    Hazard Lights Flashing

    I went out to the garage this morning to find my Viper's hazard lights flashing? I have not driven it since last Wednesday, and the keys are in a lock box, in a safe? I went and got the keys, and pushed the unlock button, and the car rapidly beeped at me for a second, then the lights kept...

    Bad News My Engine is BROKEN!!

    Roe S/C VEC 2 Sean Roe personal tuning days

    I have mentioned this to Sean Roe, and was wondering if I could drum up enough interest to get him to do something like this. I wonder how many people near the San Francisco Bay Area would be willing to drive to an undetermined facility that has a Dyno-Jet, and have Sean Roe personally dial your...

    Water methanol injection problem

    I took a friend for a quick run in the Roe Supercharged Viper yesterday, and I noticed that when I primed the Water Meth pump, I did not see the green light. So I figured I must have bumped the switch under the dash off or something. So I reached down and pushed the button once, and still...

    OOPS I was wrong about age of tires I bought from JonB

    :rolleyes: :confused: I jumped in on the post about tire buying from JonB, and I thought I was educating people about the age of tires. Well I was wrong. I talked to TireRack today, and they said that the "C1" carcass Michelin Pilot Sport rear tires that I got are superior to the standard...

    Feel sorry for potential raffle car people not going to VOI-8

    I feel sorry for those people that will not get to see the new 2005 raffle car in person. The "VCA NOTES" said there is a video of the awesome paint job on their site, but it is not. So I guess they are teasing us to see it in person in a few days at VOI-8. But what about the people who are not...

    Lethal Sean Roe Engine Pics....Finally done

    I finally got my car back and was able to participate in the Northern California Viper Club 10th Anniversary 2 day party this weekend. It runs so good. The first Tuner I gave it to , must have read the instructions backwards, or not at all. They made so many mistakes. I think most of us doing it...

    New Valve Covers and Polished Intake

    I finally got my own project started using the valve covers from Apex Motorsports. I had the Intake polished, but not plated. Since it is an aluminum casting, they were afraid to plate it. So for now I just put Mothers Mag polish on it, and drove about 300 miles this weekend, and it did not turn...

    I just got my new issue of Car and Driver today, and it is dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the Corvette. I was glancing through the 30 or 40 pages of memorabilia, when all of a sudden in the middle of the magazine on pages 82 and 83 is a 2 page spread ad for the new 2003 Dodge Viper. It is...
