    I think Don527 hit the nail on the head - I agree with his perspective.

    Hemp Plants & Viable Options

    Guilty as charged - I have a black C6 corvette - yes its a manual - I have been debating for a while the purchase of a Viper - and I work for the profitable subsidiary of GM which today was downgraded to junk bond status (like Ford) by S&P - and yes a negative outlook as well - that being...

    Road Tunes

    Ah, now are we talking Ibanez JEMs, Charvels, or the RICH guitars (old Joe Perry circa late 70s early 80s) - was more of a Tube Screamer guy then the RAT stomp boxes - how about an old Ibanez Phase Shifter or Flanger stomp box through the Tube Screamer - great stuff - or perhaps the old Fender...

    Road Tunes

    Are we talking Gibson Les Paul Standard/Custom music, Charvel (heavy stuff), or Fender Strat/Tele kinda stuff? Nothing like Motley Crue and "Wild Side" to get the blood pumping as you row-thru gears at high RPMs!

    Viper tech

    Does anyone know a good viper tech in the phila Pa area? If not, what skills must a mechanic possess to work on these cars? Not to modify them but to do basic mechanical things - oil changes, brakes, sparks, etc. Thanks

    Question - RT/10, GTS or ACR

    I was struggling with a decision to go from Vettes (own/owned 5 of them including new C6) to an 05 SRT 10. However I decided to keep the C6 Vette and add a Viper - when thinking through this I thought if I am going to add a Viper its going to be a classic looking Snake not the SRT 10 (no...

    05 ZO6 - ?

    It comes down to looks -- the Viper vs the Z. The Viper SRT 10 is a more exotic looking car clearly but the Z isnt that bad and nicer in appearance to the base C6. Turn off active handling and traction control and there you go. There is however about a 50lb difference in torque between the 2...

    05 ZO6 - ?

    Man,..cant we all get along? The SRT 10 is here today and a great car (like all the Vipers). The new Z06 is going to be a great car as well. By year end we will start getting a feel (because the production Z will be available) in terms of how the cars compete on the race track. On the street...

    05 ZO6 - ?

    Best in Show 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 The pre-show hubbub played out like a prime-time soap opera (minus the catfight in a fountain), with the scene an Internet rife with leaked photos and rumored power figures, while the specter of goon squads and lawsuits provided the subplot. Yet all the...

    Runflat Replacements

    There have been many posts about tires and Viper performance. Within these posts varying replies regarding replacements for the runflats that come with the SRT 10s. Can someone who has actually replaced their tires advise brand, store and how the car performed comparatively after the runflats...

    Loss Of Control, Accidents

    I completely agree with these last posts completely HOWEVER it still boggles my mind that people get in any of these super powerful cars (Vipers, Vettes, Porsches) traction control or not and do stupid things like flooring the car or not being attentive to shifting and braking. This isnt a...

    Loss Of Control, Accidents

    These posts really continue to intrigue the hell out of me.....almost all of the spin-out, crash posts relate to residential street and highway driving not the bump and grind of the race track. DC makes this car for public consumption right - there are no warning labels on it like smokes or...

    Coupe HP Solution?

    How about a hole in the floor of the Viper like the Fred Flintstone mobile, you could use "foot power" to aid torque and HP?

    My Thoughts on SRT-10 Coupe

    Come on guys, lets stop with the age related Vette owner comments. I am sure not everyone that owns a Viper is 21 or less. Both cars are great. Lets pick on the Porsche and Lambo drivers -- they are the jokes right?

    some positive thoughts for a bad situation...

    Same here -- prayers and thoughts are with the family and glad it wasnt worse. I have a daughter who is 12 as well and this sort of situation is extactly what I have been concerned about regarding Viper ownership. One has to be careful when handling such a big torque car. Depressing the gas to...

    SRT 10 Colors

    Believe it or not I contacted Bill P at Woodhouse today to begin next steps towards an SRT 10 acquisition. I forgot to ask this of Bill what I was curious regarding the number of SRT's made by exterior color i.e. do they produce more red then black, are the white and yellow Snakes the most rare...

    How Many Spin Outs or other loss of Control ?

    Mamba Man, I own a Vette and a 911 Turbo Porsche -- was looking to add an SRT 10 to the stable and retire the Vette. I test drove the car, spent time researching it -- the concern I have relates to the many numerous posts about driving it -- clearly there is a ton of testosterone driven stories...
