It's here - and it's scaring the neighbors...
You see, now I'm being encouraged. Though the peer pressure is getting enormous. And ViperJay seemed like wanted to help, but I see he just wants to drive me to the poorhouse. Next thing you know, I'll roll up with black rims, green engine valve covers, an empty bank account... and someone's...- SmoknTires

Didn't know about the problems with the powder coating :omg: I got the calipers from R&J already coated. You'll find out... In fact I was talking with R&J myself at the time when I was going to paint or powder coat mine. They said it would hold up. That same week Jeremy walker I belive had...- SmoknTires

Ummm... we'll break your legs...? Did that work? We do know people. Well if that didn't do it, here's something. We might be in the same boat. Kristina might not be able to go, so I'm going solo too. So you're not the only one. C'mon, it's not the prom. (feel the peer pressure yet?)- SmoknTires

Crap, both of you might be right. Green calipers and black rims.. ok. I'm thinking about it. Rob, not bad - new for this year I can see. Who did your powder coating? I know lots of us were having trouble melting the coating when we race the cars.- SmoknTires

Tvenom - they didn't paint the front bumper and the car was finished months before the film went on. Thanks for the heads up, lots of folks don't know that. vspray - thanks for the "constructive" feedback and the kind words. You can contact my complaint department at (800) EAT-..... ;.)- SmoknTires

2008 Air Filter/Induction Kit from Snake Oyl . . .
I know after talking with Steve Sharples in Detroit, he said to be careful playing with the intake. He joked and said there's more technology there than in the engine. He did say the typical smooth tubes and filters can cause an adverse issue. He also mentioned something about the way the air...- SmoknTires

Comparison: 2008 Viper Convertible with and without Belanger Exhaust System
I have the full belanger headers/exhaust on my 2003, and yes the sound is the best I've heard. The performance gains are noticeable. Can't wait to hear it on the 08, I've been waiting to do it.- SmoknTires

Luna - The 2" kit is made by a company called Northwind engineering. Roanoke motors has done them so much, they order it for their customers when they need it. The 2" makes the seat non-adjustabel horizontally, you can only adjust the tilt of the back of the seat. They do make a 1" lowering kit...- SmoknTires

I like the luxury of nice tunes. What can I say. I'll sacrifice it for the win. ;.) All it adds is some weight, my guess is 30 pounds total. For the 12 or so track events we do each year, the weight I've added to these cars with the audio systems (and my own weight!) hasn't seem to slow me down...- SmoknTires

Yep, Eric is awesome. Listens well and did a great job tuning. Used to do it myself over a decade ago, but just don't have the time to screw around with these thigns any longer. And Eric just does it a smidge better (ok, a lot better). Pteam - needed to get a convertible because I'm 6'4" and...- SmoknTires

VS - might take it to the occasional show, but I bought mainly for the track. I have other capable cars but couldn't resist the 08 enhancements and wanted something that could still easily cruise with the club in. Hardtop would have been better, but given my height, the verts are far more...- SmoknTires

The offset on the forgelines aren't for this car, you you're dead on, they do stick out a bit and it bothered me at first. But the wheels are very lightweight, I love the style and the deep dish... so I had to use them here. They also don't make them anymore. Little things still have to be...- SmoknTires

Snare drum... heheh. I needed that laugh. Lots of differnet companies worked on the car (Prefix, Autowerks, Roanoke, Graphics Zone, Riggs Bros, etc..). Had them all on a schedule, we missed a few things but almost there. Autowerks did the system. They have a great builder. I knew what I wanted...- SmoknTires

So bad... it's going to need its own theme music. The 2008 has been in modification mode for the first months of this year since it arrived from Connor. I finally drive it in nearly completed form a couple days ago. Pics below. Some of the mods done: snakeskin...- SmoknTires

My GTS vs Jeep SRT8 on Nitrous video...
I have to admit, as a Jeep SRT owner, it's been the most fun car to drive that I've ever owned (of the daily drivers). It's not just that it has power, it's just very quick off the line. It has a very low 1st gear, pretty much serves to get the thing moving (shifts at 18). It hops like a frog...- SmoknTires

Ever wonder how much power your car is putting down? Want to set a baseline before modifications? Want to see what your car is making after modifications? Just want to hang out? Well it’s time to put the rubber to the road and kick off 2008 with a group dyno day. Everyone’s invited. Any model...- SmoknTires
