I will go to valaya racing as I have had 3 people tell me to go there.

Thanks Cary about the suspension but I am not going to go all out on this car like the TT. I want a smoother ride and will simply lower the car.

Robert, no 20's. As for wheels that will come later if I do change. Gotta take care of the suspension, exhaust, headers... first.

Now I can join you guys on car meets and keep up ;-)

No worries.. I've only been there a couple of times when friends were picking up their cars but he had some crazy ones in there. Ted (the owner) worked on Tu's, Steve's and I belive Ting's ACR's as well as a couple of other folks. Might want to think about the Roe blower hehe...

Fred,

You are so funny, you change cars more often than I change my underwear!

Take that beast to Heffner for some 1200 hp fun!

By the way viperalley.com is a good viper forum.

Beautiful car! Question: what does ACR signify? How is it different from a normal GTS?

I believe it is a Dodge performance package that recalibrates the suspension for hard core enthusiasts tailored for events like autocross and road racing. There may have been a slight hp increase as well.
