Completely agree. Put the GenV and the Gen4 next to each other. One looks fresh, modern, mean while the other simply looks a bit dated. When I say this, do it in person because pics do not tell the whole story. Just an opinion.
We run 30min sessions here and I have racing pads, so much more heat involved. I am not looking for a super expensive alternative, just a way to use the factory ducts.
I have done some searching, but not finding exactly what I am looking for.
Wondering the options for gen3/4 cars to leverage the cooling ducts. what hose options and duct options at the caliper/rotor?
Also, the CF ducts I have seen are 4" inlets but the ducts at the grille are 3".
So...
are you joking or serious on this one? electrical nannies "that you can turn off" ruin all the fun? LED lighting is a fad? I suspect 10yrs from now, we will have LED lighting or the next improved lighting technology. To me, this would be the equivalent of being upset when they added HID...
Viper not taken on the track???? oh, what a person is missing on what these cars can really do and are designed to do. You will be a better/safer driver on the street, really understand what your car is capable of and then likely get hooked on it (bad part $$$). I recommend anyone buying...
This poll I think is missing the real question, not what you "want" but what would you "buy"? Run it again, put in a best guess for price and ask who is going to buy new in the next two years and see what results we get.
I had a buddy that had a Gen3 Viper for two years before I purchased one. I rode in it as a passenger many times. I thought it was good, but not super excited. Then we started to do some driver training at the track. I was in whatever the school provided and he was in the viper. Then at...
So I hate to bite, but now you have me very confused:
1) Everyone I have met that have actually driven a viper on a track have been super impressed. Can't believe how they handle, can't believe the torque, etc. So, I have a very difficult time believing you have driven a Gen3 or 4 on the...
Obviously, you are hitting a nerve with many folks. You lose a little bit of credibility whey you ask for facts, but have never driven any of the prior gen vipers you are speaking to. There are a couple important facts though to note for the cars:
1) gen3's had 500hp and terrible run-flat...
I can only speak to personal experience, but in 4yrs of tracking a conv gen3, never been passed by a 911S or a GTR and trust me, those are the most common cars at the tracks around here. They will be the first to come up and chat as their thoughts beforehand were Vipers could only go straight...
Exactly, they could sell 4000 and would not be a big deal. Your never going to see one on every corner, it is not going to effect its value and you would hope that a car company wants to sell cars and with a bit better volume, could be more profitable for them.
btw, did not realize vette's...
I am the opposite. Almost convinced myself to get the genV coupe because of that gorgeous rear, but at the end of the day, like JJP11 says above, conv are so much fun. It is hard to imagine being inside a coupe on a nice day as the only days I drive the car is on nice days...
SRT, show us...
Curious, what about it makes you think it looks goofy? I know vipers have a history of having different rears for conv, but I always felt the coupe rears looked better and were more agressive. History on this is not important to me, just the looks. There is some flow from the roof that is...
I am planning to go on the 23rd of July.
btw, you will really enjoy ORP. many turns of different varieties. I wish it was a bit wider and a bit faster, but very fun. Looking forward to checking out the new track.
