    Thanks for the link - you even have a Viper class!?!?! About how many were there last year? I'll pass this info along to the local Mopar club as well (qcmopars.org).

    Western IL / Eastern Iowa Events

    John - Don't forget the 97X/Sturgis on the River at the fairgrounds! In addition to the QC Cruisers calendar, I found this one for many in the northwestern Illinois area: 3D Sound Company The Mopar club is also working on a couple cruises (maybe an overnighter) as well as a monthly cruise-in...

    Harbor Freight Float battery charger...I have a question.

    I've used these on a couple of my cars (not the Viper - have a B&D charger plugged into the cigarette lighter) and haven't had any issues with them other than... the wires from the wall to the unit are hair-thin. They are plenty long, but if you step on it or pinch it in any way (which I did)...

    Women's Day Requirements

    Looks like Nicole wants to do it, but need to find out about safety requirements. Will helmets be needed for this event? If so, same specs as other events? I know some snuck through with snowmobile helmets at the autocross last year.... my regular helmet doesn't fit the wife (no big-head...

    2009 IL VCA Performance Driving Season Announced

    Just got my packet in the mail and noticed - no drag racing events this year? I joined too late to enjoy any last year, but planned on a drag race and road course this year (if nothing else to use my freebie!). Any planned? Or wasn't there enough interest? Just curious. Scott

    2009 IL VCA Performance Driving Season Announced

    Another random internet photo

    I looked at it the same way, that he DOES have his priorities straight! Wonder how many 08 SSG w/White were made...

    Winterfest

    I'm bringing mine (try to find an overnight babysitter on V-Day, no way!). The girls are 4 and 6. Bring your quarters - they'll dance for you! :rolaugh:

    Winterfest

    Thanks again Alex for your work in making this happen for my kids also! We'll be there! Just got done making reservations at the hotel. FYI to anyone who is thinking on staying there. The special price is only available while supplies last, or until 1/24 (whichever comes first). That date of...

    looking for a sapphire blue GTS dicast?

    If/when I do it, they'll be Matchbox/Hot Wheels sized (to keep the base price down, and that's what I collect). Last time I ran the numbers though, labor and paint was going to run nearly $20/each! I guess because of a minimum order for the paint...

    looking for a sapphire blue GTS dicast?

    Since it's Matchbox, it is technically in the 1:55-1:64 range. Here are a couple better photos from my site (it's a Gen 1 RT/10). But so far the closest thing to sapphire ever issued. Now that I'm a sapphire owner, I'm looking into having 25-30 custom made using factory paint (stripping down...

    Know this car/dealer?

    Yep, I will forward him his classified link. I think they might be a little too far apart on price though (I believe his budget to be very low 30's).

    Know this car/dealer?

    Nope, in fact he just emailed me to say someone else bought it. Maybe someone from the board? It was a good price.... I guess the search continues! On a good note, I do know he'll take red if he finds one he likes! ;)

    Know this car/dealer?

    He's very familiar with Roanoke, as he brings his Mopar muscle cars to their show every year (Cuda, Roadrunners, etc.) and I'm sure has met most of you at one time while admiring the Vipers. He's quite the gearhead, so he'll be performing most of the planned upgrades himself. I believe he...

    Lifts and Insurance

    After installing a garage lift this year, I made my annual call to Allstate to change the insurance coverage on the Viper and Boxster for the winter (reducing down to just comprehensive). Explained that one will be stored on a lift, with the other underneath it. No qualms from the agent, but...

    Know this car/dealer?

    Have a friend that is in the market for a GTS, and he happened across this listing: 1998 Used Dodge Viper GTS at Diamond Motorworks in Naperville, IL - Vehicle Details I told him I'd inquire here if anyone was familiar with the car or the dealer (good and bad comments welcome), as well as a...
