    New brake rotors

    I'm speaking based on my '02 GTS. The special tool sure makes the job easier. I purchased the brake caliper kit from Harbor Freight for about $30. It took me a while to get the hang of it but it's actually not too hard. I think some have created their own tool by bending the tips on a...

    Anyone need a 1:18 Autoart GTS-R?

    Edi, I don't have that one. My advice is to be patient because that one is findable. It's one of the more recent issues and shows up on ebay from time to time. If I run across one I'll keep you in mind. Terry

    ebay bait and switch!

    I'm just about done with ebay and paypal. If you leave negative feedback for a seller for not disclosing something, they return the favor. I recently got my first negative (retaliatory) feedback that way. Ebay won't do anything about it. They told me that I could work with the seller and we...

    Prayers for Gary....

    Will do. Gary has been a big part of the Viper Racing League and Viperdays. The ICU part isn't good but at least it sounds like he may be moved in a couple of days.

    Track Reliability

    I would say the easiest mods for improving lap times would be upgrading the braking system. There are systems out there that allow you to use the much improved SRT-10 front brakes on the GTS. Of course anything that improves acceleration will also help but that's probably not specific enough...

    Viper driving school???

    If you're bringing your Viper with you check out www.viperdays.com . I don't know of any schools in the U.S. that use a Viper as the "school" car but there are lots of good driving schools. It would be great if you could join us in Indiana in August for the event at Putnam Park. Members of...

    Good deal on a Final Edition GTS?

    I just can't see $39k being a steal. The car has obviously been in an accident yet the "Carfax shows a clean one owner car". That just means there's no documentation of the accident or proper repair. My guess is the 2nd owner wrecked it within the 1st 60 days, had it shoddily repaired, and...

    Viper GTS Weathervane

    Man, that thing looks dangerous! :) I wonder how hard it would be to paint the car to match yours...kind of like they do with the winning jockey colors at Churchill Downs after the Kentucky Derby.

    How would my GTS do against an SRT?

    I agee. Better brakes and suspension along with more hp put the Gen III in a higher class at Viper Days. There's no way my stock Gen II could compete with them (assuming same driver skill of course).

    Need #91 minichamps

    What is the color scheme? The only #91 I have in my collection is the 2000 Daytona Red/White. I thought I had most of them. Terry

    Cerberus Buying Chrysler Group?

    I heard that Mercedes paid $36 Billion for Chrysler and they just sold them for $7.x Billion. Now that's a tax write-off! I'll take a wait-and-see approach but most of these types of investor groups are interested in cost cutting and maximizing profits. It will be interesting to see how the...

    brake questions

    As I posted in another brake post, Harbor Freight has the caliper pkg that you need. It comes in a red plastic case and contains a few different sizes, one of which fits the ABS calipers perfectly. I paid $19 on sale. It takes some getting used to using it but once you get the hang of it...

    Where can I get the tool for rear ABS brake caliper piston retraction???

    I have an '02 and I purchased a caliper kit from Harbor Freight. The kit comes in a red plastic case and it has a few different sized discs, one of which fits perfectly in the '02. It does take some getting used to when using but once you get the hang of it, it's actually pretty easy. I bought...

    Legality of racing seats

    Thanks, I've been wondering about the Sparco Corsa - did you consider that one? Why did you choose the Evo 2? Maybe I need to talk to Bobby at the next Viper Days to see what is best for me. Terry

    WCGT this weekend

    I'm all for that. If VRL grows so will Viper Days, at least by my logic (or lack thereof) :) Has the race taken place yet?

    Anyone need a 1:18 Autoart GTS-R?

    I don't have any '91's left. The Daytona is probably easier to find than the LeMans but I haven't seen either for a while. Terry

    These New Forums

    I like the new look. Question: Is there a way to go from one discussion forum to another without going back the the Forums page? It would be nice to go directly from say the Gen1&2 forum to the Gen3 forum without going back to the Forums directory page. If this is already doable I...

    Copperhead collectibles ?

    I have an extra "raffle" edition copperhead (1:24 scale by Maisto) I'd be willing to sell for the $30 plus shipping. It says it's an '03 SRT-10 but it seems to be the same as the '05. Terry

    Anyone need a new set of Gen 1 Front Factory Brake Pads?

    I took the pads to a local dealer and had them run the Part #. It came back that these pads were the fronts for a '92-'96 Viper. Can someone with a '92-'96 report back on whether there is one pin or two pins that hold the front pads in place? I suppose it could be true that '92 - '00 fronts...
