    SCARY...Psychic knew @ Viper

    Why is it that all of the psychics are not millionaires? I'd think they'd be able to pick some #'s. Seriously, it's entertainment, nothing more..... cheaper than the boats......

    Viper vs Porshe 911 Turbo in Quarter Mile

    HP means NOTHING if you can't put it to the ground. Think of it as your snake with slicks, that's what AWD is on a Porsche. It all comes down to 60' times. I bet the Porsche can deliver a 1.7-1.8 each time while we fight for the 1.9. After 60' it's over.....

    What does your Viper Weigh???

    I rented the Viper for a booth at McCormick place some months ago. They have you weigh in prior to driving into the shows. With a 1/4 tank of gas and the mods below it weighed 3,380.

    97' parts on a 96 GTS?

    97\' parts on a 96 GTS? My GTS was built on 9/18/96. When I went to take it in for a new serpintine belt they said that they had to put a 97' on it instead. They explained that they ordered a 96' and it didn't fit. They later explained because it was built in 9/96, that a 97' belt was the...

    Tires-How old is too old ?

    Based on experience you should replace them if any of the following apply: 1) If tread depth is less than 3/32. 2) If they are more than 3 years old. 3) If the tire has worn unevenly and is "balder" in spots. 4) Any type of wear (mfg. into the tire) mark showing. 5) Tire shows any defect...

    DRAG RACING QUESTIONS - NEED EXPERTS HELP

    I'm far from an expert but I hear shifting at the top of your HP curve is the way to go. Have your car Dyno'd and look to see where you make peak HP.

    Did I ruin my tire.............?

    If you're uneasy about the tire, buy a rim, patch the tire from the inside and make it your spare. Then go buy yourself a new tire.

    Pulley separated from power-steering pump....why?

    I remember doing 130mph in a 71 SD trans am. The car shook so much I thought it was going to fall apart. I can still remember shouting.... SHUT IT DOWN! SHUT IT DOWN!. Just after that scary run, at idle, the harmonic balancer lat go sending parts / pully's / belts everywhere. Hate what would...

    Darn, you should have told me earlier... um sorry sir, the viper is NOT available Saturday, nope, it's, um, rented, yea.... that's it. I'd be there if it wasn't out. Wonder if the wing would slow me down....

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to remove the nut under the shifter?

    This nut is "jammed" meaning, that alone, the nuts are just that, spinning freely up the bolt. Once they are brought together and tightened using opposite force, they become unmoveable and thus your shifter will not spin. To unjam the nut, just do the oppisite. Sit in the drivers seat, take...

    A question about missing

    Here are a few thing I've learned on the forum in respect to this issue: 1) Make sure your drivers side throttle cable opens first. 2) You most likely checked for error codes. You may have one in your computer and it's still creating a problem. 3) Disconnect the battery (do #2 first) and...

    ok, Educate me.....

    Jon, Still want the proof. I'm not discounting the fact. Hell, I'll turn around and sue the place that put my tires on because they made it "Dangerous". If you find an article or have seen published tests then I'll bite, otherwise it's just smack to me.

    ok, Educate me.....

    I guess I'll chime in here as I've touched upon this topic before in my "Viper a piece of junk" thread. I simply would just like some proof. Something that says..... "we tested two different tires and found that adhesion lost .0345 of an inch...blah blah blah. It's easy to say there are a...

    Disconnect alternator for faster timeslips?

    I'm confused here. There is just one belt driving everything. Are you saying to un-bolt the a/c compressor? I think if you bypassed it you would need a different size belt.

    NEED GOOD ADVICES

    If you have to pull off the entire rear facia, mask tape the top of the bumper so you don't scratch it while you are pulling it off. I did this when installing my Hennessy wing.

    HENNESSEY: the final chapter!!

    I have seen a lot of great entrepreneurs go out of business as of late. It's wierd how it happens. These people have VERY creative minds but find a way to end belly-up. The other thing is that they'll start something else up just as quickly and make oodles of cash once again because they are...
