    TNT Vipers

    September 7: The other day, Roy sent me three emails. All three clearly stated that he'd call me. Well ... it hasn't happened. Roy has broken his word once again. And again, and again. Not one phone call. Each email stated: my parts would be shipped today, Wednesday. I've heard nothing...

    Doing research for a future purchase. ( Warning: Long Post) Thanks!

    Just so you know, I paid far less than 47. That's too much for me too. I'm talking low 30s. In fact, there are sellers desperate for high 20s. Excellent condition gen-1s. Might take a month or two, but they're out there. I guess if you're unsure, don't do it. And of course don't rush...

    Doing research for a future purchase. ( Warning: Long Post) Thanks!

    For inspiration: check out 'Car and Driver.' The cover has the new yellow Z06. Four new cars are compared: Z06, GT40, Carrera, Viper. The Viper outperforms them all. Hands down. If you become a Viper owner, realize it's not just another straight-line muscle car. Look at how quickly a Viper...

    Doing research for a future purchase. ( Warning: Long Post) Thanks!

    If you want a Viper bad enough, why wait. Buy one! Forget your Mustang. Sell it. I had to settle for a Gen-1 1993 RT. It was the only model year I could afford. But dude -- I love it! It's my favorite all-time Viper. The Gen-1 started the revolution! The Gen-1 RT is a prototype race...

    I called TNT -- no answer, voicemail box full.

    TNT Vipers

    Yeah, I realize most people would probably fly down after one month. Maybe I'm a sucker ... but I hope Roy pulls through and delivers an amazing product. Doug Levin has been a great help. He contacted me this morning out of concern for a fellow Viper owner going through a tough experience...

    TNT Vipers

    Roy - Do you realize how hard I worked for that money? It took me two jobs, one a midnight shift, to buy a 1993 RT and get some performance parts for it. I'm not some rich kid. If I was I'd buy an M3 or Cayenne or Ferrari or something like that. I counted pennies to get my Viper. I bought...

    TNT Vipers

    I just checked my bank receipt: Roy at TNT Vipers took my money on August 5. Since then he's never taken the initiative to call or email or fax me. Not once. He clearly said one week is needed to ship everything. I've absolutely no clue of what's going on. I want to believe that this is...

    Another day gone by. Nothing from TNT Vipers. Not one call. Not one email.

    Penske Coilovers

    If I go with double-adjustable Penske dampers, then I'd go with Hypercoil springs. So what spring length and rate should I choose? I'm going to ask advice from EMI and Heffner. Anyone else have experience, hopefully with a 1993?

    TNT Vipers

    Day 3 - 11:56 AM - I called TNT Vipers. Voicemail answers. Voicemail full. I'm not going to attempt email. I've tried too many times already. No response. I want to believe that Roy has a special reason for this. But unfortunately I've read other VCA forum postings detailing identical...

    Penske Coilovers

    Todd: Thanks. I do want to get it right the first time. So maybe I should spend extra now instead of later. I'll definitely consider it. If I go Penske, I'll go through Heffner's. Thanks again. KWs are nice and well built. No doubt. But I prefer to buy American. And Roger Penske's...

    TNT Vipers

    Well it's another day. I tried to call Roy at TNT Vipers. Each time voicemail answers. And it's full. It's been like that one day now. So I cannot leave Roy a message. I'd just like to ask for five minutes on the phone. To talk about my order. I've waited one month. I've no clue...

    Penske Coilovers

    I never said Penske, Moton and Koni are a waste. I was told Penske shocks on a road car are too excessive. A waste of money. They're made for racing and for those with racing experience. Is there truth to this? I believe so. If your racing, of course Penske is not a waste. Clearly it's...

    Penske Coilovers

    I was told that spending money on new Penske shocks for a road car is too excessive. Bluntly, a waste of money. That they're made for racing and for those with experience. I was also told that Hypercoil makes the best springs in the world. Guaranteed to never sag nor change dynamics like...

    Penske Coilovers

    Do they fit a 1993? Can you email pictures to my address? Are Penske's aluminum shock bodied? Thanks. I'd still like to know how Penske's compare to Koni's? And what about Moton and Snake-Oyl? Are Snake-Oyl reputable? Who builds them? I've never heard of them except for Vipers. Also, I...

    Penske Coilovers

    Does anyone know a good dealer who sells Penske coilovers complete with springs? I've surfed around only to find HRP World. Are there others? Also, are the Penske shocks available for the Viper considered better than the Koni shocks. Anyone have experience with one or the other, or both...

    TNT Vipers

    I tried calling. That equals 30 attempts today. Again no answer. Same wonderful voicemail. Same robo-girl 'This voicemail box is full.' Yeah, so what's new baby ... As for e-mail, I sent about three to four in the past 24 hours. So I've given up on that. My only hope is that Roy takes a...

    TNT Vipers

    Again I just tried to call TNT Vipers at 713.880.0279. The voice mailbox is full! I cannot leave a message. How can they operate as a business? I've called many times in the past five to six hours. Not one answer, just voicemail. This has been the case for the past four weeks, so this...

    TNT Vipers

    I've tried calling TNT Vipers many times but I always get voicemail. No one answers the phone. It's frustrating because I was told by Roy that the parts I ordered would take one week to prepare and ship. Now I'm on week four. One month. And the worst part: He has my money. I'm a jackass...
