    Need feedback on new Viper

    That Lambo looks like the lead car in a gay pride parade. Please don't put that color on a car that rips pavement to shreds, turns tires to butter and causes mothers to gather their children when one approches. Greg

    Wife of the Year thread...

    Truth be told - any wife that supports a Viper habit is a keeper! If you're married - and here - you've done pretty darn good in my book. Greg

    2008 Viper ACR For Sale

    Excellent car! I think that, at that price, it should sell fairly quickly. Good luck and whoever buys that beast - see you at the track! Greg

    Wife of the Year thread...

    Mines damn good too. The day we went to pick-up our new ACR she went to the hair salon and surprised me by having her hair dyed to match the drivers side strip. She even wore a red and black outfit. Cool. Greg

    ACR Radiator Hose Collapse Video....

    I've never had a heat issue, but just the same - if there's a problem it should be fixed. Do one of our esteemed vendors have a fix for this? Question though. Has anyone ever had an overheat because of this? Was air in the cooling system the cause of this? Greg

    Removing front splitter/diffuser: any safety issues?

    There's a bunch of guys here with H1's (REAL Hummers....). Just in the post I know of 3! I still say put the splitter on. Greg

    Caravan to VOI 11

    Hey Darbgnik, I know you're out there...... This is the perfect time for a Hummer AND Viper trip. This will be the ultimate gearhead experience! If anyone out there has a real Hummer or even an H2 or H3 - consider this trip together. I'll be guiding for The Hummer Club International...

    Removing front splitter/diffuser: any safety issues?

    I drive my ACR all over the place with the splitter and I have the suspension set very low. No issues whatsoever. I say leave it on!

    Caravan to VOI 11

    I'm pretty sure that I can make it - and I will convoy. I just LOVE working up a new track and I've heard great things about Miller. Many of you know my friend Doug - he was your classroom instructor at the Calgary Viper Event last summer. He went to Miller last year and claims he had more...

    Caravan to VOI 11

    BTW, When I do my fall trip to Moab I usually go in mid September. Twice in the last 4 years I've hit snow in Southern Alberta and Northern Montanna. 3 years ago it was so bad that power lines were down from the snow load. Not a problem in the Hummer. In the Viper that's a different story.

    Caravan to VOI 11

    It's a long 1 day drive from Calgary. I make the drive twice a year in my Hummer on the way to Moab, Utah and New Mexico for some rock crawling. Unfortunately it looks like I'll be guiding groups of Hummers in Moab at the same time...... Damn! Once I confirm the Moab dates I'll see if I...

    What's the best performance upgrade for a 06 coupe?

    What for? Drag racing? Road course? Posing? For me the single biggest bang for the buck is a wheel alignment with a ton more negative camber - but I need that for the track. Greg

    Anyone have a Lift King lift ? I do now. Pics!

    Re: Anyone have a Lift King lift ? What makes the lift good for storage but not for working on? I'm about to buy a Lift King (local company, fantastic reputation). Is it the way the lift is configured or is it just the repeated use? BTW, the local Mercedes dealer uses the Lift King...

    Race City - SAVED!!

    It 'LOOKS' like everything will still work out - but Bronco is still pushing hard to get rid of it. When I find out that Race City has a signed lease I'll let you guys know. Greg

    Re: Anyone have a Lift King lift ? Turn plates go under the front wheels. They allow you to turn the wheels easily and they measure the amount that you've turned them. It'll make alignments on my race car easier. I use portable ones now. I go to a pro to get my ACR aligned.

    Anyone have a Lift King lift ? I do now. Pics!

    Re: Anyone have a Lift King lift ? I got a quote for a Lift King yesterday. I need the 12000lb lift so I can put my truck on it. I also plan on getting 'the slider' that allows you to lift your vehicle off it's wheels while it's in the lift. The 12000lb lift also has turn plates which will...

    Re: Anyone have a Lift King lift ? Jeez, I'm in the process of rebuilding my garage too. They're tearing down my existing shop today and tomorrow and I'm building a completely new one. 11' foot walls with a vaulted ceiling. Next fall I'm planning on the 12000lb LiftKing. I want to lift my...

    Lap Time - I'm So Freak'n Happy

    I'm in Athens, Greece right now (at an internet cafe) so I don't have my 'book'. The car is 100% stock (this mattered to me) including brake pads and rotors. I did adjust the suspension and I have posted it somewhere on this site..... I can repost when I get home. The track is 11 turns, 2.2...

    Lap Time - I'm So Freak'n Happy

    Anything faster than 1:30 is a pretty good lap time at Race City. First timers are in the high 1:30's - even in a fast car. A really well driven Miata gets to about 1:38. I usually give rides in the 1:24 - 1:25 range and I've had everything from one person pee themselves to 2 folks puke...
