Winkles recently spoke at an MVCO event and specifically mentioned Lambo work on design of the water jackets to accomplish extremely consistent temperatures (within 3 deg.) over the length of the block.
Ron,
Nice power, but I don't recall you actually PASSING me this time :lmao: , not even in the pits.
Seriously though, thanks for arranging everything. It's good to meet more and of the guys each time. :2tu:
Agreed, great event Ron and Mike. Thanks for all the effort to set it up and run it.
I took quite a few pictures (of the green, yellow and red groups). I'll post them shortly.
Oh yeah, Hi COPMGNT, Leslie, and Ken.
Dave,
Great meeting you and your son. Good to see some pics of my #43 in action.
Your son has a great eye for framing a shot. I'll pass along a great tip i learned a little while back. On the side shots of the cars, if you slow down the shutter speed and pan the camera in sync with the with the...
Welcome to the club. Dust magnet - Yes, especially the rear bumper cover ledge. Best color? Yes. Fastest Color? - Almost, the ones with silver stripes are definitely the fastest.
Red,
I was a newbie at Mid-Ohio last year after buying my ACR in Febrary and only having a month of seat time in it before the event. If you have any questions about what to expect, PM me. I should be there again this year.
My tires were 1/2 gone and looked to be about 4 years old, but I...
SYNFULL,
Having a salvage title will probably affect resale value more than the absence of the original ACR wheels, however as a salvage car it wouldn't really surprise me if it didn't have the original wheels.
As an ACR owner and very recent purchaser, I was specifically looking for an ACR if...
03gobluecobra,
Lidio did most of the work on my 95 Cobra about 10 years ago and just last year we put in a new clutch, tranny, and shocks. I was going to take the Viper over to his shop and get a baseline dyno run on it before I start any N/A mods. The Cobra's no speed demon, but a huge step up...
As a side note, at Viper Days Mid-Ohio we were marveling at the C6 Corvettes (2 of them) that were getting new brake pads. Apparently GM is sourcing ONLY left side rotors for front and back, and flipping them around for the right side of the car. The rotors aren't slotted on the sides that you...
You might try X2 Builders if you can't find them anywhere else. They seem to be parting out quite a few compatible donor cars. I've never bought from them and I can't vouch for them but I may buy a center arm rest from them soon.

I just happened to be looking through Viper related stuff on eBay and came across them. I think the buy it now price for front OR rear "ACR BBS" wheels was around $300 each with a buy it now. I never looked into them any further though. They...

Try this site. I have no idea of the quality of the wheels here.

If this concerns you, I highly recommend an article addressing this topic written by the guy that built my 95' Mustang Cobra almost 10 years ago (my numbers are in my sig. My best is a 12.68 @ 117 with BFG DRs)

Here are the important bits:

Welcome,
1. Don't drive it. ;)
2. Use nothing but Microfiber products and fold them so that the stitching around the edges of them doesn't touch the car. Use a good detailing spray on your microfiber like Maguiers or Adam's Polishes.
3. Invest in a GOOD QUALITY fitted car cover and learn...
Bruce, sorry I missed you guys this year. Perhaps I'll make it out Friday evening for a few hours. My 11 week old son makes it tough to get out much since I travel a lot for work.
I've driven in the cruise a few times in the past but it just isn't worth the gas and heat to sit there in a...
