    SRT-10 in New Bruswick NJ

    Was getting out of class, going to a friend's apartment earlier today (Monday May 19th around 2pm), and saw a red srt-10 coming down George Street in the opposite direction as me. Looked awesome, anyone here?

    Anyone interested in Viper Zippo's?

    Re: Anyone interested in Viper Zippo\'s? I had mine made about a month ago. I ended up getting another one with the same engraving on a satin chrome Zippo, which they said would look cleaner than the black ice one I had bought previously. I'll let you know how it looks when I get it. As far...

    Anyone interested in Viper Zippo's?

    Re: Anyone interested in Viper Zippo\'s? I had a friend upload the pics for me. And I don't use digital cameras often, so excuse the quality of pics, and size. You can see them at http://pcsnj.no-ip.com:81/shrink/shawdawg/ . All 5 pics are the lighter, the small pics are actually the...

    Anyone interested in Viper Zippo's?

    Re: Anyone interested in Viper Zippo\'s? I had interest in getting a Viper Zippo as well, and posted about it on the off topic forum a while ago. I ended up not liking anything I saw on eBay, so I had one custom made. The place that made it was www.lightersales.com and I was happy with their...

    New Viper Commercial

    I think I have some kind of psychic power, because I've seen that commercial twice, both time it came on just a few seconds after I opened up the VCA forums. Hmmm... And I guess I'll be the odd ball here, but the commercial wasn't all that great to me. It was nice to see the Viper again on...

    PhilC and GTS Joe 97....Great guys

    Which Joe? Ummm...didn't catch his last name. But his Viper is a 97 Blue/White GTS, with some logos on the front fenders. (StopTech, TeamTech, Archer, and another one I can't remember) If I remember correctly, he said he is on this board as GTS Joe 97, but I could be mistaken on that..maybe...

    PhilC and GTS Joe 97....Great guys

    It all starts out a normal day. Well, not quite normal, my brother and I were running into difficulties installing headers on his camaro. Besides that, just a regular day. Later on in the night, I talk to PhilC online (Red/Silver ACR from NJ). He tells me about a car show that is going on in...

    Finally real bass sound for RT/10

    I am not a Viper owner, but I was just curious as to why everyone seems to put a bass tube in the footwell area. Maybe I'm missing something, but why not put a sealed or ported box in the trunk? You can get fairly small boxes, so I wold imagine you could fit something in there. I must be...

    Riddle Me This Batman.....

    Ben, you are indeed a smart man. The wheel+tire combination will reach the bottom of the hill first, regardless of the length of the hill. The key factor here is the inertia of the center of momentum. A hoop (just a tire) has an inertia of mass X radius^2......a cylinder (wheel and tire) has...

    Riddle Me This Batman.....

    Just saw the last post....The Viper is propelled forward because there is a horizontal force being applied to the bottom of the wheel. The wheel isn't moving at the bottom though, because the force of friction from the tire to the ground is greater than this force of acceleration of the car...

    Riddle Me This Batman.....

    Whether the tire stretches a little or not will not make it have speed. Whether it is stretched or in equilibrium, the tire is contacting the road and not moving. The very bottom point is the only point without speed. If you move a fraction of an inch around the wheel in either direction, the...

    Riddle Me This Batman.....

    0 mph.....learned this in physics just this past semester. THe top of the wheel is going at 70mph, the center of the wheel (and the speed of the car) would be 35mph, and the bottom of the wheel where it contacts the road is 0mph. Doug, the bottom of the wheel would be travelling at 70mph only...

    1994 RT/10 vs. '87 Corvette???

    Re: 1994 RT/10 vs. \'87 Corvette??? Stroker refers to an increase in displacement by lengthening the stroke of the pistons. By having each piston move up and down farther, the displacement of the motor is increased. Boring a motor involves increasing the diameter of the piston to increase...

    Was this you?

    Cool deal, I'll keep an eye out for ya. If one of these days you are feeling charitable, how about you hook me up with a ride? I've been a Viper fan since '92. Seen many, been to many shows, (NAIAS and Zone Rendezvous were cool), but still haven't gotten a ride. Lemme know if you or someone...

    Was this you?

    Silver RT/10 on Garden State Parkway (NJ), mile marker 88 by Lakehurst, about 1:00 PM today (6-19)....I work for the Parkway and always admire any nice cars that go by. Just wanted to see if anyone from here was the one that passed. Since starting work, (last Wednesday), I've seen about 100...

    LPE 540cid Viper

    Anyone have the Lingenfelter 540cid Viper Package? Does it really make 725 flywheel HP? I heard stories of the TNT King Snake falling short of its 777hp mark. What kind of 1/4 mile times can be run with the LPE car? Thanks.

    Schedule for Saturday?

    Nope wasn't me. I was there on Saturday with a friend of mine. I guess nobody realizes this, but I am only 19, going to college majoring in Computer Engineering, just hoping to one day join the ranks of Viper Owners. The event was cool, I did enjoy watching you guys run. BTW, who else loved...

    How expensive is Viper Maintenance?

    Hehe, I just wanted to toss a note in here that this was just too funny. People shouldn't talk about what they don't know about. It's gotta hurt when you have to resort to stupid namecalling after being proven ignorant. I don't know a lot, but I don't chime in saying that I do, so I guess...
