Here are some pics for those afraid to drive their viper in the rain
Try Snow! Here are some camera phone shots from last year when I drove 32 hours straight from Norcal to Edmonton in my SRT10 convert with bald runcraps ( original tires , 28K kilometers on them ) on the back. The last 10 - 12 hours of the trip were through this crap and worse, at one point the highway I was on was shut down for blizzard warnings near Hope BC. So if you ever get stuck in the snow in your viper , just remember, Vipers can drive in any weather, you just may have to counter steer a little bit every now and then!

Re: Here are some pics for those afraid to drive their viper in the rain
Those are some scary pics going downhill and turning with all that power and no nannies.
Racing is one thing, but being on gaurd for hour after hour on the highway seems arduous. |

Re: Here are some pics for those afraid to drive their viper in the rain
Rain is fine with me but the tires are a bit slick for snow... Be careful out there.

Re: Here are some pics for those afraid to drive their viper in the rain
Obviously photoshopped. Everybody knows cars without TC can't be driven in the snow...or rain...or dry road...or on a track...

Re: Here are some pics for those afraid to drive their viper in the rain
I can think of at least of a dozen anti-rain driving members here who probably had a coronary seeing those pics!

Re: Here are some pics for those afraid to drive their viper in the rain
That looks like fun...
When I lived up in Jersey... I used to take every car in the snow.... It shows your skills very quick..... I remember one time I got stuck in a 8 inch snow storm with my honda s2000 and I had to go to court for a speeding ticket... Since where the court was didn't have as much snow I had to make it there to fight the ticket...... Talking about a pain driving in that... especially with that car.... Its really funny because I had 2 or 3 explorers pass me and get stuck in snow banks.... I just hovered on the snow pretty much steering the car like a bad 70's movie..... Joe |

Re: Here are some pics for those afraid to drive their viper in the rain
When I used to live in Canada and had only one car....a '94 Thunderbird Supercoupe (lots of torque) it was a tough thing to drive that car in snow and in snow and ice storms....I always turned the traction control off, went nice and easy and learned to feel the slightest bit of oversteer before it became "uncatchable".....but I would never try it in my Viper!!!
Way to go GTS-R 001!! Regards, Aaron
