    No Lightning Lap for C&D yet this year??? Viper TA!!!??

    I thought Car and Driver Lightning Lap was usually published early in the year. Wanna see how the TA did compared to some of the previous year lap times, etc... of course the track can change, conditions change daily but still neat to see the lap times despite the potential conditions, etc...

    can you heal and toe in your viper with street shoes?

    I raced a Honda S2000 for 3 years and the pedals are perfect for heal and toe whether in street shoes or track shoes..... in my 2009 ACR, either the pedals are too close or the fact that I bump my knee into the wheel.....I even moved the tilt part all the way up and I still hit it. I have not...

    2009 ACR at Maple Grove today

    i only got 3 runs... place was way too crowded with racers.. and it wasn't nearly as warm as i was expecting so after sitting for 2 hours my quick burnout didn't warm up the sport cups.... first run was 2.135 60' with 11.954ET @ 125.32 (banging 3rd gear rev limiter)... second run about the same...

    ACR Guys with 275/35 fronts & 345/30 rear Michelin Super Sports... opintions please.

    the fronts are 20mm narrower than stock but i am guessing with my typical street driving i won't notice. I can't drive on Sport Cups on days like today (low 20's in AM and going up to 30's but with some rain)... just wanted to get some feedback from ACR guys running this combo...

    08 ACR Viper still King of *normal* production cars for Lightning Lap in Car & Driver

    Lightning Lap is in the Feb 2013 Car and Driver.. despite all the talk of the 2013 Viper vs ZR1, the lightning lap is in there too.......... The 2008 ACR is still the 2nd fastest overall car, losing only to a Mosler MT900S (i personally have no idea where you buy one of those). Track...

    Anyone get new Car & Driver? has Lightning Lap (saw at grocery store)

    ACR Viper is still the king (besides that goofy Mosler) of the Lightning Lap. I think the 2012 ZR1 (which i assume was on similar tires to the ACR..???) was about 2 seconds slower. I didn't get mine in the mail yet. :( I hate when they make it to the stores before my mailman finishes...

    nurbergring sticker on driver side roof panel on 09 ACR.

    Not sure if every ACR comes with that goofy little nurbergring sticker 7.22.X (i think)..... i assume the 2010's have a similar sticker with the faster time..???? I doubt 08's had it.. was it a factory thing or a dealer thing? I pealed mine off... Just curious...

    how to slightly adjust KW suspenion on my 09 ACR? (flame suit on)...

    is there a thread that can explain how I make my suspension just a few clicks stiffer? I paid the local race shop to align it and set the suspension where they felt would be good but it seems a little soft now. I just want to make it slightly stiffer but am too dumb. I am not sure I got all...

    someone just got a deal on an 09 ACR from Baxter - it was on ebay sold for $81,099 -

    it was a grey with 2 red stripes down middle 09 with 50 miles on it... i assume it was considered new since that is where i just got my 09 about 6 months ago. anyone from the board buy it? kinda makes the value of a used one seem not so great. ahahahaha.. :( :D
