    general requirements to take an RT on Track

    Rules depend on club but an almost general one is the "broomstick test" You don't want your head to "support" the car if you were to flip. Put your helmet on, seat as normal and put a broomstick over your head between the top of the windshield frame and the sport bar or roll bar etc. You want...

    What a day at the track . . .

    "Tracks do provide corner workers" Yes and no, some like Infineon/Sears not only provide the workers but mandate the use of their own workers, Thunderhill provide workers if you request it, Reno/Fernley and BW do not. In California,there is a very professional Flag workers organization, called...

    What a day at the track . . .

    Brian: As Redsled mentioned, we have a few instructors that own/race/open track Vipers. I myself own a Viper (00GTS) and we always have a few Vipers at our events. To answer "Driving School" Kinder : Running an open-track/ race event is not cheap, anywhere between $16K to $24K for a weekend (...

    Black with silver stripes GTS, 32,000 miles, 49,990...Too much?

    Re: Black with silver stripes, 32,000 miles, 49,990...Too much? "The people who have heard all the disaster stories about crashed viper and have not driven a car without it, namely a 450hp one." I think that you're getting confused between TC (traction control) and ABS The vast majority of...

    Black with silver stripes GTS, 32,000 miles, 49,990...Too much?

    Re: Black with silver stripes, 32,000 miles, 49,990...Too much? Who care about ABS, if it's your deciding factor in buying a Viper, you're looking at the wrong type of car. As it has been said many times, on a Viper you first decide on the body style, then the color and that tell you which...

    Question about recall on genII cars?

    Since i don't track the car and check it often, I never done the steering recall on my 00 GTS but, was I did, was to get,for free, all the parts/kit needed to do it. A recall not having an expiration date, maybe in 30 years I will have DC doing it. Luc.00GTS

    Things I learned at VIR Viperdays 2006

    using the engine to brake/slow down the car is 100% the wrong thing to do an a race track. Beside possible extra wear and tear on the driveline, it is neither efficient nor help in going faster. Obviously,to obtain maximum traction, being in braking,turning or accelerating, you need to...

    Diagnosis Help Needed: Battery or Alternator?

    make sure that your battery connections are tight and connect a voltmeter whith the engine idling. Volts shoud be above 13.5/14. If not, problem is with your charging system. Luc.00GTS

    I need to know normal engine temp on SRT-10 (I did a forum search BTW)

    GR8ASP is correct,what control the max temp of the cooling system is the BTU's (British Thermal Unit) capacity of the cooling system, not your T-stat that only regulate the minimum temp. That your cooling system is able to maintain 185* only show that the system has enough BTU's capacity is to...

    SRT or GTS? And depreciation?

    One of the reasons is that the SRT has a lot more competition in the marketplace than the RT/GTS had. no car in the same price range than the GenII had 450hp, Today, you've a bunch of car that push 500hp as Corvette,BMW,etc. But,I do believe that the main factor is the styling/design, by...

    *DELETED*

    Re: Where can I find a CA emissions label other than a Dodge Dealer??? If you can't find a sticker, the easiest way will be to remove the speedo and have a shop advance it to 7501. I know there is a law against roll back but not against roll forward Another, little known solution is described...

    Where is the "VCA mistake" thread gone?

    Re: Where is the Janni: I have ben around long enough to know that what matter is not what peoples say but what they do. Times and times again the "control freaks" mostly some at the national level, have shown that they don't respect dissenting views and act as if the VCA is their...

    Where is the "VCA mistake" thread gone?

    Re: Where is the Tony: I couldn't agree more with you. I'm sure peoples are smart enough to know that the ONLY reason the thread was moved to a "safer" (meaning as Tony said,with a lot smaller controlled audience)location, is because it was critical of the way the VCA is run at the...
