    C&D SRT review: uninspiring....

    I'm not sure how excited I am to spend a bunch of additional $$ for an SRT-10 vs. a Gen II RT/10 given the similarity in performance numbers, and especially given the blander styling of the SRT. Here's a comparison of the SRT performance numbers from the November 2002 C&D review vs. performance...

    A thought to ponder (SRT vs. GT-40 and price related stuff)

    The "Price announced on SRT-10" thread got me to thinking, especially a comment made by Snakester. I was contending that with MSRP of $83K for the SRT, the GT-40 starts looking like an ever-more-attractive alternative (Ford claiming/hinting MSRP < $100K). Snakester said something like...

    Nice To The Ford...

    Oh, no!!!!!!! Now there's a post on some Mustang web site about how this guy killed a grey Viper in Minnesota!!!! I have to admit, you have admirable restraint, especially since the GF was egging you on. BTW, you'll need more than Corsa catbacks to out-decibel most modified Mustangs. At least...

    Tested the theory that Corvette owners don't wave....

    Tested the theory that Corvette owners don\'t wave.... I was on my way just now to the grocery store, and I saw a C5 approaching. We were going opposite ways and both came to a stop sign at the same time. I waved and got an eager wave back. Two blocks later, same thing with another C5 (both...

    WHO, at Viper Magazine doesn't know how to count???

    Re: WHO, at Viper Magazine doesn\'t know how to count??? Details. Some people are so fussy. Though, if you think about it, the 1992 was first sold in, what, September 1991? So technically the Viper turned 10 in September and will turn 11 this September. The cover of the mag doesn't say...

    So what's the latest on 2003 color choices?

    So what\'s the latest on 2003 color choices? I'm seeing references in other threads to the fact that the lovers of black have gotten their way for 2003. However, I have not seen any official confirmation of this fact. In fact, Joe and others seem to have gone out of their way to make the...

    Poll on SRT styling

    Disclaimer: Those who want to see only positive things said about the SRT should move along and read a different thread.... I posted a poll over on the Corvette Forum Off Topic section yesterday concerning the new Viper styling. As of just under 24 hrs later, there are 128 votes and 44...

    Cigarette lighter dead...possible causes?

    Everything else electrical seems to be working, so I doubt it's a fuse. Which fuse does the lighter map to, by the way? It doesn't say on the fuse box cover, and I have no service manual.... Anyway, any ideas on what the problem could be? P.S., I discovered this when I went to plug in my...

    Just got back from the LA Auto Show where I saw the SRT....

    I went in with the words that several have said on my mind: "The car looks better in person." I was seriously hoping that would be true, because from what I've seen in the photos to date, I think the styling is a step backwards. Obviously that's my personal opinion.... So, with great...

    Testimony to 2 great years with Viper community (long & mushy)

    I didn't make a new year's resolution again this year ( ), but if I had, it would've been to praise those who did good things for me as vociferously as I complain about those who didn't. It's always easy to criticize when things go poorly, but we often don't take the time to say thanks when...

    Will the SRT-10 be at the LA Auto Show?

    Does anyone know for sure one way or the other whether the SRT-10 will be at the upcoming LA Auto Show? I am very eager to see this car before buying one....

    New Viper Commercial

    I just saw a commercial on TV that featured some red Vipers spinning around in 360's and flying through the air. Anyone else see this commercial? I only caught a glimpse of it and the audio was off since I was at a family event. Anyway, looked pretty cool. I'll have to try that spinning...

    How will SRT-10's be distributed to dealers?

    How will SRT-10\'s be distributed to dealers? Will dealer allocations for 2003's be based on number of confirmed orders with certs that the dealers receive in Jan/Feb? Or will allocations be based on past sales and other "usual" factors for determining allotment?

    Any electronic pix of the 2002 blue ACR being raffled?

    I poked around viperclub.org and couldn't find any mention of the upcoming raffle. I'd love to see some pix on-line. Anyone?

    Looks like I'm SOL on getting a 2003 Viper

    Looks like I\'m SOL on getting a 2003 Viper For some reason the VIN of my 2001 was not accepted by the 2003vgx web site. I called the 877 number and after half an hour finally managed to get through and not have my call dropped. The person I spoke to confirmed that I don't have a valid VIN...

    What is the official name for the blue Viper color?

    No doubt this question has been asked and answered a thousand times on here, but I couldn't seem to find the answer in any of the archives. So, what is the official name of the blue color on the '96 and '97 GTS's? Also, is there a specification number for this color? I got an e-mail from...

    I'm becoming less mature with age (fun video from CA Speedway drags)

    I\'m becoming less mature with age (fun video from CA Speedway drags) They opened up the new drag strip here in Socal at the California Speedway site in Fontana. I went out on Saturday for a few runs and discovered that the track needs a lot more rubber to be laid down before it will ever let...

    Big Bear Hit-and-Run

    Frank, That really sucks. I feel for you. I can only imaging how down I would be if I were in your shoes right now. I'm glad that it looks like the jerk who hit you will get what he deserves in the end, though. Hang in there!

    Anybody going to Fontana this weekend?

    This is the last weekend for the Street Legal drags at the California Speedway this year. Anyone going? I'll be there on Sunday. On the off chance that there is anyone left in Socal who still drag races and is going Sunday, let me know, and perhaps we can caravan up, depending on where you're...

    Best 1/4 mile times

    Check out this site (search on Viper): www.dragtimes.com You'll get a pretty good idea of what times are possible, and modifications are listed. Bottom line is stock Gen II car with a good driver and good track conditions: high 11's. Add slicks and a few bolt-ons: low to mid 11's. Not...

    1999+ creampuffs vs. 1996-1998 muscle vipers: post your dyno results

    It seems some previous posts (e.g., "How not to run a 550") incited the recent "2000 Vipers are no creampuffs" thread. In the latter, there is much anecdotal discussion both ways, no offense intended to those who claim that based on driving both, they can discern a difference one way or the...
