    Fuel injector cleaner-good idea?

    Auto Zone guy yesterday talked me into buying a can of fuel injector cleaner suggesting that my 01 GTS (18,000 miles) probably could use a can by now. I searched the threads and found no one suggesting one way or the other. I've got no engine issues..always use 93. If it ain't broke don't...

    Viper Made her cry

    This is a new one for me. My wife and I were out for dinner Saturday night and she wanted to take the Viper. Beautiful early evening and although I hadn't washed the GTS in a while a quick dust-off and she looked pretty good. Following a great Thai meal we went to a nice commons type upscale...

    So I blew the clutch at 130+

    It's the last of 4 heats on Track Day, Saturday at No Problem Raceway, the SRT-4 Nationals in Gonzales LA...just outside New Orleans. Pemberton invited me to bring the Viper under pain of being called a Wus, so I'm there. What a great event! I'm pretty pleased with my performance on street tires...

    GTS-R wins in German 24

    I just caught the last few minutes on ESPN of a German 24 hour race as the GTS-R blew off the competition. I'm not sure if this was an old race just a rebroadcast. I admit smiling as the announcer worried about the "safety of the slow Porsches" because the Viper is just so fast." Paul
