    Diamond Back Viper Video

    +1 !! Music is ok, but engine sound would be better. I want to hear it when they fire it up.

    Exhaust Work in Denver

    I have had good luck with the guys at Apex Hyperformance/Bimmer Haus. They mostly work on BMW's and other imports, but they are a very well respected high performance shop among SCCA and NASA crowd and they have always done first class work for me on my Viper. They have done a lot of custom...

    Why no roll protection for the 2008?

    My last "casual" track day, I was redlined in 4th gear on the front straight which leads into a corner taken at about 95mph. I was glad for my (aftermarket) roll bar. If I'm not mistaken, the folks at Viper Days won't let a Gen III vert run without aftermarket add-ons. That just seems...

    Why no roll protection for the 2008?

    I guess my thought is that you should be able to take Dodge's "race ready street car" to an open track day without getting an aftermarket roll bar. My car has an autoform roll bar, and a full 10 pound fire supression system, 5 pound extinguisher, and weighs 3360 with a full tank of gas, so...

    Why no roll protection for the 2008?

    The 2008 addressed most every shortcoming of the Gen III except for one glaring omission: Roll over protection. Why do you suppose that on a self described track car, there is no roll-over protection? A beefed up roll bar would add both safety and torsional rigidity. Seems like a no...

    Anything I should be worried about if I put a 2008 oiling system on a 2004?

    When will the 2008 oiling system parts be available?

    From what I've heard the 2008 car seems to be amazing. You've addressed just about every major shortcoming on the Viper. To me it looks almost perfect (add roll protection and it is perfect.) I'm sure, however, that there were some things on your engineering "wish list" that didn't make...

    Is there still a tire pressure sensor, or did that get ditched when you got rid of the runflats?

    Personalized Plates

    What message is this guy trying to send? (Probably better served with a bumper sticker that says "My other car is a new VW Beetle")

    345 vs 335

    I think he was asking about PS2s. If he wants sticky tires, Pilot Sport Cup and Kumho V710 are both offered in 345/18. So is the BFG drag radial. I don't know of any non r-compound tire that is offered in a 345/18. As for the differences between 335 and 345: I don't think there is much...

    I broke myT56 gear again !

    I have a rockland road race tranny in my car. Not enough miles on it yet to form an opinion on durability, but it's claimed to be pretty strong. I also got closer ratio 5th and 6th gears on it so I could pull harder in 5th and 6th.

    not once... but twice... turned down by a stealership for a VIper alignment...

    The "special tool" I'm referring to is the inclinometer and the adapters that attach it to the knuckles. As for anyone who claims to have received a full-on alignment in less than an hour, check the paperwork you received. I'd be very surprised if you have a dynamic toe pattern plot as part...

    Looking for Head..........s

    Congratulations! I signed up for that, but they sent me a polite letter telling me that I wasn't invited. Glad to see there's at least one Viper to represent the Viper nation. Good luck!

    345 vs 335

    They don't make 345's in 18 inch sizes.

    not once... but twice... turned down by a stealership for a VIper alignment...

    If done correctly, it takes more than an hour and does require a special tool. A lot of the complaints about Viper handling (bump steer, etc.) are due to poor alignment. If you take the time to get the car aligned correctly by a shop that really knows what they are doing, it makes a big...

    Phtoshoot with my GTS

    Is there a Viper in this photoshoot? I'm going to have to go back and look more carefully, I guess.

    6 Point Seat Belt Install

    Apparently, the Snake Oyl instructions indicate that the belts are supposed to be installed over the front of the seat. I think that the Snake Oyl folks are a bit confused here, as Janni is correct. The belts won't work if they are installed that way.

    Oh my gosh......I MIGHT BE MOVING TO GERMANY !!!!!!!!!

    You've got to post some pictures and video of driving on the Ring. (Maybe you should shoot an AFN spot about it.)

    What did happen to that 675 H.P. show coupe?

    Greely, Colorado? Not far from me. Maybe I'll be making a trip to your garage to take a joy ride. :drive:

    valve cover spacers

    I got mine from West Coast Viper. Lots of folks sell them. I think I paid $700. Wouldn't surprise me if you could find them a lot cheaper than that.

    New Horse and Chariot

    First time this happened to me was on the highway. I passed an infiniti, and a second or two later, my laser alarm goes off. I slow down, and the infiniti passes me while I am rubbernecking for a cop. I ascertain that the coast is clear, get on the gas, pass the infiniti, and my laser...

    New Horse and Chariot

    I HATE those infiniti SUV's. They have some sort of traffic safety device in them that uses lasers and every time one goes by, it sets off my Valentine 1, causing me to think I've just been lasered by the cops. (nice rig, by the way.)
