    2012 GT-R takes down the ACR's record?

    Cost of new 2010 ACR about $115,000. Cost to ship car to Nurburg and rent the ring for 2 days probably about $40,000. Cost for travel and accomodations of pit crew and driver (I volunteer for assignment) $20,000. Cost for return shipment of car to Detroit $10,000. Total cost of the above...

    ACR or wait for a new one?

    If you are paying off the 06 this year, why not trade it in on a new ACR (09 or 10) and finance the balance. You wil not be disappointed in the ACR. It is a phenomenal car with handling and performance unlike other Vipers IMO. PAVenomRT/10

    What the Viper was made for...

    Snakebit06, While I can understand the allure of the autobahn, driving at those speeds in traffic can obviously be disastrous. Be careful! I prefer to do that kind of driving on a closed track with safety equipment and no traffic to worry about. So far I have not found a Porsche that can stay...

    New 2009 Viper ACR pricing?

    In addition to Tomball Dodge, contact Bill Pemberton at Woodhouse Dodge. I just bought a 2009 ACR from him and he was great to deal with and will give you a fair price. PAVenomRT/10

    Are the Gen II's value a little too high??

    The original poster lost all credability with his argument by stating that a GENIV will sell for 45K. That 45K might cover the motor alone but not much else unless the car also came wrapped with its own telephone poll. PAVenomRT/10

    VOI Commercial

    Very cool video. However, I did not see them both buckled up so that could be construed as child abuse. PAVenomRT/10

    Locked out of my Viper?

    I had the same problem with my RT/10. I turned the rearview mirror light on while driving and forgot to turn it off after parking the car. Since i keep the car covered in the garage, i didn't notice the light on at night. After a couple of days, went to start the car and the battery was...

    Reformed Porsche Owner Just Got Bit

    Adrenaline junkie, If you want the best of both worlds, get a new ACR. Car will handle better than the Porsche and outrun virtually anything on the road or track. PAvenomRT/10 2009 ACR:drive:

    Chuck Tator National Celebrity !!

    All of us in the Viper community were saddened by what happened to Tator's Dodge dealership with the loss of his franchise. However, it seems to me the problem arose not with the government's bailout requirements but long before with the mismanagement of GM and Chrysler in loosing market share...

    Track Day SRT10 ACR Hot Tire Pressure

    I strive to achieve equal hot tire pressures (38 psi) on all 4 tires after each track session. Usually by the end of the second session, all 4 are the same pressure which helps to balance the car (09 ACR). Start out at 30 psi cold and you will be pretty close. PAvenomRT10

    FINALLY !!!!!!

    Congratulations on your new FE. I have just under 1000 miles on my new ACR and can't quite believe that Dodge built such a fantastic racecar. It is beyond a sports car as in a true racecar with the amenities of a sports car. :drive: This is from one who has owned a GEN II for some years. BTW...

    Are the gen2's too affordable now ?

    You guys must have too much time on your hands to worry about such things. They are not making any more Vipers now and assuming they start up again in a couple of years that won't be making any more of our beloved GEN II Vipers. If these non car guys are buying up many of these cars and then...

    How long for breakin?

    Steve, Your point is well-taken. With my own new ACR, I am following the standard breakin procedure of keeping RPM's below 4K, varying engine speed, changing oil at 500 miles, etc. My ownly point with the ACRX's is that the standard procedure is rather conservative and the original poster with...

    How long for breakin?

    I have been told by a reliable source that the new ACRX race cars were delivered and then raced with minimal breakin. There are those who believe that the most critical breakin period is during the first 20 miles or so when the engine should be gradually loaded to optimally seat the rings...

    Learn to Park

    Anonomous, When i started to read your post, i was all set to criticize you for your criticism of a fellow Viper owner who wanted to protect his car. However, in viewing the photo, i have to agree with you and most of the others who commented. If you want to protect your car, as I do, park as...

    Door lock and flasher questions

    Check the owner's manual. I had the same issue with my new GenIV and you can change the door locks so that when you unlock the driver's side door, the passenger can remain either locked or unlocked. Factory setting appears to be that passenger door remains locked. It is a simple fix but I...
