Brew - yep, had to do it. I really didn't want to sell the red/white car but the new owner really wanted it. Both of my 4-speeds had pluses and minuses and it seemed the original car was easier to sell. Guess I won't be driving an SD much anymore since the red/white was my driver but I will be driving the new Viper - a lot! The build date is April 7 and I will be walking it down the line and driving it out of the plant to home. I will get the very first “Viper Very Orange” car. I will keep every paper that comes with it; I already have the build sheet! It's really a unique opportunity for me since I have worked on them for so long, might as well have one. Mid 11 quarter miles around 125 - 130 mph, 25 to 30 mpg on the highway and it handles and stops like a true race car. What the heck, I didn't need two old T/A's anyway (but I already miss the car and it hasn’t even left yet)!
