    Warranty Question?

    Does running your stock viper on a 1/8 drag strip void any aspect of the warranty?

    Whew! Thanks ViperClub.org - Power Steering Cap

    Whew! I am planning on going to Redline raceway tonight and run my viper on the 1/8 mile track. I'm cleaning up the car, checking the tire pressure, getting everything ready to do some runs. Nothing big - I've got a stock Viper - I'm hoping to run an 8 or maybe just a little under. But to...

    Whew - it finally happened - now I can really enjoy my snake!!

    OK - it finally happened. I got caught in the rain Saturday night. Not just a little sprinkle - but a down pour. I have been very careful to never take my snake out with more than a 0% chance of rain. It's a car which commands such respect. However, the pressures off. Finally I can now...

    HRE wheels - Charcoal??

    Anybody have a picture of the charcoal HRE (547) wheels on a graphite viper? I know polished is a simple choice, but I am considering the charcoal finish to go on my graphite metalic snake. Before I drop down the cash, anyone have a sample?

    Stock half-shaft - should I worry?

    Based on several of the discussions on half-shafts, should I worry about a stock half-shaft on a stock 2002 RT/10 (480 HP) if I am performing drag runs on street tires? I.E. Can I launch consistently with the stock half-shafts with a stock setup without worrying about breaking it?

    Texas no front plate crackdown????

    Have any of you Texas folks heard that the Texas police are suppose to start cracking down on no front plates under the new "blocked" license plate law? I heard something about a $200+ :mad: fine for no front plates... Any substance to this rumor???? :confused:

    OK - First time 1/8 mile times - what do you think?

    WHAT A BLAST!!! I had a great time. Took my first 4 runs ever on a 1/8 mile drag strip. Based on the VCA board and feedback a 8.3 would be a good first time. Here's the scoop: {I can scan the slips if that's "protocol"} I've got a lot to learn about the reaction time. Got to pop the...

    Simple request 1/8 drag time for 2002 RT/10...

    OK - I did a search but really didn't get a straight forward answer. I am planning on hitting a 1/8 mile track this Friday night. I have never drag raced before - so I am new. What can I expect for a decent time with my 2002 RT/10 (Corsa and High-flow cats)? I am assuming something like 8...

    Texas does it again... Hang'em high...

    Texas does it again... Hang\'em high... Texas just passed a points system on our drivers license. It just got a lot more expensive to speed (and for the street racers - especially). Although I agree with the drunk drivers increase (as much as $2,500 per year to just keep your license) - the...

    Dallas Viper Days

    What do I need to be able to run the track during the Dallas Viper Days? The website says that I have to have at a minimum the TMS evaluation. Anybody know the specifics or where I can find the specifics to attend this event??

    Losing power - plugs?

    How often do you change out the plugs on the Viper? I've got about 4,700 miles on it and just today it seemed a bit sluggish. It idles great, but when I got on it, it just kind of hesitated just a bit. It's never done it before. I'm guessing a new set of plugs this weekend maybe. Anyother...

    Looking for video of spin out (May 10th TMS)

    During the Texas Motor Speedway charity event I managed to spin out coming out of turn 4 (highly embarrased) :o The Children's charity was on May 10th at TMS. I have heard that someone has a video of the spin out. Has anyone seen it? If you have can you post a link or let me know where I...

    Stock alarm not arming or disarming?

    My alarm just quit working today. It won't work in my garage - I ran to the store - it worked fine. When I got back home I tried to alarm the car and it just wouldn't alarm. I have two sets of keys - have tried both - now it won't arm at all. Any suggestions? 2002 RT/10.

    Bleeding the brakes - installing new brake lines?

    Where is the best place to get information on bleeding the brakes and installing new brake lines? I've got the Viper service manual and have done a lot of work on cars - just never the brakes. Is it something that I can do safely? Do I need any special tools to change out the brake fluid and...

    It's done....

    It\'s done.... It's complete. I finished installing all my mods this week - piece of cake :laugh: Just a couple little snags - nothing the right tool wouldn't have made a lot easier......... It went great - the illustrated example for the Corsa was fantastic. The random hi-flow cats fit...

    New Corsa and Hi Flow Cat Installation + Brakes

    A couple of quick questions for the "experts" out there. The information provided by this board has been "Fantastic" - Thanks a million. Question 1: High Flow Cats? I just finished putting on the Corsa 3" exhaust + high flow cats. It only took me about 4 hours to cut off the old cats, and...

    Ugh...RT/10 Soft Top

    It was a little difficult the first few times I put it together. Really confusing the first time. However - from my point of view - it's a really sturdy top. In fact, the latches work better than the hard top. I feel really comfortable driving any speed with the soft top on. It's light...

    EBC Green pads - installation after 2K

    I searched the post but didn't really see an answer for my following question.... I am putting on new EBC Green pads (front and back) - do I really need to have the rotors turned after only 2K with stock pads? Or is there an easy way to "prep" the rotors for the EBC greens? Thanks

    Thanks JonB and Everyone for the help......

    I guess I should wait until I've received everything and installed it, but I just had to "publicly" say thanks to JonB and everyone that's helped with advice and suggestions. As a new owner of an 2002 RT-10 I knew I wanted to "enhance" my snake - I just didn't know what made sense. It's a...

    OK - what's the real difference?

    OK - what\'s the real difference? All the advice has been great. I realize that I am stepping out here to ask this question (but honestly - I've searched the archives and read all the opinions - maybe that's why I'm a little confused here). I realize that I am probably opening myself up for...

    Stock RT/10 prepare for racing - questions

    I've only had my RT/10 for a couple of months, but want to prepare to do some racing in the next month or so. A few questions for those of you who have already been there, done that. First of all - I want to stay pretty much stock and KIS (keep it simple). I plan on driving the Viper for a...

    Proud Owner of a New 2002 Graphite RT-10

    I've been reading the boards for a few days.  I just got my new 2002 Graphite RT-10 in late November.  I picked it up with 20 miles on the odometer .   Man do I LOVE Vipers!!!!!   I have always wanted a corvette.  I thought they were real cool - and, of course, all American.  But then I...
