The actual pace car did have a sunroof.
I have pictures of it that I took during qualifying and the race. (but they are in a box somewhere in my basement)
I also fell deep in lust for the GTS that weekend. :2tu:

It all depends on what has been done, how well kept the car is and what you plan on doing with it.
Few random thoughts...
Find a deal for 10K less than average and you can easily drop 10K back into it.
These cars are getting older and the selling prices are ever widening.
If you find...
I am working on a project with Jason and need to collect as many pictures of his customers cars as I can.
Any pics from any angle, engine, interior etc etc.
The only restriction is they have to be your pics or have permission for them to be used for publication.
Please post them up here or...
Who really knows if its a good deal or not until you have the car inspected.
A "deal" can easily cost you an additional 10K+ if you get an example that needs tires, brakes, hoses, belt, fluids, paint work and / or other repairs.
Great 02 FE ACR. My favorite only to my 01 Sapphire/Silver ACR. :) :crazy2:
55K is a steal. I don't care what market conditions are...that car is worth 65K++ all day long in my book.
Enjoy it and respect it!
Sorry to say...I am not sure if I can make it now due to family activities.
I still recommend going as it is a great show and I am sure there will be 1/2 dozen or more Vipers there.
I still might be able to go but its 50/50 at this point.
Your alignment may be off as well if you have adjusted the ride height.
Too much camber either way will reduce grip under straight line acceleration and braking.
Once your alignment is verified and you still have lock up...reduce air pressure in the rear by one to two pounds and try...
There were a few SRT-10's last time we went so yea...bring them. Plus, every car that enters means more money for their mission trip.
I also just put up a shout out on Ferrarichat.com Cincinnati area Ferrari /other exotic car owners... - FerrariChat.com
I am working on a few other events already this summer (not more car shows) so stay tuned.
I met an old racer buddy last weekend and he knows the Doran family so I might see if I can set something up for cruise around town then end up at their race shop for a tour. Doran is a professional...
LaSalle High School Car Show
I think this would be a great start in doing more in the Cincinnati area. We have attended this event before and we basically ruled the show due to the amount of Vipers that have attended. They have even sectioned a part of the lot just for us called "Viper row"...
Sounds good buddy. I will have to ask you to bring something else other than that GTS of yours. I don't know where you got that thing from but geez man...that thing looks like a piece of... :booty:
I have never been a VCA member but have attended a few VCA events over the years as a guest.
I wanted to join but was told they didn't have a windbreaker in my size.
None in the Cincinnati area though. Different this year? If so, I will even join the VCA. :omg:
In the mean time, Cincy is where I am going to concentrate my activities. My time is very limited and I can't spend half my day driving to fast food joints to talk about wax, the latest Viper...
Some interest is brewing. good!
I was thinking of a run to and tours of Valentine One, Doran Racing, Dynamic Motorsports,
A cruise afternoon through Indian Hill (The Beverly Hills of Cincinnati) with a lunch, Friday night get together at the Milford cruise in, tech sessions at local Dodge...
