First Drive: 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR

Autoblog[Autoblog] The aggressive design, powerful 8.0-liter V10 with 450 horsepower (doesn't sound like much now, but it sure seemed like a lot then), and the blue paint scheme with white racing stripes were the ideal combination for my dream sports car. I'm going to be that guy at the 2030 Barrett-Jackson purchasing a mint, low-mileage, numbers-matching 1996 or 1997 Dodge Viper GTS, and, of course, you'll be the one watching on SPEED commenting how I'm paying way too much for a classic American muscle car.

Some Canadian Driving Tips

Northerngardener's Webloghttp://northerngardener.wordpress.com/2008/08/01/some-canadian-driving-tips/ [Northerngardener's Weblog] If you or your vehicle are incapable of driving the speed limit, please get off the road for everybody’s safety.  If you want to drive the speed limit on a major highway, please do so in the right hand lane.  If you stay in the left lane because you think it is your “right”, all you are doing is creating a dangerous situation for everybody, including those drivers who are now illegally passing you on the right.    I have known someone to receive a ticket for driving too SLOWLY on a 400 series highway, which caused me no end of pleasure - as the person vowed to stay off the highways thereafter until they were more comfortable.
