    Crankcase capacity

    Depends on the year as JonB would say.... My 96' takes 8.5 Qts. The viper tech usually puts in 9 so not to starve the engine of oil in fast cornering, racing applications.

    Age of viper owners?

    I can hear your horn all the way in Illinois..... Youngest, oldest, fattest, shortest, hay, who's got the biggest..... set of tires..... There is always someone younger, older, more intelligent and has 100X more $ than you. Relax and enjoy the car, and start asking some smart...

    How smooth is your Viper???

    Mine did that once. A renter put in bad gas. The car would run fine but hold it in 2nd at 40 and you could watchethe tack go up and down 200-300 rpm. It was really weird. Put a bottle of octane boost and reset the computer, done.

    WATER PUMP PROBLEM-YET AGAIN BEWARE!!!

    My 96' GTS never overheats or gets hot even with spirited driving. It still has the original radiator fan assembly. Is the problem with just the 00' & 01'?

    So what have you been spanked by while in your snake?

    Well, I'm retracting the Diablo loss the renter had... call it a tie. When I fixed my remote battery terminal siezed nut (another post), I reset the computer (Obviously) and took the snake out for a run, WOW, what a difference. I can see why everyone resets their computer before they run on...

    Street Etiquette

    1) Turn head toward jealous people. 2) Smile at jealous people. 3) Raise right eyebrow. 4) Tilt head at 30 degree angle... like the rock. 5) Lift right hand slowly extending index finger slightly. 6) Nod head. 7) If you have a gold tooth, open your mouth wide so the sun reflects off of it...

    Battery disconnect point seized

    I took Larry's advise and took apart the unit. I managed to get the nut loose. Joel, here is what you need to do: 1) Cover your sill with a large cloth so you will not chip the sill when, and I do say when, you drop a tool on it. 2) Disconnect the battery behind the rear drivers side wheel...

    Guess again if you think the GTS is safe in a roll over!!!

    JonB, Lets hear more about different treads. I just bought Pilot Sports for the rear and have P-Zeros up front. I don't see the car drifting, or notice any issues, etc. How many of us have this type of set-up?

    SNAKE WON'T START

    Re: SNAKE WON\'T START Check your battery connection! I had the exact same thing happen to me. I checked the connection at the terminal and found that I could loosen it with my fingers. Go ahead and reset the computer by disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it. Good Luck.

    So what have you been spanked by while in your snake?

    Wait! Hold the phone! Should have knocked on wood after the post. Well, I didn't have the forture of running it, but my best customer ran a new Diablo last night (1:00 am), no plates and all. He said they started around 60 or so..... Well, 12 cylinders later he was 3 car lenghts behind him...

    T&D Roller Rockers

    A good post! I'd be curious as well. With the mods we currently have, I'm not sure we'd feel the difference, if say, we put them in a stock car instead.

    So what have you been spanked by while in your snake?

    I guess I'll have to start looking for some modified ZR-1's. I've never had my snake at the track yet. I'd be curious what she would do.... TOOFAST, we must get to 66 SOON!!!!

    So what have you been spanked by while in your snake?

    I'm sure a new twin Turbo AWD Porsche would be a great match. I've just never seen one on the street. I've raced several cars with roll cages, NOS, and still haven't had anyone pull on me. I guess our cars are at the top of the food chain.... which is the best place to be....

    HUGE Cooling Problems with RT/10, Need Experts!!

    Not sure how you kept the car in "Warranty" status either. Most likely Dodge doesn't know. I couldn't even purchase an extended warranty, as any type of rental vehicle is not covered.

    So what have you been spanked by while in your snake?

    I seems that anything that lines up next to me in Chicago has no chance whatsoever..... there's just no competition out there for a safe 0-60 run-up on the street. I have several customers who always tell me of kill stories, never something that they lost to (Maybe they wouldn't tell me...)...
