    K-Mart Treasure Hunt Vipers

    Anybody seen these yet? They're all over Ebay. Supposedly, a K-Mart exclusive Hot Wheels Treasure Hunt item. Two Vipers. Anyone have any idea as to how many of each will be produced? Regular treasure hunt and of course, the "Super" Treasure hunt. Thanks,

    1:64 Scale 2008 Viper

    Good deal! Will this be the first "Dub City" Viper? I don't recal any others under that brand. Hopefully, someone will produce a model(s) of the new ACR. Especially in 1:18!!!!!!! :2tu: Any idea when these (Dub City) will hit the shelves?

    Valentines Day Viper

    Target exclusive, available only in a six car set (one Viper). I believe there are a few floating around on Ebay if you can't find one locally.

    VOI 10 in Detroit - IT'S OFFICIAL!

    I am absolutely THERE!! Still mad at myself for not going to VOI 9 in Vegas. While Detroit is no Vegas, at least the hotel and main venue is a casino. 3.5 hours and I'm driving it. This will be the furthest my car has been away from home since birth. How ironic that it's actually going back...

    Viper Leather Jacket

    I bought the second one pictured (all black). They (AZ chapter) got 10-12 people together last Spring for an order. I honestly must say that it is a beautiful jacket at a bargain price. I've had numerous compliments on it before the complimentor even sees the back. Really top quality. No...

    1 Badd Ride NASCAR!!

    $17.99 + tax!! Looks like they upped the ante on these. Previous 1:24 1 Badd Ride Vipers were $13-14. Wonder if the extra cash goes to Nascar. Probably. Of course, I'm complaining about $4.00 as I sit here and write my $115 VCA renewal check and $125 08 ACR raffle check. Expensive hobby...

    Got these two at Subway today...

    Stopped by a local Subway yesterday for lunch. Owner was running the register and knew nothing about this promotion. Hopefully, they will make their way to OH soon. Oh well, the 12" roast beef sub was goooooood!

    Final Edition Viper models

    To my knowledge, to date, NO manufacturer has made any late Gen II's (00-02) in 1:18. Neither GTS nor RT/10. That means no smooth rims, no RT/10's with a Gen II hood. Heck, even the '96' RT/10 paint schemes still have side pipes on the 1:18 scale models (which we all know is incorrect). It's...

    Dynoed my Viper today 612 RWHP 619 RWTQ! 91 pump gas!

    So back to YOUR CAR: 1. Stock pistons? 2. Did you change the lifters with the cam swap? 3. Who did the re-flash? 4. Who did the motor work? 5. Any mods to the fuel system? 6. How does it sound? Awesome, I'll bet. Congrats on a nice NA build!

    New GTS=R Matchbox #17

    Picked one up as well. Knowing Matchbox, I'm sure they'll make these by the billions. Still nice to add to the collection for only $.98 (plus tax of course).

    Talk me out of this!

    Since you sound more like a collector than a driver (6,700 miles), I'd keep the FE. If you plan on doing a lot more driving, 06 Coupe.

    Wow! that's alot of paint!

    That guy is 25 years too late with that paint job. Reminds me of the cars at Karl Caspers Kustom Car shows as a kid.

    Tire Longevity

    You think they stay soft for 5-6 years? I was thinking they'd start losing grip in 2-3.

    Tire Longevity

    While I'm going to wait til spring, an upgrade to PS2's is inevitable for me. Not because my current Pilot Sports are worn, but because they've become hard and slippery with age. With that said, two questions: 1. How long do a brand new set of tires (PS2's in this case) stay soft and provide...

    New tires = New car

    I need to do exactly this as well. Are the PS2's available in Gen II OEM sizes now? When I looked last the rears were slightly different. 345 vs. 335 I think.

    Terrible Viper Wreck

    Wow! Terrible. Must have slid into it (pole/truck/?) sideways. Any idea of how fast he was going?

    Question for Luke P. at Tire Rack re 2008 Viper Tires . . .

    Luke, Is it possible to order PS2's, in Viper sizes, WITH the R sport cup compound? I understand they are not OEM on the 08 but do they exist? Thanks,

    1:10th 2008 Dodge Viper SRT coupe! RC

    Had to pay good ole' Toys R Us a visit today myself. Here is the 1:10 RC Gen IV next to a 1:12 scale Anson, Gen I. Quite a size difference. The store had three of these. Two had visible damage (scrapes) to the rear quarter panel. Exact same place. Fortunately, the unit I bought is as nice as you...

    3.55 gear Vendor question

    Ordered my 3.33 through Roe when availability was scarce. Everything actually came from Unitrax. Dana/Spicer gear, speedo box, fluids, rebuild kit. Everything labeled with instructions and break-in procedure. Very nice package. Unitrax half shafts and safety hoops from Partsrack.

    looking for a high mile'd gen2

    Is this one of those deals where you will pay $4,000 more than the purchase price and then the seller has to give some mysterious transporter the extra cash for their trouble? Sorry, couldn't resist, good luck with your search.:D :usa: :usa: :usa: :usa:

    1 Badd Ride NASCAR Viper??

    Was at Target today and noticed a new series of 1 Badd Ride. They had a Vette, Mustang, Ford GT all painted up like Nascar. Didn't see a Viper. Packaging did not list the cars in the series. Anyone know if they included a Viper in this latest run?
