    Purchasing a 96 GTS, Questions?

    One of the best things to do is take a current owner / VCA member with you when you have decided on a car. Do a search, it should turn up everything you need.

    What triggered you to buy your first Viper? What was it?

    In 1997, I vacationed in Maui for my 5th wedding aniversary. When I got to the hotel they had all of these brochures in the corner by the front desk. Low and behold "Rent a Viper" was at the top (So how many of you rented that Yellow RT-10 in Maui?) I took that car all the way around Maui...

    Transmission info please

    Depends where you bought it I guess. I just purchased a t-56 from a guy who bought it from a R&D shop. It's a 2000, brand new, never had a vin punched into it. This may be your case. I'm sure you've done your homework on the trans and it is a true t-56, etc.

    dont take what u have for granted!

    Alex, We all start somewhere. Some of us have it handed to us and others "make it happen". Also, for all of those who want to have a car like this or have ANY other "GOAL" no matter what the costs may be, it all comes down to one simple saying, it's not how much you make, it's what you save...

    Locking Viper Engine Hood

    I actually had this piece made out of hardened stainless when she first posted it. It works but it won't stop someone from poping it open if they really want to get under the hood. Here's why. 1) The handle is plastic and can be bent or cut off. 2) The piece has to be made perfectly to remove...

    Has anyone replaced their pedal set?

    I don't know anyone selling a total replacement set, just covers. I believe all years have welded pedals. Good luck.

    Drove a Viper to 12.6@115

    O.k. I'm far from being a pro but I learned a lot since I took my snake to the track for the first time last Friday. My best was a 12.08 @ 113 after 8 runs. Here's some things that I've learned aside from John b's post: 1) Always shift into 4th at the end of the track. I have a slow mph on...

    HELP - Window Problem

    Chuck, So does it work normally now? It could be several things. I replaced my drivers side window motor myself (posted it too). It could be: 1) Loose track. 2) Worn motor. 3) The cables could be kinked somehow. 4) Your weatherstriping that runs the side of the window is coming loose and...

    My first trip to the dragstrip.

    I think I figured it out. My last run I thought was the best because I hit 4th nice and clean at the end. That's when I had the 118mph. All of the other runs have a low MPH due to me not going into 4th, hitting the rev limiter and coasting through the last 50-100 feet or so. Here's the...

    My first trip to the dragstrip.

    At first I wasn't and I would hit the rev limiter about 50 feet before the end. The wierd thing was that MOST of my mph's were low.113.9,112.8,114.9,115.1,118.2,112.5,112.0. The 118.24 had a 12.117 1/4 mile.

    My first trip to the dragstrip.

    Thanks to all who made it to DA GROVE in Wisconsin today. It was my first time and I had a blast. It was a nice cool day too (55 degrees). Headwind wasn't that great but we all lived with it. I ran the snake 8 times. All of them were within 1-2 tenths of each other. Here was my best run...
