    I did it!!

    I picked up my GTS this morning from the shipper. On my way home, I passed a silver RT/10 going the opposite way. I think the license plate was SLY FOX. I have not seen a viper in my area in a long time. Anyone know who the sly fox is and/or where he/she lives?

    Junkman @ Thompson Racing 16OCT2010!

    I had a good time meeting some VCA members and learning from A. J. When my car arrives, I'll be able to assess the condition and know what actions to take. Thanks to the Thompson guys for hosting and for the pizza and drinks.

    What is the latest condition of the Barber instructor injured?

    The 'loss of affection' thing is common in lawsuits. My father was a passenger in a car that slid off the road on ice. He was hurt from the impact of hitting a tree. His insurance company went after the driver's insurance and one of the claims was LoA. Since we're talking about my dad, I didn't...

    Junkman @ Thompson Racing 16OCT2010!

    I just found out my Viper is still sitting in Illinois on the delivery truck. The delivery company (not the dealer) is waiting for a couple more cars before heading east. I plan to arrive around noon-ish.

    Are All Vipers Created Equal

    I looked at that car (online) when I was checking out the Cognac interiors. I remember the "1-owner who moved" explanation. That is a beauty. I can imagine your son's reaction. My daughter (10) has already requested a ride to school when mine arrives and my youngest son (7) wants a ride to...

    Are All Vipers Created Equal

    While I agree with the above, you currently CAN'T join. The system was not setup for 2011, so when I joined last week, I ended up getting a refund and told to wait. Hopefully any day now. This message is on the website: .. In preparation for the 2011 Membership Season, online membership is...

    Are All Vipers Created Equal

    It depends on your definition of better. I would take a '63 Vette with split-back window over an '06 Vette, even though the newer one would be more comfortable, safer, etc. The '63 would be "better" to me because I want the look of the split-back and the old style muscle car.

    Are All Vipers Created Equal

    Here is a list that RevHeat provided in another thread. As JohnnyViper mentioned, check the tires. --- Here are some more checks that you can put on your list to do in the future: (1) Change all fluids if not recently done. (2) Get the fuel filter replaced. You might still have the...

    Junkman @ Thompson Racing 16OCT2010!

    I will be there. Not sure my car will be delivered by Friday, but if not I'll be there with my Tundra - which actually could use some cosmetic repairs. :-(

    I did it!!

    I am planning to be there. I had PM'd thomsonracing for the details. There is a only a small chance my car will be here on Friday, but most likely next week. But, I'll still be there. I'll post a reply in that forum as an RSVP.

    I did it!!

    Well, I guess I won't become a full-fledged member yet. VCA has refunded my money because the website wasn't setup properly to cover 2011. So, I have to wait until that gets resolved before I can join. :(

    What the Viper was made for...

    Our company was recently purchased by a large German software company so maybe one day I'll get to visit. Cruising the Autobahn sounds rather awesome. :jawdrop:

    Are the classifieds working?

    There is a problem with the notification email when an ad is posted. The email contains a link that should go to the specific ad, but it is missing the ad id. The link says "product=", but should have a number. Emailed: http://classifieds.viperclub.org/showproduct.php?product= Should be...

    build info by VIN??

    Apparently it is not that easy. I tried sending an email and I received an automated reply that my email was not properly formatted. I suspect that fastandloud may have received build info from that email address, but you can only reply if you have the tracking number in the Subject line...

    That picture is definitely your car, assuming you are Mark M of Pleasanton. Star City Motors » 2009 » August Scroll down to the car in question. I noticed also that the JPG file in that Star City listing is named whtmam1-400x300.jpg and that is the same name as the JPG in the Classifieds...

    Are the Gen II's value a little too high??

    Funny you list this car. I tried calling the seller earlier today to find out the "story". The phone number is no longer in service. As someone mentioned about Carfax, I ran an Autocheck and it didn't find anything on that VIN.

    build info by VIN??

    While researching old threads here, it seems there is some way to get the original build information based on the VIN. Is this something only a select few can do, or is it something generally available? I found reference to a URL (http://www.viperclub.org/IVR/vin.html) that doesn't seem to...

    Are the classifieds working?

    Is there a problem with the classifieds section? The 1997 GTS category shows Last Ad Posted on Sept 27, but there is no ad from that date. The 2001 GTS category says Last Ad was Sept 29, but again no ad. Any ideas?

    Is this really an ACR???

    Sorry, I used the wrong term. I should have said "option". My bad for saying "add-on".

    Is this really an ACR???

    There is a 2008 ACR listed at bjmotors that shows the window sticker listed as SRT-10 and the ACR as an add-on. The pics might help as a reference. 2008 Dodge Viper Black Red ACR

    Classified Ad

    Ironically, the classifieds show the last ad posted in 2001 GTS category was today, by you, but the ad isn't there (as you mentioned). I'm surprised it shows your name if the ad hasn't been approved yet.
