Amen to that ViperGal, I've never met a Viper I didn't like! Some of these boys don't like girls I guess since anything that the "chics" will love is a big no-no. Color preference is not gender specific!
The VCA group discount is at the Holiday Inn in College Station but it's a football game weekend so everything's expensive. TWS is a great track and Viper Days is always fantastic so it will be worth a few extra bucks. Ryan, are you coming to Viper Days at TWS as well as Eagles Canyon? We...
Y2K, why has no one yet mentioned the fact that John Hennessey has wanted to buy out the Viper line now for several years. He has just build a new track in Texas and looks to me to be the that would want to be to Viper what Saleen is to Ford.
A Viper has always outhandled a vette, even a non ACR. The vettes are quicker on the throttle response due to gear ratios, I guess. I can't wait to meet my first ZR1 on the track and see how it goes.
Thanks for the video Chris! The blog at the Motor Trend site is very interesting too. Anyone that has time should read some of the zillion comments. Many of the comments are either very biasd or very inaccurate.
I love the full Belanger system that Mark and Woodhouse put on my ACR. I drove 2 regular '08 Vipers yesterday on the racetrack. Both of them were positively anemic compared to the sound and power of the Belanger system. When you get on the ACR at the racetrack, it bellows like a raging bull...
The violet and black looks menacing! Being a girl, I loved the orange and black, red and black, and blue and black. I wish I could have two ACRs but then I would have trouble chosing the 2nd color. Any color ACR looks good! I had a chance to flog a regular 08 Viper on the track in the SRT...
I think we all have something to prove to the Porsche guys, the Corvette guys, etc. The Viper is the best car on the planet and it deserves a lot more respect than what it usually gets. I'm just trying to do my part to be a good ambassador for the Viper ACR. I need a tee shirt that says...
Thanks for the photo and explanation Lee, have you had your ACR on the track yet? The car is just too awesome to be believed, Chrysler really should make this the flagship model. Automobile mag did another track test with the GT2 and the ACR. The ACR spanked the
GT2 by 2.5 seconds on the...
I just took my ACR around Texas Motor Speedway last night. I've driven a NASCAR there and the ACR feels lots better. I hope I can get enough money to buy another one before they stop making them. Maybe someday the car mags will get with the program and respect the ACR for the FANTASTIC car it...
I really fell in love with the '08 ACR too! Belanger headers and exhaust fix the better sound problem. The Lambo and GT2 don't hold a candle to the ACR. Both of them sound good too if you like sewing machines.
This is just another demonstration of bias against the ACR and Vipers. Any car that outright wins two out of four events and was 2nd and 4th in the other two should be declared the winner. I've driven my '08 ACR at the track a bunch in the last two months and I've ridden on the track in most...
The ACR is just a different car from the regular Viper. I would choose it even if I never went to the track but I do go to the track almost every weekend. I've had a Gen II and III and driven a non-ACR Gen IV. This Gen IV ACR is a superstar! Great job on a great car.
Torque also enables you to use HP. Another good analogy is found in motorcycles. The low torque, high HP sport bikes are all that are used for racing usually and they are all japanese or european origin. Antone see a pattern here? When you have high HP and low torque the bike spins its rpm...
Hey so cal rebel, if you put that center section of your splitter in, you can go faster! Just leave it on all the time, you will never know the difference.
How long is the track at Willow Springs? I did several 1:24s on the 1.7 MSR track in Cresson (Texas). I'm going again tomorrow and trying for a 1:19 or 1:20.
Everybody uses the ash tray for a cup holder. Cup launches come standard with the ACR as do luggage shifts for anything you put in the trunk. Just kidding! It's a great car for a trip or the track or whatever. I only have one car and it's the ACR. He has to do everything and he does it all...
