    Smokin some vipers at Road Atlanta [video]

    Yep, there are 4 different vipers in the video. The 1st blue white, then there is a black with white stripe, then there is the blue white smoky/loud with the spoiler (he crashed his car unfortunately later in the day) and the last one is Ryan (blue white), he was just toying with me. tim

    Hi Pete, looking forward to getting some instruction from you in the future. Ryan was the viper at the end. He got down to a 1:41, and I ran a best of 1:44.

    Smokin some vipers at Road Atlanta [video]

    Well the vipers definately had me on the straight... but if you are hounding someone in the corners let them pass, if you are on their a@@ again later they should let you by, it is not a real race. In the case of a race things are a bit different I would imagine. tim

    hey pete how did my line look? Ryan rode with me the first couple of laps. The video was from my first day at the track.. I guess I am indirectly your student since Ryan told me you taught him the track. Hope to see you around at some events eventually.. Tim

    What's my 97 GTS worth?

    Re: What\'s my 97 GTS worth? Well I know you viper owners aren't happy, but I am glad to see a viper gts coming in my price range. I love my z06, but when the new c6 comes out and a new z06, I will probably want a new car, I won't want to pay a premium for a c6, so was hoping to try out a...

    Insurance for high performance driving events

    To the first poster, I would bet you are covered by your insurance, even though they said you are not. If you are not covered why would they make you say you are not going to do de's or lose you policy? Why do they care if they don't have to pay anyway? I'll bet they have to insure you...

    The video lap time was a 1:54 (digital video has the time stamp on each frame great advantage at a non timed event). My best lap later in the day was a 1:53.

    I let us all down

    There are a couple of what I would call reliable posters on the covetteforum. Not many at all. One guy who I had in mind was actually at 12.1 on stock tires. Here are his times and a link where lot's of different people chimed in. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=357696 _______...

    I want to go ROAD Course Racing, BUT R our BREAKS this bad ?

    As mentioned above, this has nothing to do with the quality or lack thereof of the viper's brakes. It is a matter of flushing brake fluid, and putting in fluid with a high temp. Brake fluid absorbs water over time, thus brake fluid has a dry and wet boiling point. I run valvoline sythetic...

    I know you pulled 2 spark plugs to make it fair, just like when you were running those 16 sec 1/4's.

    I let us all down

    PS the z06 will run very high 11's to super low 13's depending on the driver. My first time out I ran 12.9 @ 112 . I expect I could run in the mid 12's now, but it's all in the launch!

    I let us all down

    Hey this is something I was wondering about, how do dot r tires do for drag racing? I was thinking as sticky as they are they should reduce the 60 ft times. Any experience:? I saw the post about the kuhmos, any others?
