    First LA, then Detroit, now new Coupe makes Barret-Jackson

    I agree Craig. Let's make a rule that all posts, regardless of the topic, are open to posted responses that switch the subject to the Z06 or whatever the topic of the day is that you like. That way none of us can follow a thread. Yea that would be the ticket. NOT! Keeping topics on topic is not...

    Has anyone noticed...

    Now you wouldn't be exagerating here would you? I mean not one single person at VOI thought it was nice. Not even one??? And I presume you have interviewed each and every attendee to obtain this absolute opinion. I say loosen up. When you speak for others and then declare the same people as...

    Mopar Comp Coupe wins at Willow Springs

    I do so in your mind I must be a moron. Thanks Craig. So how often has the VRL been live on TV?

    Sorry to say it, but as much as I like Vipers....this is going to kick

    Okay, takes some time to put that roof down though doesn't it? But, as many here agree, the RT/10 and GTS were home runs in the styling department. The SRT is "merely" a triple. Not deserving of criticism, but without the same overall potential. But, unlike the RT/10, the SRT can go beyond 150...

    Mopar Comp Coupe wins at Willow Springs

    Craig - someone once said that if you do not have something positive to say then don't say anything. You should try to listen to that advice. A demeaning first line followed by "congrats" is not very positive.

    Paxton Superchargers

    If I count correctly there are only 5 posters above that have the Paxton kit on their SRT-10. And of those only one appears to be self-installed. There must be some more out there lurking. Come on guys!

    Rendezvoux Locations

    To date I think we have heard of three of the rendezvoux locations. And they are pretty close together. Midwest - St. Louis Southeast - Atlanta Southwest - Kansas City Not sure how many more there are but will they also be in close proximity?

    Paxton Superchargers

    Okay all you Paxton owners how about posting about how your installation went/is going, driving impression, dyno runs, track results, and add on (such as gauges, etc). I know many of you are just dying to let the rest of know how they are.

    Why Is This Section So Lame???

    Craig you are a complete waste of time and band width. Please leave and go to a place where you are wanted. Now was that well written prose?

    some positive thoughts for a bad situation...

    Fred, you really are crazy. Statements like "The last Vehicle to actually contribute to accidents was the ..." are really disconcerting. All vehicles play a part in accidents. The degree varies of course. If th eviper was only able to attain 5 mph the injury rate would be lower. Thus the fact it...

    Rollover Facts

    Okay, what is the percentage of vehicles on the road that are convertible? More or less than 7%? And how about mileage based (since convertibles tend to be fair weather vehicles)? Your analysis does not work with me. 100% of all convertibles that rolled are convertibles (duh!). And some have...

    SouthEast Zone Rendevouz

    Plus the Southeast (maybe the northeast as well once it is stated) seems closer to home. It would be nice to be able to choose (just one I presume).

    60 foot times.. what is possible with stock tires??

    But not on zero pressure tires as is the topic here.

    Should the Viper ever have Traction control and/ or any other Gadgets?

    No, because the bias must prevent rear brake lock-up prior to front lock-up in all conditions. That means the normal bias is highly front wheel. ABS allows the bias to shift to about even front to rear and depends on the ABS system to prevent a rear lock-up condition. I vote for ABS, traction...

    Should the Viper ever have Traction control and/ or any other Gadgets?

    No to ABS removal. ABS allows a much higher rear brake bias. Without it the braking performance would deteriorate due to much less braking at the rears.

    some positive thoughts for a bad situation...

    Damn, hate to say it but I agree with Craig. Did I just say that? Wow! No way should a high performance vehicle come without rollover protection. That includes the Corvette. the fact that they chose not to have it does not excuse DC from not having it. Safety should be a given and not an...

    some positive thoughts for a bad situation...

    So then it becomes LAW??? Walking is even more dangerous. Should we be forced to wear full body armor when walking? Needless to say wearing a helmet for bicycles here is not mandatory, and since I do almost all my riding within the subdivision area I have never worn one. And if you think...

    some positive thoughts for a bad situation...

    "In the US you must wear a helmet when on a bike or motor cycle." Hmm, you must live in a pretty strange place. Motorcycles yes, in many states. But a bicycle! It cannot be a law in wallyworldland could it???

    Thoughts on the Detroit Auto Show

    So did you like the old L-body charger more? 2.2L 100 hp version. I assume that is what you meant by your "old charger." :)

    600hp Hemi V-10 for the new SRT Coupes!

    some positive thoughts for a bad situation...

    I agree completely Fred (said tongue in cheek). Installing capable roll hoops or active roll hoops would be terrible. You might want to tell Mercedes, BMW, Porsche and others that it is not a good practice and encourages bad behavior. The Viper SRT is the ONLY high power sports car that I know...

    TO MODERATOR

    Some quotes from Craig on this topic alone: This place isn't killing SRT sales, Dodge killed the SRT before it even hit the streets dumbass. <font color="red"> Pleasant answer. So I guess it is not racing, marketing or any of the other reasons you have spelled out before. Now it was...
