    Dave's Big Brakes work great!

    Re: Dave\'s Big Brakes work great! Yes, I did replace the hubs in the process. I discovered they were bad after I got everything apart.

    Four questions: Where is Sebring? Is this a drag racing event? Any spots left for rookies? What's this about a pumpkin?

    Motons -- Which ones for serious tracking?

    Janni has provided a great deal of info that has cost her and Henry a lot of time and money to get. I think that is awesome. Thanks Janni. That being said, be careful about getting too worried about getting into a situation where you are getting bogged down with car setup until you have reached...

    Would you trade your Viper for a Ford GT?

    I had the opportunity to drive a Ford GT on the track not too long ago. Wasn't my car so I certainly didn't take it at or near the limit - but here is my take. Comparing SRT10 to FordGT on the track: Brakes = Both are very good. The SRT back end wiggles under hard braking without aftermarket...

    OK St. Louis Zone Rendezvous Attendees - Let Us Unfortunate Souls .....

    Ouch. That's okay, hear it all the time at Viperdays. I'd say less than 5 people ran less than a :43 Adee officially ran a 40.? He later ran some extra runs and got it to 39.? stating that there definitely was still more in it. I ran a 38.? and two 37s with plenty of witnesses including the...

    OK St. Louis Zone Rendezvous Attendees - Let Us Unfortunate Souls .....

    What an awesome event. I can't say enough about the sacrifices Dave and Lisa have made over the last few MONTHS planning and preparing for this event to make sure everyone coming had a great time. This includes getting up in the middle of the night because the hotel's fire alarm went off to go...

    2001-2002 Anti-Lock brakes: just how good are they?

    Chuck's right, that's not him, that picture was taken in the white run group. :cool: That picture was taken at my second track event, Viperdays finals at Texas World Speedway a couple years ago. The red/stripes car behind was Jeff Snell and the solid red car was my instructor who was the...

    2001-2002 Anti-Lock brakes: just how good are they?

    Give me a break (pardon the pun). It's all in the ABS? Actually, all you need is a (non existent) RSI motor. Brakes just slow you down (1 part of the equation). All other things being equal, fast lap times are a result of high turn entry speed and high turn exit speed. This has to do with...

    Viper Days at Putnam Park, IN - August 12th, 13th & 14th

    Okay Nascar - RSI Viper, turbo, nitrous, ABS, traction control, sequential transmission, Kuhmo tires molded to look like Michelin, etc, etc, etc, etc. How about we teardown for pinkslips? If it's stock, I get your car. If the motor is not stock you get mine. Putnam is one of my favorite...

    Viper Days at VIR????

    Congrats Eyal, great job! That is an awesome time. It's a good thing you are a better driver than you are with grammer and spelling. :D Scot Young was having a similar battle with Flyin Bryan in SS class. I think modified was also hotly contested. There were some great battles going on, with...

    Viper Days at VIR????

    Thanks Dave. Like there isn't enough speculation yet on what is in my car. There was plenty of interest in my pit when we had the engine apart to replace a head at Mid America Raceway in Iowa. They all saw it then, just the way it came from the factory. A stock 421RWHP "creampuff" with a dyno...

    Viper Days at VIR????

    Hey Chuck, you'd be faster if you kept all 4 tires on the ground ;) Nice picture of la machine. Don't wash it, and definitely, don't paint it. You've had more fun than most with your car. Our first time to VIR. Awesome track. It met and exceeded the hype it gets, what a great event. It was...

    Rotor's gone bad?? Pics inside.......

    Re: Rotor\'s gone bad?? Pics inside....... Looks like a hot spot due to warping. Those spots have developed cracks from excessive heat from the warping. This is from the brake pads hitting the warped areas even when you are not braking. The shaking under braking is another clue. You are...
