    Dinner meeting April 5th

    Tonights meeting was one of the best monthly meetings that we have had. I really enjoyed the presentations from the Detroit Guys. Matt B has the best office job imaginable. His desk time is most often spent behind the wheel of ACR-X, what a job! The swag was cool too! I was nice to finally...

    Sacramento Karting

    Sounds like it was a lot of fun! Brian Angen was just like that at all our Karting events. he was wickedly fast no matter what you did, you couldn't beat him.

    Starter?

    Never add weight to a car( unless to meet minimum weight req in racing)... move what you have to have to the most advantageous position. Chrysler placed the engine as far back as possible to get as close as possible 50/50 weight distribution fore and aft. Chevy did it by putting the...

    Introduction

    Along with other advice, if you plan to drive the car any distance at all ( hours at a time), consider swapping out the cats for Hi-flows. This mod really improves the driver and passenger comfort. I almost never had to use the heater before the mod and now I have to occasionally. We drove...

    Starter?

    I can understand having the battery in the back of the car for weight distribution, but I don't understand having it on the driver side. It should be on the passenger side just Mazda did with my Miata.

    Starter?

    Ain't it ridicules how many different types and sizes of fasteners you have to remove to get to the battery?

    Sacramento Karting

    Thanks for the pics Glen. Looks like a nice facility. Judging by the smiles, everyone had a good time. I recognize most of the people but who was the mystery guest and did anyone beat him?

    Windshield shade

    Yes indeed it was hot today. I found out I need to recharge the AC in the Viper... I have one of the afore mentioned Sun Shades. It came with the car so I don't know how to obtain another one like it. Maybe someone else can provide that information. Front Back The SRT guys have a...

    Gen 2 upper radiator hose problem

    Reverse the new upper factory hose. It can be made to fit, just not exactly the way the original did.. I got mine from Chuck. When I saw the same problem as described above I called the Wizard and he explained that this is how the new supplier molded the part. It can be made to work , but...

    Every time Viper goes to City Cops stop me

    That would be fun!!! One most fun moments that I have had in Viper was something along these lines. I wrote it up somewhere on the blog before. It was before I had my own. I scheduled a ride along with my CHP buddy and Maurice Liang. We met at the CHP station, did the whole shift briefing like...

    Top Gear North America 1st episode

    I agree with you guys. I watched the 1st episode of the US version. I loved the cars but the host just don't measure up to the UK bunch. It was fun to watch Tanner play with the Viper. Tanner is the only one of the three that is acceptable but not extraordinary at his hosting role. The...

    Every time Viper goes to City Cops stop me

    I will probably jinx myself for posting this...I haven't been pulled over driving any of my cars in 6 years. The last 4 years include 43K miles of Viper driving. Didn't say I always kept it under the limit but I have been very diligent while driving. I have had a few close calls where I...

    Headlight Problem

    Vipertanz, don't know if you have a dvm, but the best to way to find the source of the problem is to measure the voltage at the fuse block, relay, and bulb. Then you can identify which branch of the circuit the problem lies and track it down accordingly. You can also just change out the...
