    pics of 2006 slate gray with silver stripes?

    Folks - I am looking at a slate gray convert with silver stipes. I think I'll really like the color but I've never seen one in person. Anyone out there have a similar color combo? I need to make a decision tomorrow. thanks in advance - Jay Connelly

    Why do nice cars end up at Auction?

    Does anyone know why a nice car (like a Viper or 911TT) would end up at an auction? Seems to me that if the car was up-and-up a dealer would pick it up? Should I be concerned about buying a used Viper/911TT/Lambo if carfax tells me it was at an auction? Some of these have been there twice...

    Fun at the racetrack - caught on camera:-)

    Madman - The way you described (toe on the throttle, heel on the brake) seemed like a very unnatural feat for me. I tried it once early on and abandonned it. I have been MUCH more successful with the balls of my feet on the brakes and slamming my heel on the gas. Since the footwell is already...

    Fun at the racetrack - caught on camera:-)

    I do a 5->2 shift going into the chicane at Portland International Raceway. The 2 things that really made it work for me: 1. Turn 1 is really a throw away becase turn 2 comes up so fast. That means that I totally sacrifice turn 1 in favor of longer on the straight and setting up for turn 2...

    NayKid Racing Looks to Overcome Weight Penalty with Strong SCCA Runoffs

    Cindy and Scotty B - Best of luck to you. You guys rock and the cars rock. It really sucks to change the rules so close to the finish. I know you guys worked really hard - but - wouldn't it be cool if you won even carrying an extra 140 lbs :) Probably doesn't matter in the long run...

    Weight difference, stock wheels/tires vs SSRs/Sport Cups

    Thanks for taking the time to weigh and post the results. I have wondered myself. In terms of lowering, I am really happy with the Moton club sports. I had them corner balanced at their track height - which is when I needed the finest tuning. After the track, I relax the rebound, relax the...

    Did they announce the 2008 Viper?

    I got some interesting info from a credible source today. She said she'd give me the full story over a beer but in a nutshell: 1. She said I REALLY wanted one 2. She recommended that I buy a used one now to get me by for the next year and a half. Drats :( j

    Did they announce the 2008 Viper?

    thanks guys. Looking forward to an update as soon as possible. I crashed my '05 and now I'm in limbo until I hear what happens with the 08 model. j

    are all slate grey vipers "pearl"?

    Re: are all slate grey vipers \"pearl\"? Thanks. This helps. Another silly question - is it a new for 06 color or was it out in 05?

    are all slate grey vipers "pearl"?

    are all slate grey vipers \"pearl\"? I saw a really cool slate grey pearl viper on a local lot. Unfortunately, the sales people did not know if all slate grey SRT10s were "pearl" or if that was an addition on top of the slate grey. They charged $600 for the paint. Anyone know if all slate...

    thanks. Sounds like I need to grab another gen3 for a while and then make a call later once the gen4 is out. cheers - j

    Viper is still the best car for my money...

    thanks jon. I know the ones on my '05 were really heavy. I'll probably get the H wheels anyway since I like them better but if they save weght too, I may even be able to rationalize the extra $$. j

    Viper is still the best car for my money...

    the plot thickens. I saw the new pearl grey car and it was awesome looking. I had pretty much decided on a used black one ('04 or '05). That way, I could add the Quaife (first mod) and the motons + Vec I took off my '95. Now I am confused again - oh well. j

    Viper is still the best car for my money...

    First the sad news: I crashed my '05 roadster a couple of weeks ago. Totalled :( Now the interesting news: I think I'll end up getting another Viper (this will be my 3rd). I have to admit - based partially on some of the ragging from this board over the past year, I was starting to lose...

    Vec2 Installation instructions for Gen3?

    Well - I made the plunge and picked up the Vec2. I have not yet gotten the card burner but I expect to shortly. Curious - do any of you have instructions for installation on a Gen3? The ones that came with it were for Gen1 and the VEC already has the gen3 harnesses. I just have 4 extra wires...

    Track question, SRT10 coupe vs GTS

    I had a 99 GTS for 6 years (40 track days) and was very competitive at the track (archer suspensin, roller rockers, [******] exhaust, braided lines, unichip...). Dyno'd at 450 rear wheels. I have had my SRT (motons, flywheel, K&N) for 1 year (4 track days) and I am still not as fast. The...

    never ending questions.....

    When I put the 3.55 gears in my 99 GTS, it had a whine under deceleration - kind of like a big truck. I talked to my mechanic (Ken Klickman @ timerline dodge) and he told me that there was going to be some whine but he could "adjust" under what conditions it happened (decelleration, idle or...

    Need Help on Gear Ratio

    Agreed with Volltage. I went with the 3.55s and have been REALLY happy.

    silly vec2 question..

    I am looking at buying a Vec2. Do I need to also get a smart card burner or can I use my computer to tuen and download the program? Does it come with a basic card? If so, when I put the card in, would it over-ride any settings I download? Then when I pull the card out, would it revert to my...

    K&N intake - is it better than stock?

    Bob - Congrats on the coupe. I believe the K&Ns add about 10-12 rwhp. When I first installed mine on my roadster, I actually lost horsepower because one of the holes was not as large as the stock one. Once I drilled it out, I noticed faster response and easier wheel spin. I have not had...
