V10 - I have no Viper... hence the "add spare change to my viper fund" in my sig. :-) Unfortunately, college and rent takes up most of my nonexistant cashflow for now.

Hang in there with school and stay focused. The Viper will be in your garage before you know it. You just have to work your butt off and earn it. The best thing about owning this car is the fact that I don't owe anyone any money. It got paid off shortly after buying it. Take care and happy new years. Brad

If you don't like the new style, save your money for the current generation...
Here's mine. Happy New Years! Brad

Yo viper 10,
I may be an idiot, but how the hell do you get in the car... they are no door handles... Do you hit a button and it opens up enough to grab the side to open it or what? Sorry for the dumb question. Ryan |

Not a dumb question at all. There are very small door handles on the black area on the trailing edge of the windows. They had to use eletrically controlled door locks because the doors were too small to fit mechanical ones in it. No magic, just very inconspicuous. Brad

Viper 10 - What kinda exhaust is that? Doesn't look stock.
Also, got any track times? I'm guessin' mid-low 12's at 120+....

My Snake is almost bone stock. All I have is K&N's and upgraded front brake calipers, rotors and SS lines. Personally I am not a drag racer, so I cannot provide any tmes for you. Stock Vipers on street tires regularly turn 12.0 (but good drivers that I personally know have turned 11.68's). I am a road racer and I regularly attend track events at road racing venues. It is my opinion that it takes a bit more skill to get a car as powerful and torquey as a Viper around a road course. On the tracks that I venture onto, we are able to hit top speeds in the 160's down the front straight-aways. Wide turns can be taken in excess of 120 mph. Different strokes for different folks. If you buy a Viper to drag race, it is my opinion that you are really wasting the Viper's original design charter. The rush sure lasts a lot longer than 12 seconds on a road course. Brad

I agree with ViperV10, the big engine and sexy design are just ment for circuit racing. Plus the large engine makes it even more fun.
