    RT/10 at age 21 too early?

    Some thoughts: 1) Wait, the prices will be lower next year. 2) Get more girls with Corvette. 3) Best to get girls is a HD motorcycle PERIOD! 4) In PA, Viper will not go in snow, however, I met a guy who skiied at Seven Springs from Bethesda MD and owned ONLY a 94 RT10. He NEVER put the rear...

    New Devlopment for Vipers

    The "fuse" is supposed to be the drive shaft. Look at heavy trucks and equipment. As far as rather breaking a diff or trans over a 1/2 shaft doesn't make sense to me.

    What is the best way to acheive 600 RWHP with a Viper ?

    The "best" way is to do it NA in my book. You eliminate a lot of "stuff" under the hood. However, not everyone is capable of pulling those numbers off with nice streetability. Let's face it, if it were simple, then people wouldn't waste their time with "adders!" Yes, I hate it when they say...

    Quaife Differential - Opinions Please

    Do a search on TrueTrac and Quaiffe and you will get an education. It appears the TT and Q are pretty much the same. Both are a gear type and have no frictional components. This is a BIG ISSUE with the 4WD crowd!

    Recommendation for new heavy duty shafts needed

    Isn't there supposed to be a "new" shaft out there that does not "lock" the suspension under load?

    Vipers Own the 1 Mile!!

    Don't forget that Cd is proportional to stagnation pressure. At 200 mph, the HP required for an additional 1 mph is quite large.

    DLM III+ first impression

    Sounds great on paper, but I drove a NA 600 rwhp Viper in SoFla and it was the most frustrating thing I ever did. And I was out around Lion Country Safari which is basically the Outback of FL. Simply no where to enjoy the power. Too much traffic, too many cops. VERY frustrating and...

    Adjustable front sway bar .......is it worth it ?????????

    Someone needs to manufacture a REMOTELY adjustable rear bar. Rally guys (and M3 guys I believe too) are able to adjust their rear bars while driving. This is done by rotating the "flat blades" which are the "arms" of the sway bar.

    Here's how we eliminate idle hang when needed....

    Re: Here\'s how we eliminate idle hang when needed.... I have one clue to add, my 96 GTS (Skiles Bad Viper) hangs very noticeably around 9000' altitude. Back at 5-6000' it doesn't do it. Go figure.

    Why Vipers don't handle well?

    Re: Why Vipers don\'t handle well? Lateral G's are misleading. I borrowed an 84 Corvette from a friend (it was a beater) which had the "go-kart" Z51 suspension. Taking it easy, I was doing power slides with this car. It was so easy to control. That kind of cavalier behavior with a Viper and...
