The only exception to not owning an lsx based vehicle is upgrading to something even cooler. Haha congrats!

Nobody could argue with that Viper purchase so out of that group of cars before the Viper which ones had the best ride speed and HP wise?

TB SS had the best ride.
Z06 was the fastest.
Camaro was the loudest (open cutout, only muffler was the turbo).

Love it! Best color on those cars, and probably the only car I can think of that looks 100% better with stripes. How does insurance on it compare to the Corvette/Camaro? I'd like to get one, but $40k seems to be where they are staying at which is a little too much for me. Now it's time for some boost! The 96-99 handle like what, 900-1000whp on stock internals? That's like it's begging you to slap a couple turbos on it. :D

The only downside to the Viper is the exhaust note.

Rock chips

Seems like on odd spot for that though, I would put tape behind the wheels if I was worried about rock chips. Or in front and behind, but not just in front, unless it was in the process of being taped/de-taped.

That sounds about right how's the speed difference with the Viper and the z06 Corvette?

I'd venture to guess the tape you're looking at is to help prevent cone-rash (looks like an autocross event).

I normally would have agreed with you, but it's grown on me. Maybe because I'm in the car and not hearing it from outside...but stock it's not terrible.

Both rocks and cones. Those brake ducts are actually pretty much the widest part of the car and snag rocks like you wouldn't believe. The front wheel will kick em out pretty good and it will snag that area of the fender.

Z06 is by far faster. I raced a Gen 2 Viper in the Z06 and had em by 2 cars by about 100.

Congrats on getting the viper! On a side note is 96 & 97 the years they had the problems with the front part of the frame separating under hard load/ track use? I thought they had to recall these for rivets/ welding to fix the problem.

As long as you left the LSx playing field for something cooler...

Nice whip. Blue and White GTS is pure win. Real head turner.
