    WHAT KIND OF SEATBELTS ARE CC OWNERS USING?

    Stock belts on the CC were originally Team Tech. It was switched to Simpson mid-stream.

    Thinking of buying a comp coupe

    I prepared an analysis indicating a true economic operating cost of approximately $1,100 per hour for the Competition Coupe. This covers only the cost of parts & supplies for normal wear and tear, no labor. It does not cover crash damage, event fees, travel, lodging, etc. This only...

    Eibachs.......none in stock nationwide...........anybody have a set?

    If you are looking for Eibach springs or Hypercoil springs, I have a large inventory that I purchased for my GTS racecar years ago. Many are brand new, never used. All of them are 2-1/2" inside diameter and most are either 6" or 8" long. Let me know specifically what you are looking for...

    By the way, Ritch "Muzzy" Marziale is racing his Competition Coupe, not a GTS.

    Woodhouse, Archer , and McCann in the top 10 - Qualifying!!!

    Dodge Motorsports has made an interesting post on this web site in the VCC section. Dodge has brought back the name "Team Viper" and states that the team consists of the McCann brothers, Woodhouse, and Archer all of which are noted as privateers racing in the Speed GT series. I wonder if...

    Titanium brake rotors

    Oh puhleeze.... The reason you want cast iron brake rotors is because they cost only $75 each and work fine for either amateur or low-mid level professional racers. That's what comes on a 3000 pound Comp Coupe which stops 60-0 in 97 feet. Since they last about 25 race hours, your cost is $3...

    Comp Coupe Wheels

    Viper Race Headquarters 888-960-3333. Price is $1,050 each. Considerably less than a new set of BBS wheels for the ACR.

    Wheel Alignment

    You need an inclinometer to set caster on the rear wheels of a Viper. This is part of the Viper Essential Toolkit that certified Viper Techs have. I doubt your alignment shop will have one.

    Car & Driver: Comp Coupe Track Test

    Yes, I believe the tires are a huge factor. The CC also has a far less restrictive exhaust system with its race muffler and no cats. With Goodyear slicks on, my CC weighs 2,934 pounds without fuel or driver. Isn't this like a 400 lb savings over the SRT-10? You also have a lightweight...

    Car & Driver: Comp Coupe Track Test

    The rear axle ratio is the same as an SRT-10, a 3.07. Same differential and gears, only plumbed for a circulating cooling pump.

    Brake Replacement

    Here are reasonable prices for parts and labor: Brake rotors - $75 each X 4 = $300 Brake pads - $205 per axle set X 2 = $410 Clutch and pressure plate = $340 Labor on brake pads and rotors, bleed fluid - 1.5 hours Labor on clutch and pressure plate - 2.5 hours (my guess) At $65/hour labor, your...

    Comp Coupe Exhaust Question

    We were blowing 106s - 107s at Arizona Motorsports Park with the stock Comp Coupe exhaust system. We had to fabricate half-a$$ exhaust baffles to get down under the 103db sound limit. Absolutely no chance of hitting 92 db limit.

    MORE SRT-10 FILTER DYNO RESULTS

    I wonder how much of the 15 rwhp gain is due to the K&N filters and how much is due to the modified K&N snorkle. Is it possible that most, if not all, of the gain is simply from the filters? Most of the Comp Coupes I am aware of are already using K&N filters in place of the stock...

    Trailer tires - what PSI for towing the trailer?

    Set your tires to the maximum pressure shown on the sidewall of the tire. This should be done when your tires are cold, i.e. before they have been driven on for the day.

    Franks PAINTED Comp Coupe!!! (PICS)

    My car is still the same as you see in the photo. Muzzy purchased Phil De La O's CC which was painted the same color as mine. Muzzy painted Phil's car blue and that's what you saw at Thunderhill.

    Speed GT vid if someone will host it

    PDM, why such a negative spin on the VCC being allowed to race in the series? The SCCA recognizes the distinction you are referring to and, accordingly, has labeled it as "limited preparation" with no substantive modifications allowed. Unlike our competitors, we cannot make any internal engine...

    Speed GT vid if someone will host it

    PDM, I think everybody shares your enthusiasm for a street coupe. Please consider the following in the context of what you have written above. Although the VCC is not street legal, it can be purchased by anyone directly from Viper Race headquarters. Put in your order today and you can have...

    Viper Days - Anyone have a real good check list....

    Here's my race preparation checklist. I created this specifically for my Competition Coupe, however, most of it applies to any Viper being prepared for a track event. I perform all steps before each race event. Working by myself, it requires about 20 hours, which includes a complete corner...

    When do you consider a purchase offer to be offensive?

    I was fortunate to be successful in my efforts to sell my 2001 ACR. I won't disclose the price of the sale, however as stated in the ad, it was in mint perfect condition, completley original, and babied with only 1,500 miles on it. It's a no-excuse car. A VCA member e-mailed me asking if I...
