    Not happy today, just got beat, twice !

    That 12c was probably a pre-update car (25 hp less than current 12c's). The analog cars are fun! Viva la Gen1. (They remind you how hard it is to drive fast)

    Not happy today, just got beat, twice !

    Re: A more relevant race would be a 2013 VIPER vers the McLaren The 12c. You may want to check out drag times, you tube, etc. I can't find a 2013 Viper running a 10 & I can't find a 12c running an 11.... I wouldn't put stock in a magazine review. This is just one of many on the tube...

    Re: A more relevant race would be a 2013 VIPER vers the McLaren I'll take that challenge. If it helps the cause I won't even touch the paddles :D

    C7 Smokes GenV

    Great... Now our wives have video proof that we men don't change with age! We all know this was staged for video... No chick dropping arms to start, no beers between drivers legs, no pinky ring on Vette driver....

    Not happy today, just got beat, twice !

    To your point, my 10# Gen1 with a 255l and boost-a-pump ran out of fuel at 5500 and started getting dangerously lean - supplemented with water/meth. A 2nd 255l and 1/2" fuel lines and I had more fuel than I knew what to do with at any rpm. I was running the 2.4l and we saw almost 700/770 with...

    "Street" being the key word regarding launches. From a roll its anyone's game if you have the traction (at least until the 1st turn :D ). The only point folks should know about the 12c is that it is consistently fast in all conditions, every time. Not "I wasen't in the right gear", "my turbos...

    Encounter with a "Tree-Hugger"...Has this ever happened to you?

    I just say it belongs to my a-hole boss...I'm just the assistant....

    Not happy today, just got beat, twice !

    A stock 12c vs a SC Viper is not a fair fight. But it's fun to try. I'm not even sure a TT Viper would do much better. The 12c is fast every time, a TT Viper all depends on X, Y, Z. With launch control on the 12c a Viper stands no chance on the street (ok, I'm sure there's that one or two...

    The hits just keep coming! Porsche 918 lapped "The Ring" IN 6:57

    The ACR needs active aero. Ring is too big and straights too long to be competitive with a 180'ish top end and a 5000+ pound car (at speed). Adding some of the techno stuff to the ACR would make it a $300k car. But adding all that tech to a Viper is like producing a 4000 pound Lotus or a...

    Gen 1 Parts available

    Parts are starting to sell. I'm letting these go at half the new price. The items labeled "NIB" are New In Box or NOS (New Old Stock) if you prefer that term. If you are considering any of these accessories for your Gen 1, you will not buy them NIB cheaper than this. I won't let them go for...

    Twin turbo life expectancy

    Nope.... A base TT kit is at least 850hp and 950 tq. Stock bottom ends are on the fringe at 900 tq (forged). Now consider an 1100+ Hp 1200+ tq build, forged or not it's just a matter of time, a short time.

    Twin turbo life expectancy

    They all eventually blow up and cost a lot of money to fix. If you want a faster car than a Viper there are many options available. Consider a TT Viper like a boat.....hole you throw money in. Talk to any TT owner and ask for the "truth".

    Gen 1 Parts available

    I'm getting tons of e-mails asking how much. Most of this stuff is NIB. Look up the price with VPA, etc. Make me an offer over 50 cents on the dollar, pay the shipping/handling and the parts are yours.

    I think the book is specific to 1994, but I could be wrong.

    Gen 1 Parts available

    Ad pending approval. Hopefully someone will make me an offer on the whole lot and take it all for pennies on the dollar. Folks can price this stuff out on VPA or similar. Not on the ad I have a really cool Sneaky Pete sign made for my garage wall that is about 16"x16" and looks like the...

    Gen 1 Parts available

    Tomorrow morning the Gen 1 leaves to another owner leaving me Viperless. This as a result leaves me with a ton of Gen 1 parts available - about 50% NIB. All of my spares purchased simply because they were either wear or consumable items or simply items that I thought I may need down the road...

    08 ACR Listed For Sale

    Call it whatever you want - just put in the add text somewhere that it does NOT have the 21B package - this will tell everyone that is a purist that the car is not a "factory" ACR. A simple scan of the window sticker and inclusion in the add photos would be full disclosure. Maybe list the car...
