...is certain to keep my wives head (or stomach!) spinning for days to come. Having the '03 TT vert returned on Friday with 970RWHP, the wheels spinning & tires smokin' we set off for a cruise through the mountains of the Shenandoah Valley this past weekend...of course, with the top down. :drive:

We bought our first Viper 3 month's ago, from a member on here...a '98 coupe with only 6K miles, 10# ROE Supercharger, about 630RWHP, I-Forged wheels and a ton of odds & ends. I started driving this car too much for as nice as it is so I began looking for a Gen 3 to turn into a dd. Enlisting the help of Matt @ Speedwerkz (which we bought the '98 from), the search for my Gen 3 had begun. Next thing I knew we were talking to Kevin @ UGR and the build was on. 6 weeks later we were picking up our TT. Then, headed straight from UGR to Speedwerkz for wheels & window tint. An '08 hood and 2-piece rotors came in this week; will be installing soon. :headbang:

As soon as we got back from TN, we went on the cruise with the VA/MD group putting nearly 800 miles on the car in 2 days - the trip was absolutely trouble free. With 970RWHP, on a conservative tune, through air filters & pump gas, we got nearly 20mpg on interstate driving...it's a good start for this monster.

I could not be more happy with the car & the final product. The drive-ability on this car is as good as it was stock. We have also put a quaife rearend and a full Penske race suspension on it; the car handles, rides and hooks unbelievably on the street.

We would like to thank Kevin & KC @ UGR and, to everyone that works there for such a great car. A special thanks to Matt for organizing and executing this build and putting up with numerous late night phone calls, just to find out info.

Will be driving this car on a lot of VCA events and hoping to take to the track in the near future.

It was a pleasure driving with you last weekend. You and your wife are very nice people and it was great to have some 'locals' on the cruise with us. That car is a beast, and yet tame as every other car when you tell it to be. Great combination, and it was awesome to see someone out flogging an FI car!

And, no rep system here....sorry. :D

So Kevin just turned out 3 TT SRT Viper's in the past week or two? Very nice (as all UGR TT's are).

Nice car! It was nice to meet you and your wife on the ride last weekend. We will try to hook up with you soon and maybe do a cruise on the Skyline Drive.
