Snakebolt,
This weekend i went to the NYC auto show and saw the new viper for the second time. This time it was not roped off and i was able to examine it real close. From the looks alone i think the older body style is waaay more aggressive looking and has a more stunning appearence. So i...
Has anyone on the net experienced driving both these cars?
I'm currently in search of one and could use a little insight
since the closest i have found so far that i like is in Florida.
BTW the GTS stays.
Thanks in advance.
Re: Who\'s gone fast in their R/T10?
I love going as fast as anyone else but every once in a while you get a grim reminder of what speed can do. last night myself and a few friends decided to go see 'ground zero' in NYC. Anyway in a small tunnel that leads to the FDR there was an accident...
Ok so i can't figure out how to post a quote.
Anyway, If what happened to Jeff ever happens to me, there's a good chance the wife is walking home. I'll figure out something when i come home 2 days later. Alien abduction or something to that effect.

Jon B,
I totally agree with you and believe me i did let her have it for not wearing her belt, but what really astonished me was the quickness of the car during the lane change and her body actually lifting from the G force. I haven't seen that before and i have had plenty of high performance...
On the lighter side of things.
I'm finally exploring all the capabilities of the Viper.
Today i took a ride on a somewhat lonely road and decided to see how the viper would handle a left to right double lane switch at abot 55 mph or so. I must say the car was excellent but the passenger happened...
Re: When\'s it time for a new clutch????
If the Viper clutch is like any other....the way that i could always tell is by the position of the clutch pedal when the clutch starts to engage.
If it starts to engage at the very top, get ready for a replacement.
I got mine today.
Surprised to find out there are only 660 Vipers in NYS.
I've had my car for one year and have only seen two others on the street a yellow r/t and a red GTS.
I drove down to florida and back last month and did not see a single one. I did see three Diablos, one Modena and a...
Hey Snakebolt i'm sure you'll make it. If the Viper itself is not enough incentive here's what happened to me one day last summer while driving. This very pretty female pulls up in a brand new white vette and gives me thumbs up. Now occasionally i am seen driving that white vette.
This may sound strange, but i really get very uncomfortable with all the attention these cars get. I bought the car because i like the looks and performance. At red lights i'm getting in the habit of stopping right in the middle of the cars next to me in an attempt to avoid attention (doesn't...

Re: Finally Opened up the GTS and here\'s what i found
Robiferreti,
I was not at the beach yesterday. Wish i had been.
Marteeni,
The GTS is stock the zr1 has mods. If both cars were stock the zr1 would be no match for the GTS except in the braking category.
But as both cars are set up, the...
NOSZR1,
What mods do you have to your car besides nos.
My modified zr1 is a tad quicker than my stock 96 gts in the 1/4, but after that the z walks away. I am thinking about nos on the z by the summer.
I just don't have the heart to do it to the GTS yet, since it doesn't even have 2,000 miles...
Re: Finally Opened up the GTS and here\'s what i found
Hello Snakebolt,
As Joe says it's Viper Blue w/ stone white stipes.
Many people in the street have described it as you did.
After one year of ownership the only things that have gone wrong are: 1. one of the wiper motors (probably from...
Finally Opened up the GTS and here\'s what i found
After owning my GTS for exactly one year and logging 1100 pampered miles (before i get flogged...I do have other toys that i use frequently) for a total of 1500 miles on the OD i finally decided to put the pedal to the metal.
I made a U turn...
So far the most supid question i have been asked is:
Why does your car have speakers on the hood?
Answer: so i can keep the car locked with the windows up and still listen to music.
Reply: Woooow.
El Diablo,
let us know how it turned out.
I wish i had found out sooner. I am familiar with this event and where it is. Nice roads.
The vette drs are friends of mine an they have some serious cars there.
I'll catch the next one.
