It's a beautiful car, but thank goodness for those stickers, otherwise, I wouldn't have known what kind of car it is.

IMHO, putting all of the same stickers as the race car and imitating the look would be one thing......but just putting the one billboard of a Dodge emblem on there just doesn't look right. But that's just my opinion. That's all.


If Dave likes it then more power to him.:2tu:

Dave, I was waiting to see the words "OK, truth is the pic was photoshopped, real pics of goodies installed coming in June" but it appears to be true!

Nice job dude!:2tu: Looks great and in record time too!:lmao:

First off, I'm going for kind of a pseudo race car deco look.

I will take a stab at this one,

Do you race it on a track?
If yes, then I will give you the "race car" bit.
If no, well then the answer is no.


More importantly,
Is the car legal to race in any class?

Yes, race car.
No, street car.


This is fun. When is the next "test"?

If we'll all notice the title of the thread is "New Rims, New Tires, New Brakes, New Pics". Dave threw some new stuff on his car and wanted to share. It wasn't a "bash my personal taste and attack me over a decal" thread. This thread has gotten way off-track with people focusing on all the wrong details.

My proposition is to comment on the wheels, tires, brakes or pics, as intended, and this is my attempt to get the thread back on track. It's turning into a p!ssing match when it was supposed to be about sharing some mods with the masses.

I agree. We should all stop focusing on those enormous white Dodge stickers
:D

Dave,

All ribbing aside, I appriciate your efforts in contributing to this great forum where people can share their passion for Vipers. Your sled has a lot of potential and I hope you continue to post 7000+ posts a year. Go get um sport! :2tu:

Looks great but lose the Dodge logo on the sidesills.

UNSOLICITED ADVICE TIME:

Lose the Autoform wing and stripes. Only GTSs look good with stripes, and the Autoform wing just makes it look like a wanna-be GTS.

Humor, ever hear of it?

If the smileys in my post and the way I worded it did not show it, I am playing along with a bit of humor.

Hijack over...


Car does look great, Dave.









Just lose the Dodge sticker, or add some more that are also appropriate.

While killing others for fun might be a dandy way of passing the time where you live... I don't think threats of splattering people all over ones back lawn over some forum smack is acceptable behavior on this forum.

and to help keep this thread on topic...

Dave, any plans on lowering your car? It would look better IMO if it did. I would suggest a set of Penske's.

I've heard of humor and good-natured ribbing, but your post comes off as condescending, mocking and patronizing. Quoting someone to seemingly show conflicting statements in an effort to publicly embarrass them or prove them wrong doesn't come off as funny...it comes off as arrogant and self-righteous, especially give it has nothing to do with the original post.

I'm all about humor, but hijacking a thread to try and make a fool of someone isn't funny.

I did stop my hijack, but you so want to continue.

Just refreshing ones memory is all. :confused: See bold above.
All I did was take and quote his questions, and used again his very own quotes, to answer them. :2tu:

Haven't you been payin' attention?

He wants to give them Texas style BBQ and their own 12 gauge shotgun! Hell, this clown from California even wants to bring over a cooler of cold ones too!

:rolaugh:

ps. Nice car, lose the Dodge sticker

You are being SO generous Tobes! If this thread is an example of "smack", then Schieve and Rockstar (et. al.) were shadow writing for William Buckley.

But as usual.....I digress. :D

I miss the epic eruditionists of smack.

Rockstar, an honorable mention worthy of conversation around the campfire but oh, our great poodle lover Scheive. The IQ of Einstein and more redneck than Bo and Luke Duke. God Bless that great American. :usa:

Hi Dave. The changes are definitely for the better. The one thing I think you now need to reconsider is the word DODGE on the side of the car. It really takes away from the overall look and clean lines of the car. If someone does not know that a Viper is a Dodge, that person is too dumb or ignorant to be out and about unescorted.


My thoughts exactly. Car is gorgeous otherwise!
