    100 octane unleaded. will it make a performance difference?

    I heard the same thing at a Q&A tech seminar at VOI. The computer doesn't know the difference, so it's pretty much a waste of money.

    The Biggest Viper Myth: The Viper Handling myth

    A guy in our club still has the original tires on his '96 GTS. He's my fathers age, and is probably the nicest person on the face of the Earth. I've never seen him at a track event, and I don't know if the car has ever been past the posted speed limit. He might even still have the little...

    The Biggest Viper Myth: The Viper Handling myth

    I took my wife with me one my first lap at a recent auto cross. She has been with me numerous times when I went fast in a straight line, but she had no idea what a Viper would do around corners. She told me that as we aproached a turn she kept waiting for me to hit the brakes and slow down, and...

    Holes from rear wing

    Take it to a good body shop; there's no simple fix to poking holes in cars. It's probably going to have to be stripped, filled, sanded and repainted.

    Viper SRT 10 Videos - SRT Track Experience at VIR

    I'm a little baffled here, and I need someone to explain something: How is it that all the magazines that test Vipers say the handling is terrible and there is no telling where the limit is, but yet these guys went around every corner on the ragged edge and no one spun or even left the track...

    Transmission question

    I'm trying to figure out how to disconnect the hydraulic clutch line from the transmission. There is a red annodized connector at the end of the line that goes into the transmission, and a white plastic piece that it slides into. I have the tool, but don't know how to uncouple the line from the...

    1:12 JRL Pace Car RT/10

    I emailed the seller about the one just listed and asked if it was the same one that was just sold for $51.00 and the reply was "Yes it has been relisted." I hope he's not running a scam. Did you get a tracking number?

    value of a 92 RT with 6K

    Doesn't matter what it's worth, it only matters what someone's willing to pay. I have a 1996 Mystic Mustang Cobra with 3,994 miles that I would like to sell, but there isn't a big market for people willing to pay what I want. I know what "I" think its worth, but that doesn't mean I'll find a...

    SRT-10 vs Some exotics(high-speed test)

    I'm perfectly content with my 10 year old GTS. At a recent autocross I was 2 seconds quicker than the Ford GT, and of the 2 almighty new Z06 vettes the fastest was 4 seconds behind. I've driven an SRT-10 coupe, and it is far superior in every performance department. It's a phenominal car, and if...

    Need Recomendations for a Radar/Laser Detector

    The V-1 paid for itself the first trip I took. The arrows are second to none, and it's a wise investment. It uses phone cable insted of a coil cord, so you can get a cord in different lengths anywhere and it's cheap. I got a refurbished unit and it was a little cheaper.

    DC-Skip Barber Poor Business Decisions?

    We live in a world where a car can never have too much horsepower, but unfortunatly a person can. Driving schools are imperative to getting the most out of your car, and you learn techiniques that could save your life. It's irresponsible to toss the keys to someone to a street legal race car...

    A pointless story

    My wife got suckered into a subscription that came every week, and I finally got tired of it and cancelled it. About 2 weeks after that some leach was calling and pestering my wife to pay the remaining balance. It went on every day for 2 or 3 weeks, and they always called when I wasn't home...

    Anyone say "nice Vette" to your Viper?

    Re: Anyone say \"nice Vette\" to your Viper? I got it once and just said thank you. I think it's hard for some people to approach others, and the last thing I want to do is make them feel stupid.

    Track Day Pics

    How'd you do against the vettes? I did an autocross a few weeks ago and had a Ford GT and 2 new Z06s in my class. I was 4 seconds faster than the quickest Z06, and had 2 seconds on the GT. I just went to have fun, and never though I would actually win my class.

    SRT-10 vs Some exotics(high-speed test)

    There's always going to be a faster car. The Z06 was built for the sole purpose of beating the Viper, but it did it at the expense of reliability. I wouldn't take a Z06 if you gave it to me because they are garbage; I don't care about a few tenths in a quarter mile. As for the rest of the cars...

    Clutch question

    Sorry to hijack your thread, but I'm having a similar problem. I drove it Thursday and it was hard to get in gear. I put it in neutral, and the pedal was soft and then it wouldn't go back in gear. I checked, and it was low on fluid. I added fluid, and it did fine. Yesterday I was backing down...

    RE : Painted Hood liners

    I had a bad experience with Ron, and would advise against dealing with him. He lied about the condition of his product, and then when I returned the items (2 door panels) he kept $70.00 from my refund as a "restocking fee." :rolleyes:
