MotoIQ.com's - Project Viper GTS

[stuntman]

Hey guys,

Check out my articles on MotoIQ.com > Projects > Dodge > Viper

I'm trying to condense all of the information that's scattered in books and online for the Gen 2 Viper in an easy to read but technical and detailed format.


Viper GTS - Part 1 History & Intro.

While many of you already know the history of the Viper, you may find a few new tidbits of information in this article that I wrote:


"The Dodge Viper has been competitive on the world stage by doing it the American way: with big wheels, big brakes, big tires, a big engine, and not a lot of refinement. While it has always been a highly capable car on the track, used car prices have finally dropped to the point of being affordable by the masses and it has become a realistic option as a track day car. This project hopes to clarify some of the stereotypes that surround the Viper and bring the truth to light of a very cool platform."



Enjoy!

Project Viper GTS: Part 2 - General Maintenance


"Before thoroughly enjoying the purchase of a used performance car, it’s important for the enthusiast to go through some routine maintenance items. We prepare our 1997 Viper to be driven by changing the oil, coolant, spark plugs, wires, and go through a few miscellaneous items. We then install an aftermarket temperature gauge to monitor how hot the V10 operates and to test the accuracy of the factory gauge."





Enjoy!
