    2005 Coupe at Detroit Autoshow

    The new coupe needs to get lighter before it gets more HP. Sure, in a straight line the 600 ponies may help it edge the Z06, but the extra "pork" on the current design will make it noticibly more difficult to toss around a road course. Simple laws of physics tell you the momentum of a 3400#...

    OH MY GOD! The new coupe is a WOW!

    We are seeing Lutz doing what he does best. I will not dispense of my current Vipers, I just don't see adding the new Viper hardtop when the Z06 will give me so much more track ability. Looks like I'll be joining the Vette ranks at ViperDays. Time for Skip to change the name from ViperDays to...

    More new Viper Coupe Pics

    Jamie, I dont think the Viper will lose its street appeal. You cant use 450hp on the street let alone 500hp. I think the new coupe is much better looking than the Z06, but looks wont help on the track. The SRT-10 in my opinion is the best looking and performing vert. When it comes time to...

    The Horsepower Wars are OVER!

    FAST FREDDY. I am not sure the "knowing how to drive" point is all together accurate. Using that position indicates none of the pros in F1, etc know how to drive. The AE in the Vette allows a driver to have a bit more confidence when pushing the limits. It may also even help a "knowledgeable...

    More new Viper Coupe Pics

    Sad to say but the new coupe makes no sense for track rats. Compared to the new Z06 it is heavier, more costly, and most likely offers less performance capability unless modded. Any counterpoints are welcome.

    The Horsepower Wars are OVER!

    Agreed, HP is near max usable. Time for an aluminum frame and CF body panels. Lighten the new GTS up and it will be more responsive and better handling.

    I never thought I would say this,

    The price "ack, gag" is not really the issue. To quote an old phrase, make it faster, stonger, (lighter). If the price is equal and the engines stay the same I would go for the Viper. I would get the Z06 if the Viper is 10 grand more unless the Viper gets lighter and more power. I know we...

    So how does this guy make and sell a copyrighted Dodge logo?

    I never thought I would say this,

    madman, how many times have you driven a Z06 or even a vette hard on track. The old Z06 was no slouch. With 500 hp the old Z06 would match our Vipers step for step. I see no reason for the new one to lower the bar. So OMG... get lost... or get some experience with both cars in a performance...

    I never thought I would say this,

    ...but it looks like the Viper may have an equal or better in the C6 Z06. Remembering how my 02 Z06 felt around Mid Ohio compared to my 00GTS I can only speculate the new Z is going to be quite a challenge to outdo. I am particularly impressed with the aluminum and magnesium frame. I really...

    NEWS FLASH AUTOWEEK CONFIRMS Z06 500HP 0-60 3.5 SEC

    I have to agree with Hofstetter. I had an 02 Z06 prior to my SRT10. I did a meticulous engine break-in and had 5k on the motor before taking it to Mid-Ohio. I had about 1200 miles experience on Mid-Ohio with my GTS so I felt I was smooth and would not "hurt" the Z. After the day was over and...

    SRT10 with V8 ?

    I just dont get it. I buy VIPER because of its aggressive styling and performance envelope. I could not care less if it had a V10 or V8 as long as it has the power to make it what the VIPER stands for. In all honesty a big block HEMI V8 would probably sound a helluva lot better than our...

    2005 Viper Days Schedule!!

    I am looking forward to attending a full season for once. I will again be set up to do graphics work at the track with 60% of revenue going to Skip to support Viper Days. I have added a Roland VersaCAMM to my arsenal so I can now do Wraps and other Print and Cut graphics.

    Any body blown a hydrolock or am I the first?

    Re: tow Hmm, the 3.55 in my 04 went south while I was at VOI8. It did not lock fortunately. I noticed a speed related scraping sound from the rear and took it to a tech. The rear had maybe 2000 miles on it and two fluid changes. When we took out the fill plug the fluid looked like metallic...

    Ambassador Certificate....What's the point?

    Re: Ambassador Certificate....What\'s the point? I was unaware the dealer could refuse the cert. I just picked up my black MAGNUM RT AWD and used my cert at my local dealer. AWESOME car. I will post pics after I have my tribal graphics applied.

    Need Bracket Pics

    I am working on Aero for my 00 GTS for Viperdays 2005. I need some pics of the brackets used to anchor the front splitter cables to the car. Under body pics of the frame mounting points for the splitter itself would be appreciated too.

    Looks like I will be getting a fiberglass hood for my track use and put the OEM piece in storage.

    NEW VIPER COUPE

    Toby, do your photoshop magic and get rid of the double bubble and rear deck spoiler. Do not lengthen the rear deck or change the ground clearance. See if these two mods get the car more in line with the CC.

    SRT-10 Trailer Hitch???

    Contact PVO/SRT. They had the car at Viperdays (Gingerman). The hitch looked very good.
