    SRT a brand or a trim level?

    Their trying to establish their own brand just like AMG with Mercedes or M with BMW. Takes time and money to get brand recognition by consumers.

    Anyone track a Gen V at Laguna Seca?

    Didn't remember you owning a viper too. I saw you grid a few times but we never got close. I kept coming out late and had to navigate around all those s2000's Crowed but fun, long tow for me but I want to get back there, Going to visit my folks in Houston for the holiday's so I'll miss that...

    Track day video Buttonwillow

    THX, luckily I ran CW 13 before. Great track but harder to pass than Willow or CA Speedway and during that session kept getting bottled up. I think they made 3 red/silver in '08, two more in '09? this is a clone, started as a red/black couple, re-stripped and tapered in silver, added the...

    Track day video Buttonwillow

    Hadn't been to ButtonWillow in nearly 5 years, first an only time was the inaugural NARRA event and only ran 1 day due to rain. Track is real fun, but there were a ton of cars there and lot's of off-roading. When cars go off blinding dust everywhere. Only had the go-pro on for 1 last session...

    Anyone track a Gen V at Laguna Seca?

    Redsled, great video, do like the view from both. I should have reached out when I went to BW on the 20th, figured it out but had a learning curve. I'll post a track video with two offs here and on the alley Mike

    I remember when I posted an add for a Viper for sale in the classifieds.....

    Tim, it seems like hit or miss when posting an ad here. On the alley the ad goes up as soon as you hit enter. Not sure if its' bandwidth of the vca moderators or just caution to not allow instant posts?? GKWS Mike

    Hennessey Venon 700R

    George, has to be a flywheel claim, no way at the rear wheels. Take a G IV, add headers/exhaust, port the intake and heads and you'll be at 700 flywheel hp. I'm 603 hp and 580 trq at the wheels in my Gen IV on Dan Cragin's conservative dyno.

    Gen-4 Guys... possible reasonably priced tuning solution...?

    Hey Dan hope all is well! to hard for me to read through all the posts and subsequent comments. To your question, and from my perspective, I'd be in for NA power adders at $100 per RW HP, but I have to be able to pass CA smog. I'm at the wall at 602 with headers/exhaust, ported intake and...

    Viper production slowed by one third due to sluggish sales

    Jon, it can be done but is it a couple of hundred or a few thousand units? Two possible ways for them to sell at $140; 1, kick's the ****, performance wise, against the any sub $300K cars, Turbo's, Lambo's 430's, etc., not beats, murders them. Someone else pointed to brand, yeah that's the...

    Viper production slowed by one third due to sluggish sales

    Core issue is the price point to hit their sales plan for 2013. Average transaction prices of the '09's and '10's were much lower. GEN V is improved but to come out the gate with a $140 MSRP launch edition was crazy, should have been priced at the old ACR level, then go backwards with SRT to a...

    MCS Shocks

    Price to Chrysler was the driver, ask Lou Bellanger what he would have lost putting his headers on the ACR-X. Same story for KW vs. Moton

    Holger. Glenn Thomas Dodge is right off the 405 freeway in Signal Hill (Near Long Beach airport) 30 minutes from Santa Monica, with light traffic.

    Free Jon B

    Jon's been a great asset to viper owners for over 10 years, ton's of knowledge and always willing to help owners. He went out of bounds with the one customer and most of all of us have had business outbursts that we in hindsight regret. I can understand, but maybe not agree, with 1 year, now...
