    VIPER Friendly Tracks in Cali?

    Skirmishes aside, have the "oiling issues" been resolved for 2008? If not, then I guess Dodge better get ready to take back a lot of grenaded motors from SRT-10s running street car class HPDEs on street tires--basically what the car was designed for! I just came from a C6Z that had dry...

    '08 Belanger Header Info

    From the mailer: 1. What is "ODB2 compliant" mean? Will these have California CARB approval? (I am sure that is a "NO" given the "offroad only" notation. 2. What is aluminized tubing? Stainless steel with coating? Mild steel? 3. What does "Factory tested" mean? Has Dodge Mopar...

    Shifter for '08

    This sounds like where I would like to start: replace upper part of shaft and shifter ball to just lower the shifter ball height a little, but retain the stock shifter mechanism, dampening, etc. 1. Are we saying the same thing? 2. Where can I order the MGW and the add-on that converts the...

    Carbon Fiber Console?

    My '08 Coupe arrives next week and I would like to add a carbon fiber or carbon fiber-look dash console (shifter/radio area). It will most likely be faux carbon fiber. Any ideas what to get and where to get it? Thanks for your ideas!

    Shifter for '08

    My '08 Coupe arrives next week and I would like to add a somewhat shorter shifter. I specifically do NOT want a shifter that will add noise and vibration. I just think the stock shifter is a bit tall. I see many use a MGW or something but it looks like an entire assembly. Any...

    Macedo Motorsports helps my new 08 go 10.86!!!

    Great times! Just curious: is the trap speed mph lower in FL? I would expect low 130s for the '08 with those mods. Not taking away from a great run, just curious!

    SRT10 and HPDE

    Thanks--that is what I suspected. If I take the plunge, I am leaning toward the coupe to avoid this issue.

    SRT10 and HPDE

    For those of you enjoying HPDEs in your SRT10s, are the various track clubs requiring roll hoops, etc.? HPDEs I have run with follow a "broomstick rule": a broomstick is placed in the window header and the other end is placed where it hits toward the rear of car behind the driver's seat (and...

    The Viper is Alive and Well

    Great to hear the VCA is going to bat to make sure Dodge understands that the impact of the Viper extends beyond just sales of Vipers. However, cheerleading aside, did you receive any specific information regarding a definite commitment of Dodge to continue R & D and production of the Viper...

    More powerful Viper? No, NOT the 2008!

    I think the quote might be backwards... . Torque is definitely useful getting the car moving and coming out of corners,etc. but hp is necessary to keep the car pulling. There is also a limit to how much torque is usable--limit of adhesion. You see evidence of this in the power profiles of...
