    ATCO - Some New Bests for the Viper Today

    Good news and bad news: Good: Yes I got some new bests and the car was running STRONG. Cool weather in the 40s is awesome. BUT..... Bad: Track Prep was non-existent and I was running in to a 18-20mph headwind. My car hooks better on the street. I had to lift out of every 1-2 shift, one time...

    I'm begging you all: don't let Vipers be outnumbered!!!!!

    Re: I\'m begging you all: don\'t let Vipers be outnumbered!!!!! Just checked the weather forecast. What sucks is there is supposed to be 20mph winds, not the best situation for racing. Rain should be done by 5AM and track should be dry. I'll play it by ear tomorrow AM, I am always up by...

    I'm begging you all: don't let Vipers be outnumbered!!!!!

    Re: I\'m begging you all: don\'t let Vipers be outnumbered!!!!! Paul, No dra radials on the Viper, I like the way it drives just how it is. A 2000rpm launch with 26# in the Pilots got me a 1.94 60', so I figure a 2500rpm launch with 22# should get me high 1.8s with a little luck and if I can...

    I'm begging you all: don't let Vipers be outnumbered!!!!!

    Re: I\'m begging you all: don\'t let Vipers be outnumbered!!!!! Paul - I am far from an experience driver, I have made a totsl of 2 passes in my Viper at ATCO 2 weeks after I bought it. 1st was a 12.5, second was 12.3. It was 88 degrees out and I was shortshifting at 5000-5200rpms. 1st...

    Re: I\'m begging you all: don\'t let Vipers be outnumbered!!!!! Paul - My buddy Tony (99 GTS - Black) and I will be there. But, what is the deal that my car isn't even in a PURE STOCK class because it runs sub 12.5s STOCK??? Ahhh, who cares, I race the clock anyway and I hope to see 11s...

    Stock '02 RT/10 on street tires runs 11.71 @ 118

    Re: Stock \'02 RT/10 on street tires runs 11.71 @ 118 Paul - Awesome run! 11/13/04 I hope to see a 11 second time slip at ATCO during Vettes vs Vipers, but I can't see duplicating that 60' time you had on Michelins - great job. Howard

    03 cobra VS 04 SRT-10 video here, check it out.....

    Guys - I don't know why people get so UPSET about Ford vs Chevy vs Viper, etc.... Gearheads are gearheads and respect all FAST machinery. I traded my 03 Cobra in on my Viper GTS and do not regret it, I would have loved to keep both. 03 Cobras with $1000-$1500 in mods will easily run with...

    Why won't anyone race me? Last non-kill = 996 Turbo

    Re: Why won\'t anyone race me? Last non-kill = 996 Turbo Obviously that experience has SEVERELY affected him and I can see his HARSH criticism towards street racing. As far as his other comments on it being worse than child molestation - I think we all know he is just very angry and VENTING...

    Why won't anyone race me? Last non-kill = 996 Turbo

    Re: Why won\'t anyone race me? Last non-kill = 996 Turbo Of course he would feel like crap, I don't like to lose to anything. I know my Viper isn't the fastest car on the road, but I would still feel like sh-t losing to a Vette, Stang, or even a Porsche - even if I would still rather have the...

    CREAMPUFFS????????

    2000 and up Vipers are called creampuffs because: 1- They switched from forged to hypereutetic pistons which can not handle boost or Nitrous as well 2- Although the cam has the same lift and duration, it has 6 degrees less overlap - not as lumpy. Also, due to this cam change, pre-creampuffs...

    Vette for a Viper

    I came to the end of my lease of a 2001 Vette Vert 6 speed on 6/15/04 (also had a 75,92,93,96, and 00) and did not miss it at all. I've had 6 Vettes and never really liked any of them, my wife talks me in to them and then I realize the mistake and get rid of them and lose mega $$$. Besides the...

    Wuss in Z06 wants no part of the Viper on way home today . . .

    I have had mine since 7/12 and my 1st serious race was just at the end of September vs a STOCK 03 Cobra - an easy victory. I told him to pulley down, get exhaust and a CAI and we can try again later. Be careful with Z06s, my buddy has one with just a catback that runs 12.4@116 and with Nitrous...

    Another new guy question

    I traded in my DAILY DRIVER 03 Cobra for my NEW DAILY DRIVER 01 Viper GTS with NO COMPLAINTS. It is a FINE daily driver as long as you don't paln on driving in the SNOW. Now my Supercharged 92 Mustang is not what I consider a TRUE daily driver (fats and skinnies, no sway bar, no a/c), but it...

    How much for an '02 Yellow GTS?

    Re: How much for an \'02 Yellow GTS? I bought my 01 GTS (bumblebee) with 7K on the odo for $52000 from a dealer. I added an additional 4 years & 43K miles to the warranty from the date of my purchase for $1780. So for under $54000 I have a perfect car with a warranty up to 50K. To give...
