Basically the nannies are wringing the last 5% of the performance out of the car for you. :smirk: Some things never change with Chevy.
Why don't they just build a full size remote control version and run it around the track utilizing a mapped out computer program instead. I bet they could...
I called to see if they made it through the one that ripped through their town, and the phone jsut rang and rang. Hopefully they are OK, but the video footage I saw on the weather channel showed a lot of devastation in the town:( I hope they are all safe and sound.
Didn't care for it, but I had just come out of the Bumblebee:cool: It had a back seat, and that summer I needed to do a lot of road work servicing my customer base so it served it's purpose. I traded it into Bill at Woodhouse for my Copperhead and supplemented my stable with the SRT8 for kid...
I grew up outside of Detroit, so I'm a bit biased towards American Cars!

Congrats on your purchase. My daughter was very excited by the prospect of driving this Viper, if I had just been able to work out a deal with the widow originally selling it:(. I guess she'll just have to wait a little longer before she can be a Viper gal.
Congrats on your acquisition. I was seriously Jonesing for this car, but the seller was such a waste job that I could never get things in motion. I suspect the dealer had his act together somewhat which made it easier on you. If you need Bob Soroka's contact information please drop me a PM. He...
A huuuge congrats Bob-
2 girls eh? Just wait about 13 or 14 years. You'll be keeping a close eye on every teen age boy that comes near 'em:D
Pretty soon you'll be needing one of these to haul your expanding crew around-

I had a Kenny's Auto Upholstery shop in Mission Viejo(949)582-0183 bend out the side bolsters and shave them down a bit so I could fit in better.
What about the seats don't you like? Have you considered using the Northwind lowering kit to change the angles a bit?
It wasn't anywhere near the realm of "Remy World" :nono: The fact that it had historical significance to the VCA makes it a unique and collector worthy Viper in my mind. Plus, I feel that Bob Soroka did an amazing job on it.
Bid is up to $48k. I wonder how the buyer is going to feel when he takes delivery of the car and realizes that the pictures were from 6 years ago and the "new" tires are the originals:nono:
How does EBay legally deal with something like this??
Since when did "Happy Hour" start at 3:30pm in Florida? I guess with everyone eating at the 5pm early bird special time they had to push back early drinking time too eh;)
Mid $30's for a 1-off Raffle car, I'd say it was definitely worth consideration! If the seller had been even the least bit cooperative I would have flown down to Florida to have it looked over properly. But, it was like pulling my own teeth to get any pictures or information out of him:crazy2...
I had been negotiating for over 5 months to purchase the custom Soroka painted Flame car from the widow of the original owner. Her son in law kept on delaying and dodging my requests for detailed pictures and accident information for months. At first he told me the car was in immaculate...
One day I had my 2002 GTS slip it's parking brake and roll off my driveway into the street:omg: Once it hit totally level ground it stopped- sideways in the middle of the street:omg:
My neighbor came over to complain about my "parking" job otherwise I wouldn't have known for hours :crazy2...
A big CA welcome to a new super-high HP Viper.
I've had dealings with "Tank" as well. He took my 2001 ACR back to Ohio for the new owner. Great guy and a fantasticly clean rig!
So it looks like you bought Dan's ACR correct? I had seriously considered it, but with the level of track performance he built into that thing it really belonged with a track rat. Congrats on your purchase. Enjoy it in good health:drive:
Most Gen2's are capable of 12 second 1/4's with a good driver. Some people have ripped off 11.70's or better. That's pretty darn exotic in most people's books.
Just wait till you get one sideways at 60mph and then tell us how "tame" a stock Gen2 is:lmao:
So, realistically how much more is a known tuner install(ie. RSI, DC Performance, Heffner, UGR) worth in respect to the pricing? If these tuners charge say $17k for a proper full-on Paxton/ fuel system/headers/exhaust and tune install, how much is it worth at resale?
