    2000 Vipers are no creampuffs

    I gotta agree with the big guy here. When we did our local dyno day I don't remember a single 2000 / 2001 that pulled anything in the 400's. Compare my numbers to SloCal's. If I only gained 5 rwHP from a set of Belanger headers I would not be happy. The '96's kick ***!!! (and it you're Big Jim...

    Lethargic GTS or jaded driver?

    It does not sound right to me. I can break my tires lose from a roll in first or second gear, no clutch required. But I do have to pick the right RPM range. Stop wondering and go find a dynojet. I know they are a little harder to find in the UK, but they are out there. Just don't take your...

    Competition Coupe Pictures

    Hey Joe, Maybe this is the first you east coasters have heard of it. But that car was announced at the Midwest Regional several weeks ago. Although all we got to see were pictures...

    Anyone have nice pictures of babes posing with Vipers?

    Barry, We do have to get together. Bring you blond friend and I'll bring my brunette wife! You can find us pretty much every Friday at the Gilmer Road house. But we normally leave the Viper at home in the interest of more cocktails.

    I am sincerely determined to acquire one of these competition coupes.....

    You might want to also consider Autoform's Club Racer. I'm not sure what it's future is now that DC has a factory version. But it should be much easier to obtain. They have 2 options, a complete race car on a tube chasis, or you can get a wrecked Viper and they will build it up from there...

    Anyone have nice pictures of babes posing with Vipers?

    Ok, that is 7 posts (8 with mine) and NOT ONE SINGLE PICTURE! Well at least we didn't piss off Tony... One the subject of self-moderation, I would suggest that only links be posted here. Will that help Tony?

    Viper Winters in the Midwest

    Just a typo Steve. I ment to say 450 rwHP. I edited the original post to correct it! I'm looking at Mike Pavloff's which is making over 450 to the wheels with Borla headers plus my mods. Sean, Yes that is just some blue silicone lines to start replacing the black lines. Long term I plan to...

    Want Viper Spin Out School/Venue

    I agree! My problem is that out of 5 vehicles, only my Viper is RWD. I have a friend who has a beater mustang though. And I'm pretty sure he would let me take it out and play.... Hey, I just figured out what mustangs are good for...

    Oil Change - Quickie Lube?

    I take my snake to my local Oil Express. The stock the 15-50 Mobil-1 and the Mobil-1 oil filter just for me. Total cost is $78 and I get to go under the car and have a look around every time. It is always a fun time. All other work in the shop stops while I'm there and they take real good care...

    Viper Winters in the Midwest

    Better Belt? you mean there is an upgrade JonB has not tried to sell me? Details please! Headers and low restriction cats will be in the pile for this winter. I need to get over 450 rwHP. It is obvious that I'm still lacking in driver ability, so I'll look to more horsepower to get me into the...

    Viper Winters in the Midwest

    I got my first Viper last fall. After only a few months of playing it was time to put her away. So what does a new Viper owner do all winter long here in the snowy midwest? Buy aftermarket parts of course: I wanted to post this months ago, but I just finished getting all this on the car. Next...

    96 GTS Running running a little warmer than I would like.

    I have the upgraded cooling fan and Sean Roe's silicone hoses on my '96. It still gets hotter than I would like once in a while, but it cools down MUCH quicker. My last step is to install the run-the-fan-even-when-the-engine-is-off setup that I got from Sean. These are all very cheap insurance...

    This is an "airplane" car...

    Re: This is an \"airplane\" car... I got an airplane ticket going through Iowa once. Suprised the hell out of me as the radar / lasar dector never went off and I was pretty well surounded with other cars going more or less the same speed. There was a Testarosa pulled over just a few miles...

    Caught In The Rain???

    I took my Viper home from the dealer in the rain. And I will get up in the morning, see that it is raining, and take the Viper to work. You just have to be real, real, easy on the gas. Of course I have a GTS so I don't have to worry about leaks. Don't even think of driving the car in the snow...

    help... Viper questions..

    VinMan, I'm in your neck of the woods. If you want to see what the original GTS is like, just send me Email. One of the best ways to compare years is to come to Fudruckers in Schaumburg the first Wednesday of each month for our VCA meeting. If the weather is good you'll see 20 to 30 different...
