    Better late than never

    Is that a garage or the lobby of a hotel? My garage has not looked like that even when new. PAvenom RT/10

    Letting an interested buyer drive your car

    I bought my car from a dealer 2000 miles away sight unseen based on my trust in the salesman responsible for the sale. He was very honest about the car and I have been very happy with it ever since. PAvenom RT/10

    New here. Wanted to introduce myself and have a few Viper questions.

    Welcome to the VCA and BTW, great choice of car, color, and interior! The red RT/10 with the black and tan Conolly leather interior is both rare and my favorite combination. In additon to what others have said, I also strongly advise on getting Hi-flo cats and different exhaust as it will run...

    6th Gear - Why?

    I love 6th gear on the highway even doing 60 mph because it reminds of the big powerful V10 lurking under the hood with all that torque that can power the car while idling at about 1100 RPM. PAvenom RT/10:drive:

    ZR1 Scalping

    What's the big deal? Most everyone knows that pound for pound and horsepower to horsepower Vipers are faster than Vettes. Why I even beat a guy on a busa once. I kind of snuck up on him while approaching a light and while he started to slow down I nailed it just as the light turned green. I...

    Considering purchasing a 2000 steel gray GTS

    I have had a 2000 RT/10 for a number of years and love the car. Viper engineers put the newer pistons and cam in the engine for a reason, smoother running and to meet revised EPA emission standards. All Vipers are great cars including the 2000-2002 Gen II Vipers. PAvenomRT/10

    #209 Ready to Hit The Road

    All the above advice seems very good to me. My question is how does a 92 Viper get hidden in a garage for all these years? How could one forget about it? In any case, I am sure you will have a very enjoyable trip (although as mentioned above the heat may be a problem). On your way south...

    Some Viper Pics

    After a day at the track at Englishtown, NJ road course, I decided to give my Viper a bath to get rid of all that brake dust. Pics are attached. Other cars on the track that day included a couple of C6 Vettes, a Gen III B&W Viper, and a Lamborghini Gallardo. However, the lambo had to pull out...

    NJ VCA track day

    Will the NJ VCA chapter again sponsor a Viper track day at the NJ Motorsports park? If so, can you post the day and how to register for those of us in neighboring chapters such as PA/WV and NY. thanks, PAvenomRT/10

    Best Deal on an RT/10????

    Thanks Bill for your very concise explanation regarding the newer Gen II engine with the eutectic pistons. I specifically opted for the "new" engine because I believe the engineers improved on the earlier version and I am not interested in supercharging. Glad to hear the 2000's are the fastest...

    I felt bad on what happened to a ACR in Dallas April 16th

    Give the cop a break. He saw 2 high powered high profile Vipers going side by side down the interstate by their own admission 10 mph over the limit (more likely 15-20) and he pulled one over. He ended up giving him just a warning instead of a ticket so that seems pretty reasonable. PAvenomRT/10

    Optima Battery in Ontario ????

    My suggestion would be to go to Sears and get a Gold or Platinum battery. They have a 5 yr warranty that is prorated and a 1 or 2 yr full no cost replacement if the battery goes bad. I replaced mine recently when i left the door ajar and drained the battery. It was replaced at no cost...

    Help a french guy

    Congratulations on your Viper. I hope JonB can help you with your dash. You are now the second French person I am aware of who owns a Viper. I have a friend who lives outside of Claremont-Ferrand who owns a 1999 RT/10. She is one of very few Viper owners in France and probably the only...

    Viper ranked #2

    How would the speeds be determined? Can that information be downloaded from the PCM? I am not sure much was left of the PCM or anything else in most of these horrific crashes. PAvenom RT/10

    Battery question

    04SRT right you are! The battery apparently had enough voltage that the tender registered as charged but when i took it back to Sears, it was determined to have a bad cell. they handed me a new battery without charge and i am now back in business. As JonB has recommended many times, the Sears...

    Battery question

    Thanks to all above for your input. I know the starter is good since when i jump it, the car immediately starts. :2tu:I did check the terminals and all are good but i did not double check the battery tender's ouput. I will do so and assuming it is not the tender, i will replace the battery...

    Battery question

    I inadvertently left my drivers side door adjar about 6 months after installing a brand new battery (car was covered in my garage so did not see door adjar). :smirk: As a result, when i went to start the car it was completely dead. :omg: Jump started it and ran the car for a couple of hours with...

    What do you guys use to delete the cats?

    Do us all, yourself, and the environment a favor and get Hi Flo cats. the heat will be reduced and the car more enjoyable to drive. Give JonB a call and he will fix you up.:2tu: PAvenom RT/10
