Yeah well this is going to be your 1st Viper I take. So I kind of understand the position you're in,and how you feel. Me I got two Vipers,and the way things have been going. I'm really happy I bought my 010 ACR ..
SB I hear you man ,and understand how you feel. Me, I feel like I was a little duked. To me it seemed like Ralph was confident that this new Viper was gonna be superior over the ZR1 in every category. Confident by his tweets,and some of the things he said at the showing of the car. I really hope...
I don't blame emericr's feelings. The new Mercedez are FAST..

One of the problems was that the car was mis- advertised. Putting the power to weight a couple of steps ahead of the ZR1..
When I first saw this. I really thought that SRT really tested this car "in & Out"..
If they came out with a different approach. Like saying you're getting a Viper...
ZR1? The C6Z06 is faster 0-150mph,and posts the 2nd fastest lap time at Laguna. I dont know why SRT cant get the gearing down on these vipers. GM has aced it..
Stock street setting was (fronts) Compression 13 Rebound 18 ( Rear) Compression 13 Rebound 17.
When adjusting the rebound you want to crank it all the way +. Then count the clicks going back. I first dialed mine at 10 Rebound fronts,and 9 rebound rears. Now I'm at 9 rebound fronts and 8...
This..
After checking out the reviews,and hearing Randy Pobst saying that the car rides terrible in the video. Seems like the suspension is too sprung,and perhaps the shocks needs re-valving or finer re-adjusting. Laguna is a very smooth track,and the only thing there really is. Is a dip right...
One meter. It's a sound booth that's located between T5 and T6.
I'm surprised that these cars set the meter off. I have yet set off the meter in my stock Z06, or ACR,and I'm floored in 3rd going up the straight to T6..
I don't think there's anything wrong with those seats. It's the combination of the harsh suspension and chassis making it feel uncomfortable..
Yes the MSRC suspension is real good. It has been licensed by Ferrari for their current road cars,and Audi R8 too..
I really like the new steps they're taking..

I run laguna quite a bit,and having good solid brakes is important. When Randy said that he was cautious with the Vipers braking,and had to brake a little earlier before the turns. I knew what he meant..
It's great that SRT is back racing because the new Viper WILL evolve from this. It's the...
Good points man yes X2 on the car being over hyped. That is why I'm not going to be buying the 1st year model. Gonna wait another year or possibly two. Hopefully SRT will make those changes ^^ mentioned^^..
That was funny what Randy said "the Viper rides terrible but who cares on the race track".:rolaugh:
He's a cool guy really enjoy all his test drives at Laguna..
