GTS. At what speed is it truly effective. With one point to play with I can keep the wing, or pull it and add 12" rims and 315's up front. At Mid-Ohio I was...

    Eagle PAD-6000W

    Any one knowledgable on the Eagle PAD-6000W Low Rise Lift. I am looking for one to do wheel changes, brake work etc. At only $1349 it looks like a good deal, but will it hit the proper points on a Viper to lift without damage?

    You get your WISH $3200.00 Supercharger

    I used to have a 1993 Z07 Corvette that had a Vortech Kit. The car had 17,000 miles when I did the install, 3 days, not too bad. I sold the car to a friend in 1998, he still has it. Last year at the Corvette Museum Labor Day Festival we dyno'ed the car, 64,000 miles at the time. The dyno...
