    Viper In car video @ Autobahn Country Club road course

    That M3 is pretty quick, thats the Fall Line Me (races T2 in SCCA and does rather well). Goes to show when you take a weaker car with a good driver the differences it makes (by that I mean look how ron toasted the Ferrari, 911, and mustang, (cars that should be faster than a stock M3) but the M3...

    Heffner or Palo?

    Paolo wanted more more and more......... tuners at the time didn't think there was a need or demand for the power levels Paolo wanted (ohhhhh how they were wrong). So he's doing it himself..............

    Heffner or Palo?

    I saw Paolo's DIY TT setup last night, and all I have to say is WOW. Very impressive. They definately did their homework with this setup too. No corners were cut, and I can tell you the install is very straightforward. I like both tuners, and know they will both have great products. But I...

    Viper GTS Vs. Porsche Twin Turbo

    Pretty sure it was stock. I do have 501 rwhp but these cobra's are pigs, weighs like 3850-3900 with me in it. thats crazy. I am dead even with a aquaintance's 05 911 TT S. he has a different exhaust but don't know how much that helps those cars. Tom

    Viper GTS Vs. Porsche Twin Turbo

    Just a note HOLD TYT (98 GTS headers, exhaust, smooth tubes, vec 2 484rwhp 543rwtq) and I (2003 Mustang Cobra 501 rwhp 484rwtq) rolled up on a 996TT sat night on the highway. We both ran him. It was ugly. I started 1 car back from the 996tt in 2nd gear, and caught him by middle of 3rd. By top of...

    Welcome to sports car JAIL!

    TOOOFST I also believe that last year in IL they passed a law that says anything over 30 or 35mph over the limit is not only reckless driving, but a class C misdemeanor......ahhhhhhh

    Roe 10psi Pulley ?

    sure it can be done, but you'll have no timing. You'll need to pull out a lot of timing. 10psi on that blower is producing quite a bit of heat. Once the intercooler comes out you'll be better off.

    New Roe, Scratch one Porsche GT3!

    GT3 is no slouch. Stock for stock you'd be surprised (but how many stock vipers are left, right?). The GT3 is as fast (if not faster) than a stock twin turbo. GT3 doesn't have much in the way of upgrades for power, just don't follow him into the corners, it'll eat a viper alive on a twisty road...

    Engine backfiring

    Or if you have recently replaced the plug wires, check to make sure the right spot on the coil is going to the right plug.

    Drag Race between a Ram SRT10 QUAD and Corvette?

    The RAM SRT10 Quad cab is slower than the vette. Plain and simple. 14.3 1/4 mile for the truck vs. 13.3's for the vette. Only bad thing about the Ram QC is the mileage, ouch. Its as bad as the H2

    Larry, I wasn't being nast or anything. He just asked a question. I added an anser to the best of my knowledge. So it looks like creampuffs are gonna need 9's now too. Geesh, next thing you know all the creampuffs will be going 8's,,lol. Good job john. Get some nice HIGH octane fuel and a great...

    Creampuff goes 10.54, thanks Larry Macedo

    Great pass... As for the Q. Butch the Snake took the yellow 2001 GTS to 10.42 @ 134.xx last year with a 150 shot. Backed it up with another 10.4 @ 134 (this was at the annual Viperclub drag day). Later last year it went 135.xxmph. Keep up the good work and keep showing what the creampuffs can do.

    Top speed with Roe s/c with 3.55 gears???

    you might be able to get to 200mph with the power and the 3.55 gear. No way you'll pull 6th to redline. Even with the 3.55 gear you'd be upwards of 260mph. You'd need at least 1600hp (probably a lot more). With stock gearing you should be able to get to top of 5th at 200mph

    Which headers to buy?

    I say Belanger. Great sound. One of the best flowing headers (actually all the aftermarkets are decent). All probably comes down to price.

    Any high horse power vipers in Chicago want to race?

    Tommygun, You caught me. The more I think the more I bet the 300 Would be a good project car now (now that I have a place to do stuff to it). Ab race him from a 30 roll (you'll still have traction trouble but it will be more controlable). He's going to need almost 150 to 200 more hp than you...

    Any high horse power vipers in Chicago want to race?

    AMS had at least two 9 sec cars this year. It was a converted mirage into a evo2. Pretty sick to see a car spin all 4 tires all the way through the 1/8th mile. DSM= Diamond Star Motors. Next time you walk by a mitsubishi look at the emblem, its 3 diamonds in the shape of a star.
