    Gen III Wheels on my GEN II - Questions

    I've found bits and pieces of info on this issue, but if someone in the know could just lay it out for me, that would be great. I've already purchased a set of OEM 10 spoke wheels off an 05 from a fellow VCA member. Looking to put these on my 01 RT/10 w/ the new Michelin PSS's. Here are my...

    Current Diecast at your local store

    Seems to be a lot of diecast out there right now. I purchased all of these within the past month or two (except for the VCA car) at local stores. Gotta love it! VCA Car 1:24 BigTime Muscle

    Ride Makerz Viper model

    Here are few of pix of the "free" Ride Makerz cars they gave away at VOI. By the time we upgraded to RC, added a battery pack, custom wheels, side pipes, engine, sound, etc. it was pretty far from free. Still fun though. The green car was designed by my 13 yr old son, the red one is mine. :D

    No Cameras?

    Final mailing info says no cameras at Chelsea Proving Grounds. Are they gong to enforce that? Not that I feel the need to take a spy photo for Autoweek or something but a few pix of my car at this venue would have been cool. Really? None? :( :usa::usa::usa::usa:

    Leaving Columbus, OH for VOI

    Anyone out there wanting to drive to VOI from the Columbus, OH area Wednesday a.m. feel free to contact me @ [email protected] I've talked to a few fellow VCA members but thought I'd send out this notice to perhaps catch a few more.

    8 Different Jada 1:24 Vipers

    These have finally hit the market. I've yet to see even one at Target, Wal-Mart or anywhere else. Found a dealer on Ebay who was willing to work a pretty good deal for the eight variations. Four colors with two different wheel styles each. Nice quality especially given the price.

    VOI 10 Who's Going?

    So who all is going to VOI 10 from OH? Personally, I'm thrilled it's close enough to drive this year. I've already reserved a room at the Motor City Casino and plan to head north on Wednesday 8/27.

    1:64 HW Tomahawk

    Any of you diecast Viper collectors out there also collect the Hot Wheels Tomahawk motorcycles (Viper engine)? I do. There is a yellow version out at the stores now. They've made something like 4-5 different color variations. I was at a train show (yes, I collect old Lionel trains too) a...

    K-Mart Treasure Hunt Vipers

    Anybody seen these yet? They're all over Ebay. Supposedly, a K-Mart exclusive Hot Wheels Treasure Hunt item. Two Vipers. Anyone have any idea as to how many of each will be produced? Regular treasure hunt and of course, the "Super" Treasure hunt. Thanks,

    Tire Longevity

    While I'm going to wait til spring, an upgrade to PS2's is inevitable for me. Not because my current Pilot Sports are worn, but because they've become hard and slippery with age. With that said, two questions: 1. How long do a brand new set of tires (PS2's in this case) stay soft and provide...

    1 Badd Ride NASCAR Viper??

    Was at Target today and noticed a new series of 1 Badd Ride. They had a Vette, Mustang, Ford GT all painted up like Nascar. Didn't see a Viper. Packaging did not list the cars in the series. Anyone know if they included a Viper in this latest run?

    3.33's did not make my car faster...

    ...from a standing start anyway. Shorter gears are a never ending controversy on this board. I decided to bite the bullet and install 3.33's. I ran 0-60, 80, etc. pre-gears and post gears as tested with a Gtech. Net result is that my times didn't improve at all. More info: I honestly believe...

    AFX 1:64 Vipers - slot cars

    I've tried to stay away from the slot cars but finally broke down and bought the following on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=290148847483&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=019 I figured that if I could add eight new cars to my collection for reasonable $$, why not?

Anyone care to guess how many have been totaled beyond repair? Certainly cars out there driving around with...

    Colored Seat Stitching

    Over the last year or so I've seen a yellow Ferrari and a yellow 911 with black interior and yellow stitching along the edging of the seats. Looked very cool. Had a classy look without being over the top. Anyone done this in a Viper? Any color. I'm considering buying a second set of stock...

    NA Power

    How far has someone taken a GEN II in naturally aspirated form? How far can these motors be pushed without increasing displacement or using power adders? Also, "reasonable" streetability would be desired. Who holds the record out there?
