Have you changed out your exhaust? new air intake? ...added some stickers? Find out how much HP you really added!
3 Dyno pulls with analysis and charts etc. - $75


When - June 4. 9am - 5pm. Rain or Shine
Where - Powerplant Motorsports, New Milford CT
AND 1st and 10 Sports Bar, New Milford, CT

We will do lunch at 1st and 10 roughly 12:30 - 1:30. It's a cool sports bar owned by a former Viper Owner who always gives us prime parking!



We will organize a few cruise meetup spots for NY and for CT, so start the RSVPs!

Ed I am in but only if the weather corporates. I have been trying to get the beast on a Dyno again.

Excellent! I would love to hear that thing really wail on the rollers!

Fingers crossed for the weather... I think we've survived the worst of it with May nearly out (knock wood)

UPDATE -
The club will be kicking in $25 towards dyno time for members (so it's $50 then).


Of course I'll bring an iPad with the signup form if you want to join/renew on the spot :-)

Address Update Everyone - 571 Danbury Rd. New Milford CT, 06776

Google maps shows about an hour from the Throgsneck Bridge. A Lot of that is on rt 684 which is a nice wide open road :-)

I'm going to try to be there for the dyno. Are people planning on hitting the rollers and then food, or food first?

Great question - we will have some of each. The restaurant is right up the road from the dyno so easy to stop over and come back. Anyone who can get there for the morning should do so (and please post up that you will.) Powerplant is keeping the doors open all day for Viper Dyno pulls so we want to spread it out, not flood the guy all at once. The majority of people 'hanging out' will be morning - early afternoon I would guess.

I definitely want a morning slot. The earlier the better. What time are we starting?

Awesome - we can start right around 9. I will let Powerplant know you're up first.

Sounds like 5 or 6 but still waiting on some rsvps

Hey guys! I was planning on making this but have some things going on at home that need my attention. Gjon, who is running the day is a GREAT guy who REALLY knows his stuff on Viper tunes! As soon as my life gets back to normal my car is there 1000%. He was going to do a re-tune for me early spring but life didn't allow it. Fantastic shop, great people, sad I can't go! Have a great time everyone!

Definitely a great day! Beautiful place at Power Plant! I felt confident letting them put my car on the straps. As a matter of fact, Gjon was the first person to physically drive my car since its been in my possession.

Now gotta clear up this tune! Food was great at 1st and 10; wasn't expecting that at a sports bar.

I like the looks of it and the function. The fit left a little to be desired, if you were looking down on it it is tilted just a little clockwise. I couldn't figure out anyway to adjust it from rubbing on the driver's door, so I am just going to let it go. Not the roughest looking part of the car. Other than that paint matches perfect, it keeps the rain out, and you can put it on by yourself if you want to.

And a big thanks for Chuck for handling my fuse issue. Oh and Dan @ Viper Specialty for getting out of bed to figure it out. Haha
