    How will SRT-10's be distributed to dealers?

    How will SRT-10\'s be distributed to dealers? Will dealer allocations for 2003's be based on number of confirmed orders with certs that the dealers receive in Jan/Feb? Or will allocations be based on past sales and other "usual" factors for determining allotment?

    Any electronic pix of the 2002 blue ACR being raffled?

    I poked around viperclub.org and couldn't find any mention of the upcoming raffle. I'd love to see some pix on-line. Anyone?

    Why Vipers belong on a Road Course and Not the 1/4 Mile

    ....once again reaffirming that any car can be made to go fast in the 1/4. I must admit it baffles me why people want to make rather "plain" vehicles go fast. To each his own! If I were to invest a lot of money making a car fast, I would probably start with a '67 Camaro or GTO. To me, it...

    Is the raffle close to selling out ?

    I presume from the material that there are 2002 tickets available? If so, but fewer than 2002 tickets are sold, does this mean one's chances of winning improve? The rules imply not, because they state that the odds of winning are "no greater than 1 in 2002." Questions: (1) Is it correct that...

    Are there really a limited # of certs for SRT's?

    Re: Are there really a limited # of certs for SRT\'s? Mike, Here's a quote from an e-mail sent to SoCal club members this weekend: "The latest information we have heard (and this will be confirmed as quickly as possible) is that there WILL, in fact, be a specific amount of certificates...

    Looks like I'm SOL on getting a 2003 Viper

    Looks like I\'m SOL on getting a 2003 Viper For some reason the VIN of my 2001 was not accepted by the 2003vgx web site. I called the 877 number and after half an hour finally managed to get through and not have my call dropped. The person I spoke to confirmed that I don't have a valid VIN...

    Willow Springs ate a few Vipers this weekend

    Ugh! That's really bad news, Ulysses, but I'm glad you're ok. That's a tough way to start out tracking your car. SoCal and I were up at Famoso on Saturday, and conditions were equally crappy, though neither of us lost it (fortunately). It's funny: the track looked dry, but there was...

    I'm back!

    Re: I\'m back! Hi, Mike! I also have an '03 on order with Woodhouse. Fortunately, I now own a new Viper so I qualify for a certificate. So where is your '98? Obviously you haven't had the insurance company total it out.

    2003 DODGE VIPER SRT-10 / NEWS FOR ORDERING!!

    Ummm, one question occurs to me. Are there a limited number of certificates that will be available? If so, what is the number of certificates? (And, on a related note, how many people does DC think are qualified to receive a certificate based on the aforementioned criteria?)

    2003 DODGE VIPER SRT-10 / NEWS FOR ORDERING!!

    It looks like I bought my 2001 GTS just in the nick of time! Of course, it's so beautiful I don't know if I will feel like parting with it when the time comes....Hopefully more info on performance will be forthcoming soon. Any word on when more details about power, 0-60, 1/4 mile, braking...

    RWHP Conversion to Flywheel HP?

    Though if you look at the FAQ , the conversion factor appears to be 13%, in which case you would use fwhp = rwhp / 0.87.

    DRAG RACING QUESTIONS - NEED EXPERTS HELP

    Well, if you want opinions other than Welch's, here goes. (1) Buy Purner's slick and skinny set-up. You already know John, obviously. If you want to do any serious drag racing, it's more fun to be able to do a big smokey burnout and have a really good launch every time. (2) With slicks, drive...

    DRAG RACING QUESTIONS - NEED EXPERTS HELP

    You can pull 11's at 120 mph on street tires. It will all depend on the launch. Personally, my best on street tires was 12.0 at 122 mph in my '97 (see signature for mods), but I don't claim to know how to launch really well on street tires. Best short time was 1.9 sec. I find it more fun to...

    GTS Locking Gas Cap???

    I'm also sorry to hear about Viperess's experience with a locking gas cap, but like Ron, I've had the CTS cap for a year and a half and (knocking on wood) have had no problems. I guess you have to weight the risks both ways: imploding gas tank vs. some jealous moron on the street tampering...

    Rear end gear vs 1/4 mile MPH

    I was running about 120 mph trap speeds in my '97 with the stock 3.07 gear, and when I switched to 3.55, my trap speeds went up to about 121 mph. I'm not sure the gear mattered too much in terms of trap speed; I think the difference between 121 and 123 mph was due to driving technique. What...

    Can you believe this guy

    Overall it's a positive review. Frankly, though, anyone who would base their decision about buying a Viper on any review instead of driving one themselves is a fool. The car is not for everyone, and no reviewer is going to change anyone's mind on anything. Still, he gets paid for doing...

    New Belanger Headers/Exhaust installed.

    Well, as entertaining as this whole thread has been, I'm curious if the original poster ever did the dyno run that was alluded to so we can see the results? (Let me proofread this to make sure my grammar and spelling are perfect!!!)

    Hey everyone!

    Chris is a very cool guy. I've spent some time over the last 2 days exchanging e-mails and talking to him on the phone. What Chris really needs to do is talk to Pemberton now and have Pemberton convince him how beneficial it would be to terminate his lease early. Just my opinion!!! Oh...

    Just installed Corsa 3" exhaust.

    Re: Just installed Corsa 3\" exhaust. You guys are freaking me out here! I bought Corsa 3" catbacks for my '01. Haven't installed them yet, but now I'm worried! At least Vipera and Bill have something positive to say, though Bill sells Corsa, so he may be just a teeny bit biased. <FONT...

    Half Shafts

    Unitrax half shafts are in the vicinity of $700-$800, if I recall correctly. They make two models (actually soon to be three), and that is the price for the low end model, which they say is good up to 700 hp. If you have more power than that, you need to go with the 1200 hp shafts that treynor...
