    OFFICIAL SRT-10 POLL!!! THUMBS UP or THUMBS DOWN?

    I replaced my 99 ACR with an 01 GTS in February. I had the SRT10 certificate, and I still want a convertible someday, can't knock the improvements, but it just didn't do much for me in the oooh-zow-eee department. So I'll keep the 01 GTS until they come up with a comp-coupe for the street or...

    Red Light Runners in Dallas

    I had the same experience: driving my Ram and stopped at a red light in downtown San Francisco. A few seconds later, wham. Get out of truck to find a civic with his hood punched in by my trailer hitch. Asked him how he managed to hit me after stopping and he says, "sorry, I was tuning the...

    Anyone buy from Woodhouse

    When I went to replace my 99 with an 01, I tried a number of dealers in the Bay Area. After being so ticked off by their lousy behavior, I figured I'd try this dude in Nebraska. Bill was excellent, no complaints, great price, quick delivery, help with the paperwork, for he's a jollly good...

    Official OTC results and recap (long)...

    Congratulations guys! Excellent showing...I've been following the teams progress on the Pulpracing site (curse the OTC for running such a massively cool event and not updating the results daily) and cheering on the Vipers from a distance. Great job!

    All bay area vipers......

    Well I have to work in Dallas most of the week, but if I make it back by Friday, I'll try to come up for the races. Now my new viper still has only 1000 miles, so I may not want to beat on it too hard, but if I can make it, we'll see what she can do....

    How do the youger Viper owners afford their Vipers?

    I joined a startup software company in 1996 just before they went public. At the time the annual revenue was $15m with 200 employees. Six years later, I'm still at the same company, only now our revenue is closer to $1.5b with 5000+ employees. Stock. Also six years of consistent hard work...

    Any ideas on how to erase the "graffiti" on the dashboard? It sure is plug ugly.

    Orange? Help me Understand this!!!

    Orange is superfly! No politics, I simply think it would look great. I have a certificate, a silver ACR, and cool air, but that orange would be creamy!

    Just curious...about people who own Silver Vipers

    No noticeable blotchiness on mine. However, the front fascia sometimes looks slightly lighter in colour in bright sun, but I think this is more due to a difference in reflection angle than a defect in the paint. Cheers, nik

    Vipers airbags strike like a coiled snake...

    Courage, Nadine, courage. Terrible news about your mishap, but excellent that you survived relatively untouched. So I guess I'm happy and sad for you. Good luck with the rebuild!! Regards, Nik

    GT2&ACR'S - 5-POINT BELTS - FIRST ONE TO DO IT!!

    Re: GT2&ACR\'S - 5-POINT BELTS - FIRST ONE TO DO IT!! I tried. Called both the DC service center and warranty center, one transferred me to the other. I had the intent to recall notice in hand with the NHTSA bulletin. They told me just a couple weeks ago that an OFFICIAL recall was coming in...

    Good Dodge dealership in Northern California, Bay Area for warranty work?

    Hello Rapture, Welcome to the club. I'm in Berkeley, where are you? Anyway, I have strong opinions on this subject. Here goes: Negherbon Dodge, Oakland - avoid like the plague. Absolutely horrid customer service, terrible technical skills, wouldn't know a Viper if it bit them on the...you...

    Anyone know the story? (crash pics)

    I found the following pictures on Doug Hayashi's Pulp Racing web site. It appears to be two vipers crashing at Buttonwillow very recently. Does anyone know the story behind it? Doug's summary is very vague, but at least it sounds like no one was injured! I hope both drivers are ok, and...

    Having Hard Time Selling

    Paint flames and a dolphin on the car and raise the price to $230k. Oh wait, that doesn't work.

    Chuck shows a tire wall who's boss

    Re: Chuck shows a tire wall who\'s boss Interesting comment: "Michelins grease up..." I've never heard that said before, but I've experiences the tires getting slippery during lapping on the track. I was always told that street tires don't go "off" in the same way as slicks and that I was...

    Chuck shows a tire wall who's boss

    Re: Chuck shows a tire wall who\'s boss Thanks for the comments on tires. I keep putting off the decision to get a set of race wheels and tires (cost v. usage), but it seems like the more times I go out to a track, the more I'm starting to notice things like the tires getting slippery. Which...

    SRT Confirmation

    4778. Question: they had my address wrong, how do I get D.C. to change this in their records? I've notified several dealerships and the warranty service center...still always they have my old address. I'm not sure yet if I'll get the SRT10, but I like the process they have set up. Thank...

    99 ACR Suspension Question(s) (new owner)

    Don't know about the GTS suspension, but my ACR seems to be adjustable for damping and rebound. There are two tiny dials at the top which have multiple (8?) positions for each. And yes, the car can be lowered although I hear most people don't drop more than 1/2" to 3/4". Hope it helps.

    Viper Scam on Ebay

    Then my sincere apologies to DONT TRY, for mistaking the coincidence. I did not intend to disrespect a legitimate owner, I was only surprised at the coincidence. I wonder how many yellow '01 GTS vipers there could be in Alhambra? Anyway, sorry if my paranoid nature went too far.

    Viper Scam on Ebay

    Just a thought...hope I'm wrong, but I noticed the seller on ebay is from Alhambra, CA. Also noticed that a new member on the VCA board here "DONT TRY" is from Alhambra, CA, joined only a couple weeks ago. DONT TRY has a 2001 Yellow GTS with "no engine" listed in his signature, along with an...

    Here is a interesting thought or question on 5 point harnesses...

    Officer Friendly sure seemed to be amazed when he pulled me over and saw me wearing the ACR 5-points. "Buckled in there real good, aintch?" "Are those things legal? Don't look legal to me, son." Of course I may have done an illegal u-turn. The horror! Anyway, I wear the harnesses sometimes...
