    So Has Anyone Ever Gotten Caught In The Snow With Their Viper?

    ask Kenny, he loves driving in the snow! personally I just can't do it, too much cleaning afterwards and potential collisions with other wing dings, but apparently the car is decent in the snow from what I have read, who woulda thought?

    Does a Front "Chin Guard " really help ??

    Re: Does a Front Fas-Rack factory painted blue/white on mine and has saved my butt many-a-time. Crank on an approach and the metal tines take the brunt of the force and shoot it over the entire fascia evenly in my book. Much better than dragging and potentially tearing whatever spot happens...

    2005 CORVETTE

    spent over an hour looking at it with my C5 buddies at NAIAS last week. overall I like the car other than the front end, the fixed headlight conjure up too many images other than corvette, and the smirking front spoiler reminds of Nemo gasping for air on the dentist's table. other than that, I...

    I Bought a Viper Today!

    good advice Ray. most of the fluids take less time to change the time to get the car in the air, no joke. (and maybe the rims off in the case of brake fluid swap) and comfort in knowing things are done right and with the correct oil if you do not have a competent dealer in your area. how far...

    question about GTS cabin heat

    go Commado Ken, anything else is a moot point. Crank those crotch vents to full pop and enjoy!! haha, cats make a huge difference, night and day, give it a shot and enjoy the extra power and better sound as side benefits.

    I Bought a Viper Today!

    Congrats man, Perfect year choice, bias intended! Consider dropping the front fascia bolt that punctures the front fascia resoivor. One bad bump or approach angle and it's toast. PITA to change, fascia has to come off. Other than that good year, make sure all the TSBs are done for 97...

    Any suggestion for Cancun?

    Must hit the foam parties at Tequila Boom, Daddy O and Daddy Rocks. If your into R and R Cancun is not the place to go, although the time of year plays into that. Had the police after us after meeting some girls and going back to the Costa Real, the girls we're staying there. No visitors...

    Has anyone Catless removed their side sill insulation?

    Hey Gerald and gang, I pulled my ratty insulation on a Roe Oval install that was ceramic coated inside and out from header to tails (including cat), as well as POR15 treated the inside of the sill. Running without the insulation and that setup I toasted the sills on both side to a yellow in 1...

    First Time Owner / Anything I Should Know?

    Sweetness Bolax, Nice year and model buddy! Had to do the Blue White myself but other than that spot on.haha 97 is a good year, sorted the car out a little bit by then, little trim diffs compared to 96 (window to door moldings), stripe difference, etc. Seems 97 have some rear main seal leaking...

    Start it or let it sit???

    Hey Tim, I let mine sit for the winter months personally, the stress of starting the car, possible wear and tear on the interior (crack the seats when sitting in them, console, etc.). I just let mine sit until we creep back into 40,50 range and then give her the once over when things are a...

    My Side sills are burned !

    yep, yep, heat is not the factor there. they yellow up when it's heat induced. I toasted them on my Blue GTS after one day at the track. do a search and you'll find all sorts of tricks. including POR15ing the inside of the sills, ceramic coating the inside and outside of the exhaust...

    12 years of VIPERin,and this has never happened,till today!!

    nothing beats cruising with other Vipers. 4-6 is a nice mix, after 10 it's hard to convoy with the lights and all. Still a blast however...... A lap of Michigan International Speedway with a hundred other Vipers was something!

    Couple of questions from a new guy.

    I'd shoot to Vegas and rent a Viper for 4 hours, couple of hundred of bucks. Try rent-a-vette just off the strip, they have clean straight cars. Be forewarned after flogging a Viper up in the mountains I had one in my garage shortly thereafter!!haha

    Doug Roose's GTS... (PICS)

    Re: Doug Roose\'s GTS... (PICS) Bad-azz yes, different with the lack of stripes on a Blue, yes. I like all the shots, except a the dead front shot looks a little nakkkkkid to me minus the stripes, but that's from years of waxing stripes I guess!!
