    Wanted, pics of 'dummy' roof scoops

    Re: Wanted, pics of \'dummy\' roof scoops Nadine, I would look closely at the non functional roof scoop before purchasing; some things look better at a distance... I personally liked the look of the non functional peice until I noticed how fake the air intake looked; it is just a flat black...

    Pic of whole Club getting DPS warning/no front plate

    Actually many Police officers clear more than a $100k a year with their OT as I was told by a local Sheriff at a block party... Not a fortune but kinda' suprising isn't it?? All things concerned i'm glad the cops that i've met are as cool as they were (i've been caught letting it all hang out...

    Punks Messing With Me Tonight, So I Taught Them A Lesson

    Big feet= tight pedal distance between throttle/brake..Solutions?

    Sean Roes recipe sounds like the fix for your problem; Adjust the gas pedal at the firewall by loosening the (2)7/16" nuts on the fwd side of the firewall and pulling the assembly loose from the adhesive then move it over as far as you can toward the tunnel to obtain clearance.. You can also...

    Going nuts!! Viperdays or no Viperdays

    Got a dilemma; I want to put my wallet away for the rest of the year and drop the flow to a trickle but folks have really pumped up the Viperdays as being a Premier event with the best drivers around to tango with... It would undoubtedly be a ego bruising but the latter has me really wanting...

    Heel and toe seems difficult in the Viper

    First thing I did was take out the pedal adjustment knob and workings then pulled all 3 cables and set them to my most comfortable positions where I could roll my ankle while blipping my tach to the 3.5k rpm level while having the brake in the threshold position.. Then I used Sean Roe's advise...

    I got my Parts Rack Dual Plane wing and pics inside.

    The wing will look great painted or polished.. Since your car is silver a nice touch might be to get the ends only polished then etched with the Viper logo by George... Just a thought.. The splitter and dive plane aero mods as well as wheel upgrades usually start eating at you within a couple...

    Viper's owners worst nightmare

    Re: Viper\'s owners worst nightmare I would get three or more knowledgable opinions and estimates in writing before I pursued... I had similar epoxy repairs done on my car last year and cannot see the damage today.. The unfortunate thing is no matter how much we love our Vipers and we feel...

    How do you protect your Viper at the track?

    There's basically no way to track a car and keep it perfect.. Other drivers will be wearing stickies even if you're not they pick up rock and guess what? yup, windshield repair.. Rubber blobs get into the frontal areas and also bounce of body parts leaving streaks the car gets filthy because...

    Ok people!! I need help

    I'm not into the 1/4m so I don't know the effect on times but have found the wing/splitter and dive plane mod to be beneficial to the cars handling in both elevation drops and high speed cornering.. The looks are well.... kinda..... KILLER!!
