Crap. Just registered for VOI X at 9 PM last night. Didn't read this post until today.
In any event, I've been well-served by Jon over the years, and his incentive for this VOI and his overall Viper enthusiasm are to be admired!
100% concur with everything Bugbuggerer wrote. We are fortunate to have Ralph behind these cars.
I ran in the same group as Bug & Ralph (I drove a little 1500 LB kit car instead of my Gen 2 ACR), and I experienced max wake turbulence when Ralph blew by in that '08 ACR. That guy can drive...
I'll be there.
Looks like we have 10 or more Vipers coming?
Note: I saw a '08 SSG w/white stripes SRT-10 conv a few days ago in Va Beach heading west on I-264. Anyone know who that is? First Gen 4 I've seen on the southside.
First crab feast I missed in years. Pit Bitch'd for wife at VIR, who is 3 months pregnant. This was her last track event for a while, so we had to do it!
It was a bummer not seeing Biff there the last couple of times. Nobody can engulf 37,000 crabs faster than he!
Looks like it was fun...
Nothing new there. Remember 1987 Buick GNX's selling for over $40K?
First edition ZR1s almost 20 years ago doing $100K? I know of a guy who bought four of those at that price. Took a serious bath.
1992 RT/10s doing $100K?
And, most recently, local dealers here in Hampton Roads, VA...
My 2000 has 37K miles (I bought it with 11K) and has had the s**t kicked out of it on the track for over 6 years. Has the Koni setup. No shock issues, except when I had a ton or so of Bugeater weight (owned the car until 4 years ago) in my passenger seat at a recent track event. THUMP coming...
Personal & observed experience: the C5Z is a capable car, but not at all rugged when driven hard.
The Gen 2 Viper is a very rugged car.
Several of my track pals (HPDEs & some racing) have tracked their C5Zs over the past two years. Headers, intake/airbox mods seem OK. The guys who went...
A Gixxer turbo and a '08 SRT Coupe. You're a fortunate man!
Sign up for Viper Days and learn what that SRT will do on the track. You'll be a much better and more satisfied driver for the experience. You'll learn and do far more than you will at the SRT track experience.
Congrats - great car!
