Changes I would make if I was doing it over.
The winch set up was left from my 1955 Thunderbird and that top was very heavy not light like the Viper.
1. So I would think about mounting the top (pulley) location on a slide of some kind so the car did not have to be parked exactly in the same...
Autocross varies greatly. We autocross on an old WWII airport on an area 1/2 mile long with speeds over 70 mph and sweepers like a road course and that is fun, some groups autocross in parking lot with speeds under 36 mph and all tight turns, not that fun in a Viper in my opinion, With that...

I instructions say to drill the holes to get to the passenger side shifter plate bolts, the original shifter was held on with standard hex bolts and I was able to remove them without the holes, the new bolts (longer to accommodate the aluminum shifter plate were internal hex (Allen bolts) and I...

Sue and I are planning on going down early for the C&C, I was wondering What the address of the Prospect C&C was and if several vipers are planning on attending what time and where they are meeting or is it a small gathering we can easily find each other.
