    Multitasking: Changed my plugs and became "one" with my GTS!

    Re: Multitasking: Changed my plugs and became \"one\" with my GTS! Going back in for .003 inches. So you think you're gonna see that at the lights, huh? Let me suggest that a much bigger variable in your car's performance is at the end of your legs and between your ears. Learning how to...

    New Pilot Sports--advice on break in?

    Can I just say I'm in heaven??? I bought my ACR a year ago and had flat spots on the fronts. The wheels have clearly been out of balance all that time. I knew the new tires would make a difference, but OMG, I cannot BELIEVE how smooth the viper now drives!! I can't WAIT to get back to...

    New Pilot Sports--advice on break in?

    Hi all--thanks for all the advice on the tire issue. I had them installed today, though it took a while. They didn't scratch the car (shew! that was sooo stressful), but they left the rims all marked up with all the lub goop on the tires. Driving back to work I did the silly left-right-left...

    2003 Viper Vs. 2003 GT40. If price and power were the same, Which would you choose?

    Neither. I would take a 360 Modena 10 times out of 10 over that butt-ugly GT-40. I'd be embarassed to even DRIVE one. Sheesh. Maybe they should have come up with a new design, and not used the SAME GT-40 lines. At least with the SRT-10, I'd look kinda cool in a completely updated car...

    Brief SRT-10 segment on Motor Trend TV show

    I, too, set my ultimateTV to record all things viper (copying a former poster) and my whole family watched this segment closely. Best quote: "This viper, with 50 more horsepower, should easily have stronger accelleration than the previous viper, which was already pretty fast" Pretty fast...

    Probably a dupe, but great Comp Coupe pics

    <FONT size="20">The comp coupe is knockdown, electro-shock, tooth-pulsing, afterglow, heart-arythmia, 7-G passout, near-death-experience, loss-of-virginity, lottery-winning, in-FREAKING-credible!!!</FONT s>

    $100 Reward For Correct Tech Answer-No Bull

    This reminds me of that Bud-Lite commercial where the athelete was in the news conference talking about how success hadn't changed him, then, seeing the bud-lite, he asks a guy for it. At the guy's refusal he pops up with, "Well, then, how 'bout I just give you one million dollars!" Guess you...

    "As you can tell, there are no good body panels..."

    Re: \"As you can tell, there are no good body panels...\" Shocking...22 bids up to $10,100!! This car is gonna get more cash than my fully running, beautiful 96 z28 I sold a year ago ($10K). It's great to own a Viper!!!!

    How Many of You Drive Your Vipers Daily???

    I don't drive in the rain. Other than that, the viper gets used every day possible. It was really uncomfortable at first, but now my body is used to it. I've got the whole sitting down/getting out routine locked in. Even though Cali has 20% of all vipers made, I still sometimes feel special...

    2003 Dupont registry cover car

    Aak! It just keeps getting worse...I hope the sequel to Men In Black is better than this sequel. (of course, having just saw the previews, I'd be willing to bet on it)

    Yikes! ACR popped out of first this morning...should I be worried??

    I can imagine my chances of my Dodge mechanic here investigating it. "Hi, so what did you find?" "Nuthin. Never happened." "So, you aren't goint to take any other action?" "Nope. Works fine. They all do that." "I see. Well, thanks, then."

    To DC--I will buy the street version of the comp coupe. Please produce it.

    Looks aside, I won't buy the SRT for the same reason I didn't choose an R/T 10. DC, will you be supporting the hard-top crowd anytime soon?

    Post Arrow Questions

    I have a 99 and it runs like crap right after it looses battery (and programming). It quickly begins to run perfectly in a few days, though, as the computer learns.

    Yikes! ACR popped out of first this morning...should I be worried??

    I'm stopped at a light, gonna make a right. I slowly release the clutch to pull forward and...bang! car stops and shifter has moved to neutral. Put it in first, kept driving, no prob... Is this even possible for a healthy tranny? I can't imagine that I pushed the shifter only halfway into...

    Ugh...that story about the cops pulling you over because people call in makes me sick, seriously. I've had so many problems with traffic cops...all my life....I've had to learn to let it go. Suffice it to say that I think(know), at times, there is dishonesty in the profession. BUT, as of the...
