I picked up my '08 ACR on Wed, Jan 7 in Irvine, but I was not in that area on Monday.  Hmmm, is there another one locally?  Since this red/black color is not being made in '09 and the production numbers I saw showed only 74 being made in '08, I thought it would be unusual to see another one in the area.  Did you see it on a Monday, or perhaps it was me driving it home on Jan 7.

Post by: viperCFP on January 16, 2009, 05:30:01 PM
Congrats on the car, and that is quite a low production run.  It was definitely Monday, after I was leaving Washington Mutual.  I was still in Taipei on January 7th.  Maybe someone in your fam found the keys?   >w

To ACR or not to ACR, that is the question.

This is a long ride for a stiffly sprung track car though it would be fun on the mountain roads....

What do you guys think????

OGO,

Tell Race Yellow Ricardo that I spent the evening cleaning the wheels!  Since the SSG snake has not been exposed to much H20 and the non water washing of the car continues to work well, I finally decided to put some H20 on the wheels!  He would be proud!

The only way to completely clean the wheel is I guess to remove it and do the inside?

EJ,

You can spray wheel cleaner in there and use a slender brush, then hose it out.  Does a pretty good job.

I still remove the wheels pretty regularly to clean them.  If you wax them while they are off the car, clean up becomes much easier.

Found some excellent soft malleable wheel brushes at Pep Boys, soft, no wire, microfiber coated. Now the wheels on the SSG are dinner plates.  You can shave using the inside as a mirror.  Good advice!  Another question?  Anyone with an 08-09 viper with satellite radio?  Made some "Wolfman Jack" mp3 audio discs for the Palomar Mtn Run.  They were excellent, was curious if anyone has the XM radio option and how does it work with engine noise, etc.  My Wolfman Jack mp3 files are 2 hours long, ripped from the Satellite TV created DVDs.  So they tend to cover most trips.

May have to offer some of the Wolfman listening on the next cruise to anyone is interested in some great audio cruising music? You would have to prove you are old enough to remember the "Wolfman".

"You got the Wolfman, Jack"?

Right, OriginalRoot?

EJ,

We have the OE "Sirius" satellite radio in our 06 and it's perfectly clear.

Didn't get that option in the 09 ACR as I don't plan on driving it on any long trips - too stiffly suspended.

I will pursue the Sirius Radio at my oil change.  Your ACR should play MP3 files if it is the similar radio that is in my 08.  I will make you some Wolfman Jack cds for the run to Button Willow.  one CD should last the whole trip up if in the mp3 format.

Not the way I do it.  Perfect 2 hour audio shows in mp3 format.  Run about 80-100 megs, can get up to 10-12 hours of the Wolfman on one CD with your player has mp3 options.  "You got the Wolfman, Jack?"  Great for crusing.
