    Tracking a 2002 GTS

    Hey, thanks guys. So it sounds like the viper will be a little harder on brakes then my car mostly because of the serious amount of extra weight and extra speed, but that was expected. I jut wanted to make sure it didn't have any serious flaws. I can handle that as I normally change out my...

    Tracking a 2002 GTS

    I actually didn't think your suggestions were necessary, I'm just trying to figure out the weaker parts of the car before I pick one up. Unfortunately, I don't live in Portland anymore. I actually live around Houston now, but I have talked to JonB before. I don't know if I'm very fast, but...

    Tracking a 2002 GTS

    Thanks for the reply! You mentioned pads/rotors? Are the stock rotors not up to the task? What are good replacements? What are good pads for the viper? I have run carbotechs and cobalts on my S2000. Do you run penskes, motons? If so who set your's up? I am no suspension guru, so I have...

    Tracking a 2002 GTS

    I have been on the fence for a while now about buying a viper. I like to do HPDEs 5-10 times a year and have had an S2000 for 4 years now. It has been a great car for HPDEs since all it needs is brake fluid, brake pads, and R compound tires to be pretty fast (for that type of car). The...

    One Little Screw in my Run-Flat and I am out $1000 !

    umm....I am not really sure why you think you are out $1000. You have used them for 9k miles and have 1-2k left so at most you have about 20% of the tire left left. So you are like $200 if you assume they cost $1000. You would have to replace them anyway in another 1-2k miles!

    DC PERFORMANCE/ AEM VIPER 857 RWHP!

    When you say track.... I assume you mean 1/4 track? It would be interesting to see how it does on road course for 15-20 laps. Nice looking system!

    Toyo R1 feels very wabbley

    The toyo R1? The R compounds used in many many car racing series? I run them on the race track, not on a viper though. I didn't notice any "wobbliness" in them??!?! Not sure what you are experiencing. 44 psi is wayyy too high. After running hot (like after a lapping session) they should...

    How can you leave your Viper parked without worrying all the time?

    It is the same everywhere. The guys who drive their cars hard are never the ones who worry about how they look. You will never hear a track junky complaining about paint chips.

    Viper Financing?

    I would keep trying. Two of the local credit unions around here are 5-7 yrs at 3.69%. Getting 20k for that long at that rate (assuming your credit is good) would not be hard.

    PDX: Looking to buy a used 2002 viper

    I posted a couple of days ago about a viper I was looking at. It is graphite grey with the cognac interior. I was wondering if someone could give me the low down on the 2002 vipers. Are they all FE's or not? Or are all FE's red with white stripes? Also, the car only has 2000 miles on it and...

    Price for 2002 GTS with 8 miles

    So I went and checked out the one at Dick's. It is the owners car too. It has 17 miles on it. I guess he wants to sell it as an 04 is coming in and it is his. The car is brand new. I need to have a chat with the wife! ;) hehe. We will see how it goes.

    Viper has Build Quality of a Kit Car..But Still Fun

    This argument reminds me of the Open Source vs Microsoft argument. Microsoft likes to hide the problems in their software hoping no one ever finds out and exploits them. It works with many issues, but also results in lots of fun viruses like IloveU,etc. The open source community likes to show...
