Besides the other tips, you have this possibility:

If you use sudo -s to become root, your environment shouldn't change
and you should still be able to use your ~user/.vimrc (since $HOME does
still refer to your original home)

sudo -i on the other hand does re-initialize the environment and $HOME
will be set to the home of the new user.
