    Texas Viper Roundup

    Won't be able to make it, due to being at work :( Can't book the time off as we're short staffed (in fact, looks like for a couple of nights it might just be me, which will suck big time if that's how it plays out!)

    Eagle's Canyon Raceway

    Not very exciting for those who have properly raced and done fast laps, but definitely enough excitement for me being new to the car! http://youtu.be/LrGss8Vb9lw

    Eagle's Canyon Raceway

    So, added 400 miles onto the Viper's clock, and was close to 8 hours driving to get there and back. But some of those miles were my first time on a track, with the free "lead and follow" which was great fun! Did also confirm what I suspected, that my gear shift is not how it ought to be, since...

    Impressed more every day

    TY for the info on what brought you to my neck of the woods! Let me know when you are next up around here, looking forward to meeting some fellow VCA folks. Haven't had my car 2 weeks yet, so I am definitely feeling more impressed every day too as I get more and more familiar with it (slowly...

    Need a new windshield due to hail damage last night...

    Modified another one, which may help or hinder the decision! Myself I think the white is a bit more classy, the red a bit more sporty. You could always go sapphire blue of course ;)

    Calling all sapphire bules

    Sweet! And hello! I see you're not too far from where I picked the car up too, so it's not too far away from where I'm based now. And just got an excellent tip on the issue of front license plates from looking through some posts you contributed to. How much good info there is to learn on this...

    Calling all sapphire bules

    I know I know, bringing a thread back from the dead - zombie thread wants braaaaains! Anyway since this Sapphire Blue has relocated and changed owners I thought I would join in to help keep track - I'm told the only one this color in the N Texas club, RT/10 or otherwise. First pic I had...

    My GTS Make Music Video Cameo

    Moar Viper! Haha! The music and video are brilliant, that was a treat to watch. I saw a sunburst Strat in there I believe, so has my favorite guitar as well as my favorite car. Did I mention moar Viper? ;)

    A few questions before purchasing...

    As a new owner myself, who hadn't driven a manual in about 15 years and even back then only for a limited time, I wouldn't say the Viper is "hard" to drive. What it does is require your full attention while driving. The big ol tires love to follow every bump or rut in the road. In low gears, the...

    Gear shifting questions

    Hey someone from the UK! Awesome. I'm UK born and bred, from the NE of Scotland, only been over in Texas the last 10 years. I think owning a Viper in the UK would be a great experience as I imagine they are even more rare over there :) Sorry for the sidetrack, now back to the useful information.

    Gear shifting questions

    Yep, definitely more than 25K miles, she's had a life prior to me! Over 56K on it in fact, so that's quite a bit for one of these cars from what I've seen. Thanks Dan for the info, that does indeed sound like it matches what I'm experiencing, and it sure isn't shifting like butter right now and...

    Gear shifting questions

    Thanks AZTVR, I didn't think it sounded quite right from the forum searches but wanted to see what you all thought with these particular symptoms. I'll get it checked out and maybe swap it out for an aftermarket of my choice anyway - which was your favorite out of the Hurst and B&M btw? I've...

    Have to sell my GTS..

    Nice car - I know you'll be sad to see it go, but congratulations to you both on your new house purchase as the offset to that! Hope it sells at or around your asking price (which seems like a good price so it should) and hope it finds a good home.

    Gear shifting questions

    Hey all, Told ya I'd have questions - time to begin! This relates to the shifter. The 2001 RT/10 I recently acquired has (documentation claimed) a short throw shifter. I am finding a couple of issues with the shifter, I'll try and describe them all below so someone can tell me what is up...

    Saying hello

    Thanks for all the new welcomes! Thanks for the info Greg, yes the price was awesome I felt, gives me a sense of reassurance that someone else has looked it over too (someone who knows more about what they are looked at than me, at that!) I had heard when I was working with the dealership that...
