    SCCA Mid Ohio National STO Report

    It will be a great car when it is all finished. Right now it is a T1 car with 300 lbs less weight and 90 more rear wheel HP. So my results reflect that. I have much more to do to fully develop the car. I have to mention that I have had some great guidance and support from vendors that support...

    SCCA Mid Ohio National STO Report

    Back home from the track...day went as I planned, hoped and expected. Pole, fast lap and track record and win. Not bad for the maiden voyage. The track was slower this weekend than the last time I raced at Mid Ohio. Last year had perfect conditions and I was able to set the T1 track record in...

    SCCA Mid Ohio National STO Report

    The maiden voyage of my new 2006 STO Viper is this weekend at the SCCA Ohio Valley Region's Mid Ohio "Race of Champions." I have the pole in STO over a Camaro and a Corvette, but the qualifying sessions were in the wet so we have no idea what each driver has for the others. Today's race will be...

    Lexan Rear Glass for Gen 3/4 Coupe

    Does anyone know if there is a vendor who makes a lightweight Lexan rear glass for a Gen 3/4 coupe? I already have a windshield. I know of a company named Shields, but their website does not list any glass for Vipers. Thank you in advance for any help.

    Whats better Belanger headers or ACRX headers?

    Re: Whats better Balanger headers or ACRX headers? My engine builder has recommended the American Racing header. The car is being built for SCCA's STO class and will resemble an ACRX with hopefully a bit more horsepower.

    Vipair hood is an excellent fit!

    I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my Gen 4 hood from Steve. Because my car is going to be raced, the fit and finish standards won't be as high as yours are (not that I am implying you are unreasonable). I am just trying to be patient for the delivery of the parts I ordered, and the racing...

    Differences between Gen III and IV

    What I am asking (and I am not trying to be a jerk about this, so please don't take it wrong) is can the Gen 4's superior characteristics be built into a Gen 3 motor? What are the big ones? Compression? The answer to that is "yes." Camshaft? "yes." Intake? "Yes." Cylinder heads? "yes" Trans and...

    Differences between Gen III and IV

    But can a Gen 3 motor be made more powerful than a Gen 4 if you didn't limit yourself to "bolt-on" mods, but kept it normally aspirated?

    Differences between Gen III and IV

    Why would you need 100 more HP in the same chassis to achieve the same results?

    club "doorman" makes funny comment

    Good response. Not that I really care about this, but your comment probably means you're a bit more well-endowed. But who's measuring? Not me! :rolaugh:

    Racetech Seat in Gen III Coupe?

    Mark, My car will not have door panels, so do you know if the interference is removed when the door panels are taken out? Thanks for your insight. BTW, the Racelogic arrived Friday.

    Racetech Seat in Gen III Coupe?

    Does anyone have any experience with putting a Racetech seat in a Gen 3? I am looking at the RT4009HR. The RT4009HRV is called the "Viper" seat, so I know it will fit. However, the RT4009HR is about $1000 less expensive, so I do have to at least consider it. The dimensions on the two are very...
