    Run flat tire needed

    I've got 2 2004 ZP fronts free for the taking. I'm guessing they don't fit your needs, but if you can make them work, they are yours for the shipping.

    First Track Day with our 2008 - Impressions

    WOW! Are you serious?!? And what do you mean by "carry in excess of 110mph", where in the turn are you saying 110? I'm doing 110 on the 9 - 10 straight, and brake down to about 70 and am back up to 80-90 at exit. I know that is slow, but turn 10 is the only one where I've spun so I'm a bit...

    Any alternative to Michelin Pilot Tires

    Having recently switched run-craps on my 04 for PS2's, I've got to say there is no comparison. The car no longer tram lines and grips WAAAAAAY better on dry and wet surfaces. I know I'm taking a chance on a flat, but I prefer a rare flat over constant zero traction.

    First Track Day with our 2008 - Impressions

    I'm new to this so maybe I don't understand proper speed vs revs. I don't know what the top speed in 4th is because I've never gotten there. But why shift to 5th ever on Summit main unless you've found a way to go well above 140 MPH? I'm doing 80 - 90 MPH coming out of turn 10 in 3rd and...

    First Track Day with our 2008 - Impressions

    Unfortunately, yes. In turns 1, 5, and 6 there is a two foot wide swath that looks like a caterpillar tractor was on the track. I heard that it started falling apart during a NASA event. For Vipers, you can straddle the rough part or swing wide and avoid. Either way you are ending up on a...

    Stock '03 SRT-10 rims, tires, intake, exhaust, hood & more for best offer!

    I'm looking for a pair of rear wheels on the cheap. I plan to use them with my drifting tires so I don't care what they look like. If you don't get a buyer, let me know. I'm in Norfolk frequently, family home is on Willoughby Spit, and can pick them up.

    Are you Don? I'm Dan, '04 black vert yesterday at SP. Assuming you are the guy I met, you're driving in the advanced group and I'm waiting to be moved up. You have more experience than I do, so maybe I just don't know what I'm talking about. Some of what you're saying I agree with, some...

    Great vid, Mike. I assume Elizabeth (hope I got that name right) was the cameraman. If you ever get rid of your Viper, the club gets to keep Elizabeth!

    missing a gear while shifting

    Someone with more knowledge than me can verify, but I'm told that the rev limiter doesn't kick in on a downshift. I've hit the limiter a few times on the track when I got too excited about a pass and then suddenly lost power. No problem. Where I did have a scare is that on my second...

    Very Viper Orange SRT10 just delivered

    WOW! Amazing. I'm never going to look at a color chip again. I hated SSG right up until I saw them being made at CAAP. I just told someone a couple of days ago, no way to orange. Seeing it on a car is a HUGE difference. Very cool and VERY VIPER.

    Is '09 the end of the Viper?

    I've never been in the auto manufacturing biz, but I have been a CFO a nd bought and sold companies. What you're saying makes no sense to me. If I was a Cerebus partner, all I would care about is, does the Viper make me money NOW. Cerebus most likely plans on selling the company within 3...

    Is '09 the end of the Viper?

    All Vipers have a timer built in to the ignition system. Sometime in the latter half of 2009 all Vipers will explode. This is coming from a highly reliable source - ME. And you read it on the Internet, so it must be true.

    VA/MD/DE Crab Feast Cruise – Saturday June 14th – neigboring regions welcomed!

    Good time Worst part: traffic getting across the bridge Most frustrating part: We decided eating crabs is an aerobic activity. You burn more calories mining crab meat than there is in that oh so tasty morsel of goodness Best Part: I met mild mannered Kelly Cobean at FOW for the drive to...

    some not necessarily good ideas to spur other thoughts: NEVRL8 GASGZLR - just to annoy the eco-freaks Since you seem to like the X rated ones, how about these which I'll later regret posting: PUSEGTR PSYGETR - better than the former because you can always claim PSY is the Greek letter...

    New Vipers are not moving??

    I'm not saying you're wrong because I don't know what the expectations were, but what is your basis for saying sales are below expectations? If the factory has been running basicaly full time, all product is sold before it gets built, and production is running into the latter portion of the...

    Give us a starting point. What do you think is so common Viper that you don't want to use it, and what sort of themes do you prefer? If you don't like "SNAKE" because it is too common, does that mean you don't want some clever twist on snakes like "GR8 ASP". GR8 ASP is already in use and VCA...
