    UGR Supercharged GTS dyno

    I guess I never got around to posting the dyno sheet of my car from our last dyno day. This was on pump gas with water/meth. Underground Racing built 510, JM Stage 3 heads, UGR cam, UGR fuel system, Paxton Novi2500, AEM, etc. I think the car still has a little more in it. We are going to...

    Door actuators won't work on either door

    I can't figure this out. Last night, drove the car to dinner. Everything was fine. Unlocked the doors using the key fob, jumped in, started the car (almost didn't start because I left the lights on and the battery got low), and drove home. Get home, neither door works. No orange light, no...

    Anyone have a set of rear SRT-10 10 spoke wheels they want to sell cheap?

    Looking for a spare set of the 19" 10 spokes for the rear to mount drag radials on (so I don't have to swap street tires and dr's over and over again on the same wheels). They don't have to be pretty. They just need to be straight and hold air. Just the regular finish. Curb rash is fine...

    Look what I got for Christmas

    Not a new Viper, but every bit as cool to me. On December 27th, my wife and I welcomed our first child into the world. He weighed in at 8 lbs, 1.4 oz, and stands an intimidating 20" tall, not including the hair. Let me introduce to you, my son, Paxton. He's just the coolest little...

    Thanks to Viper Parts of America

    When it was announced that Viper Parts of America was going to start offering tires for any vehicle to VCA members, I figured I'd give it a shot. I was due for new tires for my daily driver, so that was a perfect chance to try out this new VCA benefit. AWESOME EXPERIENCE! VPA was very quick...

    Looking for a part; plastic radiator fan flaps

    On my 98 GTS, I have the offset radiator fan with the four (4) hard plastic flaps that run down the passenger side of the fan housing. I am now missing 2 of those hard plastic flaps. I don't know if they can even be purchased anymore because they changed the fan assembly to one with a fan in...

    Thanks, Don @ TireOption!

    Wow. What an incredible buying experience. I had never dealt with Don before, but the reviews on here seemed very positive, so I thought I'd give him a shot. I caught him on AIM late Monday afternoon, introduced myself and asked him for a price quote on a set of new Nitto Invos (275 18 up...

    Anyone have a used rear runflat they can part with?

    I need one (1) rear tire. 345 30 19. Factory runflat is just fine, because that's what the other 3 tires are. Just needs to be in decent shape and reasonably priced. Let me know if you have one you are willing to sell. Thanks, Mark

    First Twin Turbo Gen IV

    Brought to you by Underground Racing: "Here are some pictures of our 08 TT Viper. This is the first one known of that is running with a power adder and full control over the cam and drive by wire throttle bodies. I must say that we are very impressed with the 08 platform after it got the TT...

    Just got my car detailed

    The guy did a GREAT job. I'm very pleased. He took the wheels off, cleaned behind the wheels, cleaned the wheel wells, put the car on a lift and detailed the painted parts underneath the car, etc. He also detailed the interior, cleaned the carpets, and shined up the engine compartment. Very...

    First time at the track with my new UGR setup

    Our track has open test and tune sessions on Wednesday and Friday nights and I'd been dying to get my car to the track, so last night was the night. The track is closer to my office than to my house, so I got up yesterday morning, put on my suit and tie and just drove the Viper to work. I...

    If someone wants to sponsor this forum...

    how would they go about doing so? I know someone who is interested in sponsoring the SRT10 section of this site. Who do they need to talk to and what do they need do to make this happen?

    Huge thanks to Underground Racing

    All I can say is WOW. When I first bought my 1998 GTS, it was bone stock with 12,000 miles. It didn't even have so much as K&N's or smooth tubes. In fact, it still had the original tires on all 4 corners. It was the perfect, pampered car for my first Viper. Within about 3 months, I'd...

    How much do the factory 17" wheels weigh?

    I did a search for this and found a couple of threads that asked the question, but none of them ever ended up giving the answer (for some reason the threads always ended up talking about the weight of the factory 18" wheels). I would like to see if anyone knows what the weight of the factory...

    Best in-car video camera setup?

    I'm looking for a better way to record races than the single camcorder mount. For example, in a drag race, the single rear-facing camcorder is great AFTER you've started putting car lengths on the person next to you, but it doesn't show any side-by-side action or what's going on in front of you...

    404 error: Jon B grumpiness not found

    I called Jon B at Partsrack yesterday to inquire into ordering a new set of rear Kumho V700's for my GTS. He shot me a great price on the pair, already had my information on file in his system, and processed my order in about 20 seconds. Even said he'd try to get them out the door same day...

    10.43 @ 137 Roe only!

    Joe Donovan, owner of Performance By Joe, drove in from St. Louis to Kansas City on Saturday afternoon for the Midwest Shootout at our local track. He called me on Friday afternoon and said he was coming in town, so I quickly registered my Viper for the event. We met at the track on Saturday...

    Bravo -10; Halfshaft - 1

    Well, it was bound to happen. I took the Viper to the track Saturday with the new setup. I wanted to see if the car would run a 10 second pass on the BFG drag radials and pump gas. My first pass right out of the box was a 11.48 with a 1.85 short time. Knowing that they were going to piss and...

    New custom airbox

    I recently got my car back from Joe Donovan at Performance by Joe in St. Louis. He installed the T&D rockers on the car, installed a new clutch, front brakes and a few other miscellaneous items. He also made for me a new custom airbox and a custom catch can (in addition to powder...

    Anyone install a Passport SR7 remote radar/laser detector?

    I'm looking into getting the Passport SR7 remote radar detector with the laser shifters and installing it on my Viper GTS. I was just wondering if anyone had installed one of these in their Viper before. If so, where and how did you mount the front radar antenna and 2 laser shifters? Thanks...

    Heater problem, here, too

    This is not a problem with my car, but a fellow members car (who happens to be out of town on his honeymoon right now). I'd like to see if we can figure out how to fix his heater issue before he gets back. It's a 1993 RT/10. The blower works fine (you can hear the different speeds, etc) but...

    How do these numbers sound?

    I just got done doing some "remote tuning" with Sean Roe this afternoon. The guy just got out of the dentist's office, it's his birthday, he's driving in the pouring rain, and still helped me get my car tuned over the phone. This guy is superhuman. The mods on my 1998 GTS are: K&N...
