    Wheel hop after new wheels and tires.... Help!!!

    Your old tires were not run flats - correct? Your new tire is a run flat - correct? On this forum, many of us refer to them as "run craps". Do a little research on this site and you will find out why. When I had my Gen III, I switched to PS2s. It made a world of difference on a number of levels...

    06 coupe with engine concern

    I suggested that it might be the O2 sensors, and I am sure Chuck did too, because he has a catback and Random cats. With that combination, there have been a number of posts over the years where the sensors were the problem.

    My Dealership No Longer Servicing Gen 5

    The tech's name is Ray. He services Gen I through Gen IV. They have a younger tech who went to Viper tech school but he does not hold a candle to Ray who, in my opinion, is a Viper savant. The fellow that replaced Mark, who is a good friend, when he left to open his own shop/store, is a nice...

    My Dealership No Longer Servicing Gen 5

    The Service Manager must be a bit confused. You should call the SRT hotline about this. The dealer's franchise agreement must require them to service a Dodge product. What is the name of the Service manager and what is the name of the dealer? Post same and I am sure one of us will forward the...

    06 coupe with engine concern

    See the Wizard. Check for any vacuum leak. Check your O2 sensors. Does it happen when you are in the pedal and the engine is torquing over and its position is changing? Or does it happen when you are cruising at 2000 RPM in fifthy or sixth gear? More facts would help narrow it down.

    Gen.5 Absent in 2014 MT Worlds Greatest Drag Race/Car of Year ????

    The TA was not in the test as stated above because it was not invited to be in the test. The Viper is now at the top of its two road race version classes. That says more than keyboard races. Bruce's video posts show that the TA is more than a match for a PTurbo on a road course. Beating the new...

    Gen.5 Absent in 2014 MT Worlds Greatest Drag Race/Car of Year ????

    Since it was designed as a road course car and its recent competition variant outings show its dominance in that venue, I think it would almost demean the car to refer to it as a drag rac car. The Hellcat Challenger and Hellcat Charger will do Dodge's talking in that venue until such time as...

    Little experience with manuals. Learning in a Viper.h

    See if there are any local performance driving schools in your area. You can sign up with an instructor and use the school's car. Some track day organizations also do this. I had my son do a one day program in a manual Vette ( the track day people provided it). At the time, he had little...

    Returning to the Viper world: Gen5...How different from previous Gen4 and Gen2?

    Here is some additional data. Read the entire thread. I believe some found the data useful and decided to buy a Gen V. http://forums.viperclub.org/threads/669776-Boy.-Some-some-people-are-so-fickle.?highlight=people+fickle

    CAAP: When does it come back online to begin producing 2015s?

    Hi Jack. Quick question. And sorry for the off point post. Could you post an update on the inlet air temperature drag racing issue from months ago. Also, while you are at it, could you post about the new "tuning" device for the Gen V. Have you bought it and used it yet? Thanks in advance for...

    General Owners Concensus on the Gen 5

    My car's fit an finish and panel fitnment was/is perfect. I even measured the gaps. The precision and uniformity of the assembly was a surprise after being used to the level of same on my former Gen II and Gen III. The fitment issue did improve considerably after the initial few months of...

    General Owners Concensus on the Gen 5

    An incredible car at a fantastic price. It is by far the best generation Viper so far. My prior Vipers were a Roe supervharged Gen II GTS and a Woodhouse/Paxton supercharged Gen III. Both were great cars. This one is even better.

    Chrysler: Please tweak the $15K Voucher...

    $15k certificates to start arriving tomorrow.

    It really comes down to something very simple. Would you have preferred that the Viper program ended or what they did which was to reposition the price point of the car and continue the Viper program? I am thrilled that Dodge did what they did. It means that the combined institutional knowledge...

    2014 C&D VIR Lightning Lap Results...Viper TA delivers!

    The 2014 Viper TA, per the recent price change, is now $100,885 plus destination, gas guzzler, etc. It was never 130K. It used to be $115K plus destination, gas guzzler, etc. The TA sticker price was 120,480. Now it will be 105,480. The 2015.5 TA 2.0 may be a bit less if the increase in MPG to...

    $15,000 coupon delivered today by UPS

    Someone who wants a true six speed ( The 2015 will have a different sixth gear per the data released) and even more of a discount since dealers will have even more discretion on the 2013 since they already received some dealer cash a while back.
