    Did someone really mean it when they said the oem pads were 300-400 dollars?

    Is Z06 faster on the track than GTS?

    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by No Mercy: I think the issue is, which car is easier to go fast in. I believe that if you take "Joe the Guy", and drop him in each car for a lap or two he will do better in the Z06. The Viper, while faster...

    Z06 against SRT 10

    This is so old. "My Z06 is as fast as a viper." "I know because the dealer/GM magazines told me." <FONT size="10">460 != 385 or 405 NOBODY = 500 ft/lbs</FONT s>

    Are all certificates being used???

    There must be some SRT-10's not spoken for, right? Like--now that the deadline is past? Is it possible I can get one for close to MSRPish? Just for being a good guy and keeping my nose clean? Hey, zero tickets--did I mention that?

    Z06 against SRT 10

    If you pulled away from a GTS in a stock Z06 at anywhere near 60 mph: 1) he didn't care you were there. or 2) he was too lazy to shift out of 6th. Don't kid yourself. <FONT size="20">DO NOT KID YOURSELF</FONT s> Above 60 miles an hour, you could not "hang with" a *Gen I* in a stock ZO6...

    Returned to Dublin Dodge today. Run-around beginning.

    I totally agree, Jon--and anyhow, I did pay for the VHT hi-temp. That is to say, _I_ paid. It was like 200 dollars extra, but I did it. If I hadn't, would they be telling me that it's MY fault now--that I should have? Sheesh. Dodge needs to clean up their mess. This doesn't have to be a big...

    Returned to Dublin Dodge today. Run-around beginning.

    But Tomer--it's so far away! That's like...across the bridge! I'd rather develop a positive relationship if I can. I can hit this place with a rock from my balcony at work! It would be really nice if we could work it out. So--here's my plan. I've got a call into Chuck Tator for advice...

    I have been VIOLATED!!!!

    Brett--thanks for posting your bad experience. I'm cryin with ya, baby. That truly is horrible. There are people in the world with absolutely no morals or scruples--and they are all around us...like the matrix. It's also very sad to see some people who think they know everyone else's heart...

    Returned to Dublin Dodge today. Run-around beginning.

    Keith from Dublin Dodge just called. He said the factory's position on the side-sill yellowing was that if they've repainted it once, that I should take it back to the place I originally had it painted. (That would be petaluma dodge, in my case--almost 2 hours away on a good day--ugh) He also...

    1-2 shift - why wheelhopping?

    To add one more datapoint--I went to new pilot sports at 40psi all around. Wheelhop has completely disappeared. I don't expect it to last, however. On my worn pilot sports wheelhop got to be a fact of life.

    Paging all track guys...brake question

    I guess I want to race at a place where I can stay bone-stock. I think this leaves out Laguna. Perhaps autocrossing is for me?

    Under-rate HP .. why ?

    Ford didn't miss by a little--they missed by a LOT. This was a clear case of a coporation flat out lying. Does anyone here object if they don't get 460 corrected horsepower? Does anyone here sue dodge if their ACR dynos to 449 instead of the rated 460 after correcting for drivetrain? I...

    Searching the archives seems to indicate that non-copper is the way to go, in some opinions.

    Don't let the world pass you by....

    Re: Don\'t let the world pass you by.... If you're talking about the vette owners I know--forget it. They all think their car is faster than a viper already--see, that's what the dealer told them.

    ATTENTION NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. RECALL HELP?

    I would be willing to wait for this, I guess. Actually, I don't see the 999 as that big a deal.

    JonB: So what's the final result on ACR belts?

    JonB: So what\'s the final result on ACR belts? Jon-- I saw the team-tech belts--they are not good for me. I like to use the belts 100%, but don't really like the anti-sub belt for street driving. It seems like the team-tech belts force you to use it. Is there another fine option I could...

    Recall 999-dublin dodge

    Tomer-- Just got back from Dublin Dodge. I was turned away for 999. Kieth, a service writer, says they do not have the tools yet. I will go back when they do. He also appeared to be reluctant to repaint the side sills, though I think, I might be able to talk him into it. If I can't, I...

    Viper Recall #998 and #999 - READ BEFORE YOU GO TO THE DEALER

    I am told my car is only subject to the front end recall (999). How involved is this one? The Service tech told me it was 40 hours.
