Hopefully this won't come of as "giving you a hard time" too badly... but...

1st thing I noticed (once I got past the music) is your non-stock steering wheel. It also looks like you're wearing an open faced helmet, and presumably wearing stock seat belts (you're moving around a LOT).

NOT a very safe combination in a car as capable, but heavy and prone to lose brakes and tires rapidly, as a viper. Did '93's not come with an airbag?

Except for some pinched corners, looks like some pretty good driving as best as I can tell, but the music is very distracting from the engine sounds.

Sorry you didn't like the music.

It is a stock steering wheel. Vipers came with no airbags, no ABS, no traction control, not even real windows in 93.

I am installing a 5 point over the winter so that will take care of the moving around a lot.

Oh I liked the music... I just don't like music on top of track videos

Be sure to read up on the safety threads and wiki pages before spending a bunch of money on harnesses... lots of things you can do wrong and make things worse if you're not careful and plan ahead.

The main page of the site (not the forum pages)... www.trackpedia.com

All the links are wikipedia-powered, user maintained info sites.... like this link:

Thats right Stack the 93 Vipers had nothing but motor. Other than the good advice on belts stop picking on the new kid.

Welcome aboard 93viper.
