    Anyone take their dash out?

    That is great! Thanks. Now has anyone refinished or touched up scratches on the dash pad? Looks like a special finish coat on the dash surface?

    Anyone take their dash out?

    Scuffed the dash a little while taking the shifter out (laid the console against it). Don't know if I can sand on the scratches and ever get the finish back? Otherwise need to put in a replacement dash cover to make it right. How much is entailed in getting the dash pad out? Air bags...

    Goal of 500 rwhp or 11.5 et in the quarter or 130 trap

    60ft is key. Stock Viper with DR or ET Streets should go real close to your goal. About a 1.50 sixty should do it. PS: Invest in upgraded halfshafts!

    This time of year, unfortunately, you can find a GTS with under 30K miles for $28K or less. They are like the housing market, depressed!

    Vec 2 problem? or something else?

    I have a VEC 2 in my 96 GTS. Occassionally, it makes the car go flat, like a limp mode. I have my Zero card (stock) program in Sometimes when I start the car after storage it runs flat and will miss. Recently, at the Ohio Zone event it did the same thing while drag racing, the next morning...

    998 recall

    Most of the repairs I've seen are not pretty! Most dealers don't have a qualified welder. Like they said, if it ain't broke don't fix it. If a Viper buyer , say 10 yrs from now saw a repair in critical areas, he'd run!

    96 GTS inside door release stopped working

    1.375 was a perfect run driving thru the clutch at BG VOI back in early 2000s with MT tires. Could of been a miss print but my car regularly went low 1.40s in the sixty so this was a perfect run to the sixty but not far below what I usually go. If you could power shift a Tremic trans it would...
