    Man down in the UK :(

    Glad to hear everyone is OK.....too bad about the off-road excursion but it sounds like Mike was lucky with minimal damage as well.

    Time for a new transmission...

    Scott' I'll call you later and will dig up the last invoice I have for a T56 from SG. Have no idea how much different in price the 6060's are.

    How come this board is dead?

    I'm definitely going to go up for at least one of the two days.....Sunday is better but its a zoo. Let us know which day you're going and we'll maximize the Viper presence!

    EPIC Viper vs Porsche battle!!!

    Totally right. When the Porsche got space because the Viper was held up by traffic, the Viper caught up right away. The only reason the Porsche stayed in front so long was blocking....legal yes (I didn't see any compound moves) but exemplary, no.

    Time for a new transmission...

    Scott, sorry to hear about the bang. As the wrecker of no fewer than 4 transmissions in the past two years, its been my experience that 3rd and 5th are the gears that seem to be weakest (5th even moreso than 3rd). The Tremecs are decent but depending on power application they may ned a cooler...

    Having charging issues...

    If it does turn out to be a bad battery; get a Battery Tender instead of the trickle charger. TC's send juice to the battery continuously - not ideal for the battery's life and functionality. Tenders (its a brand name) send juice to the battery only when it needs it....in order to stay fully...

    I'm gonna puke:(

    Arrow for $1,500.....absolutely. FWIW, I had a crank machined from a billet....perhaps THE most expensive way to produce a crank......and it was $6,500 (had no choice, it was a GTS-R small-main-journal crank that broke) As you know by now, that dealership is a stealership.

    Radiator leak, Drivers side in front of wheel

    Yep, you definitely have to look at it to see where the leak is coming from. It could be easy (like a hose....although I think Chrysler no longer makes the lower hose) or more difficult....like the radiator or water pump. When you say that you put your right foot into it and the temp came...

    A choice between two 97 dodge vipers, which do you think is a better pick?

    Not everything rare is desirable..... after 15 years most people hate the gold wheels, I don't think 10 more years is going to change most folk's perception.

    Valve Covers Freshened Up.... Pics Inside

    They look great. Have you experience with this material and technique....as in does it separate with heat or petrochemicals or is the bond rock-tight? It really looks excellent.

    A choice between two 97 dodge vipers, which do you think is a better pick?

    I'd vote for the higher miles with the options you want.....assuming you would do the exhaust and wheel upgrades. I too am not a fan of the gold wheels.....and what's 10K miles if you're gonna drive it? You'l get to 35,000 soon enough with either one!

    How to align?

    I see it and STILL don't believe it:omg:

    How to align?

    Go far? (just being a smart a$$). I know the basics, but never get it quite right. I have had way better results with the machines.

    Making your paint look like glass !

    If you strip the wax and then use polish,but don't wax after the polish, doesn't the paint oxidize more rapidly? Not challenging your suggestion (heck Im gonna try it) just trying to understand the tradeoffs if any.

    SPRAY PAINT?

    I got all excited until I saw the date. The dealer in my neighborhood says thgey can't order spray cans anymore....just the little lipstick bottles....which are worthless. Dang

    Throttle hanging/hunting....

    Then check the IAC.....its not the PCM. The stockers are pretty solid.

    Looks like fun. Congrats on running the times down. I don't think I could ever figure out the cone thing!

    C'mon Man....

    Is this thread messed up somehow? I can't get to the second page....tells me I don't have privileges for that. Doesn't ruin my day or anything, just wondering what the heck is wrong with the electrons.....

    Is your PCM stock?

    Windshield drop?

    They are effective in removing glare, but come at the expense of visibility. On the track the latter isn't a problem, I wouldn't do it for the street - definitely cuts down your visibility....not to a dangerous point, but takes some of the enjoyment out of looking around and enjoying the view...

    Lighter not working, where is the fuse at ? ---

    If the fuse is good, try and clean up the post at the bottom of the receptacle.....it can get corroded over time and a little emory-cloth will shine it up so connection is made.
