    Z06 vs Viper for Daily driver......

    Which year cars are we talking about, GenII, III, IV vipers. What year Z06. Newer Vipers are more comfortable than GenIIs, and a vette is a much better daily driver all around, the newer ones are fast! The vette won't get any attention in a parking lot, which is better for daily driving.

    I will double check it, but I planned on washing it off after. I was going to try it with a 1:1 mix in a spray bottle.

    08 Goes 11.13 today at OSW!!

    we need to get them side by side!:drive: when edmunds did there comparison, the Z06 ran a 12.0 1/4 mile & viper ran a 11.8. some would say those are bad times for both but that is what the conditions warranted (driver, temp, altitude), they said the Viper felt much stronger and faster. Still...

    Roe S/C users: Did you need to upgrade the cooling system?

    98+ have larger fans, I was told by a tech and Jon B that it would be needed to the most out of the radiator. Kind of like adding a s/c and not getting a tune

    Roe S/C users: Did you need to upgrade the cooling system?

    if you get a aluminum radiator, get the lower Tstat, and for a 97gts you will need a new fan kit. I have the Ron davis and upgraded fan. I run at 190* all day long

    Learn to drag race my viper??

    the hardest thing is the launch, my first time at the track I ran a 12.5 @ 117, but my 60' was a bad 2.2. if you get the launch down you will have great times. with a genIII you should be able to shift a little higher in 2nd and 3rd around 5500rpms i would think. make the 3-4 shift as fast as...

    How rare is a 1996 B\W (just for fun)

    I would say to see them on the road is rare for the following 1. many have been wrecked 2. many are stored away 3. the low production numbers of a viper in general

    Help...shop damaged my tires

    the bubble itself is nothing to worry about, that is the rubber compound pulling away from the Plys underneath. the ruuber on the sidewalls is made to protect the sidewalls from being tore (the underneath plys of material) the rubber sidewall actually has no function other than look and your...
