    How to beat Ryan94rt10? Make him autocross!

    Hey Surly, Pete mentioned something about having a Georgia VCA autocross series next year in conjunction with the Atlanta Porsche Club. So I guess we can all watch for that. As far as Ryan goes, the main point was just to poke fun at him because he is always on this board and Corvette Forum...

    How to beat Ryan94rt10? Make him autocross!

    Well, we have all heard Ryan's online bragging about what a butt-kicking racer he is. Achilles99 and I decided to put this to the test today at the last Atlanta Region SCCA autocross event of the year. Ryan brought his great-looking and great-sounding 96 GTS to the event. Achiiles had his 00...

    Ga VCA Xmas party this Saturday , You are invited!

    That sounds awesome. I would love to come to those PCA events. There was one event I went to early in 2002 where I thought they had a really unsafe course layout and someone almost had a wreck. I've been told that was not the way they normally do setup, though.

    I am really looking forward to seeing what you guys have GOT on Sunday. We should definitely meet up and drive over there together. I won't be able to make it to the thing at Andretti, but Achilles will fill me in. I have never seen a Viper at one of these events. Now we are gonna have FOUR...

    Please welcome Achilles99 into the Viper nation!

    Speaking of rides, when I got the Viper, I took it home to show my parents. They've got two neighbors who came over to see the car. These were the same two guys who I had given rides to 2 years ago when I got my Z06, and I scared the hell out of them. They wanted a ride on the Viper too, but...

    1st autocross in the Viper: impressions vs. Z06

    Ron, leave Mike alone! (although I wonder if Mike deserves a little criticism for showing an avatar of a car he NO LONGER HAS ... Anyway, here are the answers to the questions you guys posed: (1) Steve: the course changes at every event, so this was a new course on the Viper. It was...

    1st autocross in the Viper: impressions vs. Z06

    Well, I did my first autocross event in the Viper yesterday, and wanted to share my experience with everyone. Keep in mind that I autocrossed Corvettes for 3 years before this, including 2 years in my 2001 Z06. I thought the Z06 was an awesome autocross car. I was absolutely blown away by how...

    Where can I find a line drawing of a GTS?

    Hey everyone, I'm looking for a black-and-white drawing of a GTS, perhaps from the side and top, that I could then mess around with in photoshop to experiment with various paint schemes. Can anybody point me to one? P.S. I am NOT repainting my car, if you were wondering...

    Help me advise a friend on Gen I vs. Gen II

    Thanks everyone for the replies. I think my friend is going to get a Gen II RT/10 -- he has to sell his existing car and then he'll be on a Viper hunt! I think what did it is driving mine! That's the power of the Snake!

    Does anyone make a rear-compartment cover for the GTS?

    Does anyone know where I could get a cover that would shield the contents of my "trunk" area in the GTS? Seems like something that there should be, but I have never heard anybody talk about it.

    Help me advise a friend on Gen I vs. Gen II

    Hey everyone, I have a friend who is strongly considering getting a Viper as a semi-daily driver. He wants an RT/10, but is not sure whether getting a Gen II is worth the extra money. This would not be a track car -- just for street use. My friend is a very serious performance enthusiast, so...

    Hey Atlanta folks -- I have a warranty repair that needs to be made (leaking windshield!!), and wanted to know who in the area you trust with your cars. Any advice would be appreciated.

    This is your car on ZAINO

    This is your car on ZAINO

    I had an enjoyable Sunday changing my oil and applying several coats of Zaino to the new snake. I snapped a few pictures, which turned out OK, but it could have been sunnier. Anyway, take a look in the "My Viper GTS" album: http://y42.photos.yahoo.com/sevendust_d2 BTW, the oil had been...

    Oil change on my 02 GTS

    Hey guys, I am about ready to change my oil, and wanted to ask if there is anything special about doing it. Can I lift the front end only, or do I need to lift the whole car?

    Call me ChrisGTS from now on!!!

    Mike, I was converted long ago -- just biding my time until I could take the plunge! Your insights on Z06 vs. Viper were invaluable, since you had both. Now when are you going to get rid of that Ford and get another creampuff?

    Call me ChrisGTS from now on!!!

    Hey Surly, you know you are in large part responsible for the final decision to ditch the Z06 and get the Viper. I wanted to see how the Viper behaved on the track, and you and the other guys there in June gave me a great demo. Chasing that 993tt down the back straight was so much fun! I am...

    Call me ChrisGTS from now on!!!

    Probably just K&N's -- I would like to stay in my stock SCCA class for autocross, and I think even smooth tubes would disqualify me. I would really like for the Atlanta Viper group to have some sort of gathering or cruise up through the mountains. I met a number of people at a track day at...
