    I was told by CCW that the SP500 was not available for the Viper due to the 6 lug configuration.

    08 viper vs stock ford gt?

    I'm sure you did pick up some HP with the exhaust...the stock piece is pretty restrictive.:2tu: Hey! just noticed your avatar...that black w/o stripes is sweet. Ours is red w/o the stripe.

    Paint shop mucked up my Viper.......

    No,it was not....that's what has me perplexed. The shop came highly recommended by some friends of mine that had used them for several high end cars.

    Paint shop mucked up my Viper.......

    Due to vandalism,I had to get my Viper repainted. When shopping for a good shop,the first thing I told everyone was I wanted it to look like it had never been painted....which meant no orange peel & no trash. Well,the car has neither,but it does have a buttload of places in the paint where it...

    Traded C6 for an 04 Viper

    I recently traded an 06 Z06 for an 06 Viper Coupe........I wanted to do it ever since the Gen3 coupe came out,but it would have cost me about $20k. I actually gave my 15k mile Z06 & only $6k for my 2k mile Viper.

    At 4000 rpm in second before she hooks up?

    Being a mid engine does indeed help traction somewhat....but the bigger factor is gas pedal modulation....and slipping the clutch. Just keep practicing.....you'll get it!

    At 4000 rpm in second before she hooks up?

    Don't get me wrong.....the PS2's are great when it's warm,but they do drop off in grip when it's cold more than any other tire I've ever used. The PS2's even have a warning label stating something to that effect.

    $3,500 for your OEM 5 spoke wheels/tires

    These wheels were not the 5 spokes...the Razors have a mixed review at best.I'll be shocked if anyone will sell you a "mint" set of 5 spokes with as new tires for $3500.00 Good luck to you,I'd go ahead & give Hennessey a deposit for the next set he gets were I you.

    At 4000 rpm in second before she hooks up?

    What kind of tires are you running? I know the PS2's suck when the temps below 50......We have an 800HP Ford GT and don't have the problems you describe....I did however have the exact same problem with my previous daily driver(Z06),but it was because of the tires....PS2's. Good luck and be...

    Another cosmetic problem on my 08

    The rocker panels on my 06 Viper look like crap after 6k miles... We also have a Ford GT & after 3k miles the rockers still look factory fresh..go figure.

    Aftermarket shifter & warranty issues??

    Hi all, An aftermarket shifter has always been one of the first mods on all my cars....just out of curiousity I called my local Dodge dealer to get their stand on aftermarket parts & warranty. They said they didn't know if it would affect the warranty if I had a tranny problem,and gave me...

    Wheel hop.......

    I just got an 06 & the wheel hop is the worst I've ever experienced.I had a CTS-V & they were famous for their wheel hop,but this is much worse. It's so bad that when it starts it knocks the tranny out of gear:crazy2: I'm not talking about dropping the clutch in 1st gear,I haven't done that...

    06 Z06 vs. SRT

    In case some here don't know,Jamie is the first guy to put a stock Z06 on stock rubber into the 10's.......he knows of what he speaks. I'm a novice racer at best & I ran an 11.51 my first time down the track in the Z06. I doubt my Viper will fare as well,but I'll sure have fun trying. I just...

    This car is freakin awesome!!!!

    I'm a fan of all performance cars.....I don't pledge allegiance to any brand. I'm still a member of the Corvette Forum,but I don't dare bring it up over there...and I find that pathetic:rolleyes: According to those guys,if it isn't GM,it's garbage...what a way to live your life:(

    Z06 vs Viper for Daily driver......

    It's funny this should come up.......I've been using an 06 Z06 as a daily driver for the past 2 years & traded it last Friday for an 06 Viper coupe. No regrets,I like my cars a little raw:drive: The Corvette is defenitely more comfortable,but I didn't buy either for comfort. The guy I use...

    This car is freakin awesome!!!!

    Hey guys,just got my new to me 06 coupe this past Friday....I came from an 06 Z06 & I couldn't be happier.The Vette is a great car,but the Viper makes you feel more connected than the Z06 ever did.The feedback on the steering is the best I've ever driven outside of our Ford GT. The power is...

    Will 06 Viper play MP3's?

    I'm going to pick up my Viper 300 miles away this Saturday & was curious as to whether the radio is MP3 compatible.If not,I can transfer back to regular CD's if necessary.
