    what is up with this? typical of viper owners??

    Quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I always stop to talk to admirers, or give the local kids a ride (and even the local adults). Sorta comes with the territory. Vipers are dream cars for so many people, I feel more than privaledged owning...

    Lets get a final REAL count on guys screwed over from JH...

    Uh oh, Mike, you didn't put in DC Performance or SVSi. And for vendors, you didn't mention Parts Rack, Snake Oyl, Corsa, Borla, Paxton, etc. You're in trouble. The whole board is gonna come after you in full force! hahaha

    SWEET REVENGE: NOS Corvette succumbs to the power of the S/C!!!!

    Tell this to the "I run "stock"" Vette guys. But before they start whining and crying, like all cars there will be variables.

    Just destroyed a 2003 Honda 954

    Good sports, post a link to this thread. They may like to hear the compliments they're getting. The 'Busa guys got pissed off cus the Viper owners on here knew what they were talking about (our cars right?). So maybe you can post this here. That'd start a war worse than the Supra guys could...

    HELP... teens are too close to my bumper

    You got some big ones to let some of your friends drive the Viper. Just curious, have they ever seen pics of Viper wrecks or heard stories from the board on Viper accidents? And have they ever driven a rwd, mid-horsepower car, like Mustang or Camaro? I couldn't believe it when Lee said I could...

    what is up with this? typical of viper owners??

    I'm afraid you need to move to the VA/MD region. Ever since I've been attending VCA events (with another Viper owner), not one owner told/yelled at me to step away from their car because I was too close. I always care for and respect others property, but more so for the Viper from admiration...

    Question For Those Who Customize Their Models

    My 1:18 scale model is a Bburago die cast. That's why I was asking you what steps you took since I thought you were talking about a die cast model. I've never worked with a plastic one, although I have a bunch lieing around. Kurt, I didn't go to Carlisle this year. I moved from Maryland and am...

    20"-22" inch wheel options w/lowering?

    Re: 20 You're scaring me Gerald. hahaha You can also check out 310 Motoring. They were featured in Automobile Wheel and Tire Guide. They have wheels for high dollar sedans, coupes (Ferraris, Porsches, a stock RT/10 in the photo at the shop), and SUVs. This is also where a few celebs and pro...

    Question For Those Who Customize Their Models

    I'm sorry, your question is too broad. I'm not sure at all about what you asking for. Can I ask you what steps you took to paint your car? What colors is the exterior and interior? I still haven' gotten to paint my GTS, which will be my first. Or SRT after that. I have to go pick up some cheap...

    what is up with this? typical of viper owners??

    From what you posted it sounds like he knows who Heffner is. So he's obviously done some research a la personal search, VCA, or on this board.

    My 01 yellow fever RT/10 is for sale!

    I NEVER thought I'd hear these words from you, Jim. I'm sorry to hear that you have to let her leave. Stick around on the board once in a while. Take care, and good luck! Sean

    SANDHILLS 1 MILE SHOOTOUT AND O.R.R. BY SVS

    Jr. I hate to jump in being that I have never talked to you on this board, or any other for that matter. But you did use "detune" in your original post... I've never heard anything exact about SVSi and any mishaps between anyone, but there's something up between SVS and PC. All I'm going to...

    20"-22" inch wheel options w/lowering?

    Re: 20 What you're saying is that if two Vipers, one with stock wheels, one with 20s were travelling at 5k RPMs in the same gear, then the Viper with 20s would be faster getting there. True. But that's not real world. Normally people measure their speed by MPH, not RPMs, so I don't understand...

    Update V-10 Nationals DVD

    Thanks Dr. Roof, another $25 out of my wallet to get me some more Viper stuff. Why did I have to come onto this addiction???

    2001 Viper Race Car for sale

    Too bad you're letting it go. Hope to see you on the track soon in nothing less than a Viper. I think that would have made a great Viper for me. I wouldn't be worried about keeping the paint show-car quality, and I could take it out to the track, where that Viper certainly belongs. Sorry about...

    Newbie here, looking to buy a Viper GTS.. TY

    Just do research before buying. The GTS isn't that hard to drive. I'm an avid Viper enthusiast, I've ridden in 2 500 hp/540 lb-ft GTS, and one Heffner supercharged 651 hp GTS. I've driven one of the GTS's aforementioned (2000 model year) twice. Clutch is good for its power (not too stiff in my...

    20"-22" inch wheel options w/lowering?

    Re: 20 If you have two cars travelling at the same speed going from same point A to same point B, they will get there at the same time. No matter what size tires/wheels/gears/power. If I was travelling in my Mazda 323 with 95lb/ft, 82 hp, and 14" wheels with 195/60 tires at 60 MPH, wouldn't I...

    Well, I guess its official??

    They weren't talking about using the motor, just the "kompressor" or turbo system.

    compliments

    The compliment you don't have to respond to are when kids on the side of the street start bowing, or when a neighbor almost falls off a ladder. There was the one time Lee was driving. We were coming back from Heffner's shop last year. A 4 to 6 year old yells from the backseat of a minivan...

    Match your Viper. If your car had stripes, I'd say switch the colors around, but since it doesn't...

    Any Heffner Guys still here??? Norwalk????

    I will be spectating in Norwalk. Anyone know if Jason himself will be out here? Can't wait to see some Vipers pull down the 1320 for my first time. And to see Gary's and Paolo's Vipers. I'll be "wasting" a lot of film there.

    HELP... teens are too close to my bumper

    There is the study that says older (senior citizens) drivers cause the accidents. Younger drivers become the accident; due to their/our driving inexperience and lack of knowledge with accident avoidance. Luckily this hasn't been the case with me. I've been in one accident. Hydroplaned in a...

    HELP... teens are too close to my bumper

    Referring to strobe lights This will get you in trouble if strobe lights are illegal on streets, or if your strobes are red or blue (possibly even white). In SC, you can have any color strobe you'd like, except red or blue.
