    Unallocated Gen 5 Vipers for Sale

    Is there any word yet as to how long it will be before the general public will be able to buy the new Viper? Sounds like the first years production is all spoken for in advance. Are we looking at end of 2013 before cars will be available or beyond? :drive:

    Buy a NEW 2002 RT/10 or a USED GTS?

    One of my best buddies is seriously looking at buying a factory dealer surplus stock RT/10 new. It will be registered as a 2004 car but is actually a 2002 converted by Chrysler into RHD in Australia. He wanted a GTS but the last one sold. He wants to know about the hardtop - does it leak? It...

    Changing Wheel Offsets

    Ignoring for a moment the obvious re-engineering issues - say we could change the wheel offsets in the Viper from almost flush mounted to deep dish wheels and everything in between - while keeping the same contact patch and same track width. Questions: 1 - What changes would occur to the...

    VEC2 RELATED TUNING ISSUE

    There has been some excellent dialogue on the "How Much Timing Can A NA Viper Take?" where an issue surfaced surrounding problems some people are having with VEC2 equipped Vipers. This is not a criticism or necessarily even a fault with the VEC2 itself - but a problem that some cars are...

    RMS WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY SCAM

    The real liar has been protected and RMS took the wrap. Neither Scott at RMS nor Viper23 are guilty of any attempt to defraud fellow members. It's not my battle so I'm out - but I want to say how sorry I am that I took the bait and made the allegation I did against RMS - and I want to make...

    RMS is the Header Scammer not Viper23

    There's a cloud hanging over both Viper23 and RMS run by Scott in Colorado. I say one should be cleared and the other should take the responsibility. That is my opinion so I'll be the one to say it. I say that Viper23 1 - Did NOT know that the header deal he was offered would not be...

    QUERY FOR PROPELLER HEADS - Driveline Loss - What If?

    I've never quite been able to get a handle on how to calculate drivetrain losses because it seems just as soon as you adopt a formula - exceptions to it become the rule. Most of us seem to adopt a simple percentage loss to calulate flywheel hp from rwhp or vice verser. The percentages used...
