    Driving in the rain

    Hard not to get caught in the rain in south florida. car handles great, just watch out for the big puddles. some great advice I read posted once, drive in one higher gear than you normally would when raining and you will be just fine.

    Took RT Out For Ride Last Night...Top Off, Great!

    I have never had an issue with leaking with my factory hard top on my 2000 rt/10 even after driving 3 hours last weekend in a florida monsoon. I love my rt/10. it is like so many cars rolled into one. One of the things I love most is the removable back window for those days where I need the...

    Lance's Console Wedge from Dave?

    I ordered one from dave when an overexuberent date leaned to hard on the console and started a very small hairline crack. great quality and it added the strength to the console it should have had in the first place. and before anyone has a wise comment she was about 5'5" and 110 lbs.

    why i hate SSG (or green with envy)

    On a recent trip to the keys with 5 other Vipers, the SSG charmed all on lookers. everyone loved the cars but the SSG got most of the attention. my black 2000 RT/10, the only gen 2 in the group, gots lots of approval due to the body style, but that damn SSG was the star of the show. in key...

    Viper Swerves Everywhere

    check to see if front and rear wheels are the same type/make/model. I had old tires(pilots) on front and new ps2 on the rear for about a week. had exactly the same issue, car would dart around on its own and speed made it much more dangerous. new ps2s all around car is stable as can be.
