    My SSG 08 Woodhouse buying experience.

    I agree with every word you said Les and will add that Mark Jorgensen, Woodhouse's Service Manager, is Bills equivalent in his area.

    More powerful Viper? No, NOT the 2008!

    The ZR1 may better the ACR slightly in 0 - 60 and 1/4 mile partly because it will launch better with it's active suspension system (it will squat at launch... therefore less wheel hop) and power/weight, BUT, with the unfavorable weight distribution (nose heavy 52/48) the ACR will kick its butt...

    Poly mounts and excess engine vibration

    I have the same motor and tranny mounts and no vibration here. Of course, the whole car now rocks back and forth at idle ('97 GTS) instead of the engine but I like it and it made a significant difference at the track.

    Am I the only one?

    It seems that Dodge, when it comes to racing, is more interested in the road course than the drag strip which is fine by me. On the road course, RWD is the ticket. That's not to say that there isn't a role for AWD somewhere... on the street,? in the snow? It would certainly add complexity and...

    If the new ACR makes 1,500 lbs of dowfroce at 150 mph . . .

    LOL! I'm trying to lobby for a lower class out of self interests!

    If the new ACR makes 1,500 lbs of dowfroce at 150 mph . . .

    I wonder what the down force is at a more common cornering speed of about 80mph. Tom Sessions mentioned to me that they were going to have to alter all the classifications at Viper Days due to the 2008's but he didn't mention the ACR. The previous ACR didn't have its own class but the new one...

    08 Made 546 rwhp

    I would be surprised if headers and exhaust will produce more than about 30 hp... it looks like that's about what JH got also. I don't know how MOPAR got 675 but it had to be more than the above. Did they change the compression ratio or did lighter pistons, etc. lead to higher redline and...

    08 Made 546 rwhp

    Has this engine been tested yet (SAE) officially like the Gen 3 was when it was rated at 510 instead of 500 hp (factory claim)? I do not think it is a stretch, in that context, to think these engines are putting out 620 instead of 600 claimed hp. Most manufacturers these days underrate them...

    08 Made 546 rwhp

    Figuring a MINIMUM of 12% driveline loss that's 620 hp at the flywheel. Way to go Dodge! :2tu:

    I want to LOSE!!

    Let's face it, the ACR is a hybrid...by that I mean halfway between a street car and a track (road racing) car. It's purpose is to have a car you can drive to and from the track. While I would be willing to pay more for a car with carbon fiber panels, etc., I'm sure there is not a big enough...

    Ummm.... stripe only available in red for red two tone cars and black cars. Now, can you put a red stripe on that black car please?

    Will the timer be installed free with the hardcore package?

    Official ACR info

    I was already thinking about the CF hood. Does anyone know what the weight savings would be with that?

    Official ACR info

    Well, I have had an ACR on order with Bill P. since earlier this year and I am pumped :headbang: It will have the "hard core" package. I only wish we could have saved more weight than 80 lbs. Options such as lighter race seats with harnasses, carbon fiber panels, lexan rear window, etc, would...

    Official ACR info

    Does the car really need better brakes? No weight reduction or power increase?

    I just posted my AUTOMATIC Viper for sale...

    Looks like a great car for the right individual. Good luck with the sale.
