    MSR October 24th

    Actually a blow out is a distinct possibility...on old tires, keep your speed in check Now are the tires 7 years since they were made or are they the original tires that came with your car (are possibly 8 years or more in age)?

    New 2009 Viper ACR pricing?

    I believe there will be very little discounting on 2010 ACRs -- "Invoice" (~$5000 off) is probably the closest you'll get. An average this year of 35 Vipers are sold each month (with the actual monthly number being larger in the past few months), five more months puts your choice down by...

    ACR or wait for a new one?

    One more consideration..the Gen V ACR will likely be a MUCH HIGHER PRICED car than the ACR you can buy today. The Gen V ACR will likely be more than $120,000 and if they put a lot of carbon fiber into its "skin" that price goes to $200,000 or more. Don't forget that in your considerations of...

    ACR or wait for a new one?

    2+ years is a long way off, one thing is for sure, there will not be any new 2009/2010 ACRs around in two years: www.media.chrysler.com/newsrelease.do?id=9401 Over 313 Vipers have been sold so far this year (on track for 450 or so for the year), and with last year's total of 348 (worst year...

    ACR on 0-60 Magazine Cover!

    Gotta love any magazine that puts the ACR on the front cover! I bought two copies! And the write up is decent as well! :usa::drive::headbang:

    ACR tire sizes

    Not recommended if you plan on tracking the car... The ACR is optimized for the tire sizes it comes with, the 275s give you less patch, more push

    Since the official Gen V debut is near, lets talk Gen 3-4 values

    FWIW The initial Gen V will be *coupe only* that means no roadster, no acr total Gen IV ACR production, somewhere south of 800 units....that's gotta be good for business!

    New 2009 Viper ACR pricing?

    Tomball's pricing is good, just call and ask for Bernie Katz, tell him what you want and he'll tell you what he has...and I think all of Bernie's 2009 ACR's are being discounted

    GEN V Viper picture at VOI 11....

    If you are a VCA member (I know you are hou99) here is a thread started a while back for comments for Gen V http://forums.viperclub.org/grail-trail/634947-what-must-fixed-next-viper.html (of course it has nothing to do with the looks of the model shown at VOI, but lots of input there that...

    just saw the new viper at VOI and......

    No doubt the price will exceed $200, maybe $250,000 if it is a body shell entirely made of carbon fiber

    Just saw the new Viper

    I asked the same in a different thread and was told "no"...not like that It seems this new Viper might be a little further out than 2012 model year, a bit optimistic to bring a car from the "full size model" stage to production in one year.

    So, does it look like this:

    Just saw the new Viper

    You mean "literally" the car under the cover was a production Ferrari or do you mean when unveiled instead of a GenV Viper the car they showed looked more like a Ferrari? (were you there?) thx

    GEN V Viper picture at VOI 11....

    Hmm, get's ya thinking of what is going on... Theory: Somebody at Dodge wanted to show a mockup of the 2012 to the faithful (VOI) so they had to hurry up... But, they could not risk stepping on the toes of the "ones who bring them" (the dealers) so they had to be shown first Solution...

    So I Went to Get My New Tires Mounted This Morning and it Just Goes to Show...

    Not sure if this applies here, but you might call the tire manufacturer and find out the latest production cycle for those tires. I know for a fact that Michelin has gaps lasting a year or so between runs of some tire sizes. So 25 month old tires might be about the best you can do right now....

    Teamtech Harness....

    I have no problem running the buckles through the seat back holes, you do have to turn them sideways a little and maybe a jiggle but then they slide through no problem.

    Fergy's crash at Hallett and Viper Cup Race videos

    After a few times thru the vid, my thoughts: Looks like you were pretty consistent with the brake and throttle (as compared to previous times thru that corner) but this time your tires need more grip, though you braked the same you went back to an even throttle (as you were doing previously)...

    Another reason to buy a Viper....

    Actually not true for my Diablo (owned for 14 years). Remember, it is a dry sump system so it takes 16 quarts.. I buy Agip SINT-2000 oil directly (by the case) and it is only $70 (includes shipping) plus a filter ($10) and your time. If you take it to a dealer they will mark up the price of...

    that's right, bring on a USA STREET LEGAL, completely unmodified powertrain and unmodified suspension car that beats the Viper in the Ring (crickets) -J
