It would be interesting to know what modifications were done to the car for this series vs the bone stock applications we've seen so far at Viper Days. It's pretty obvious that the car has been lowered and may be using a wider track width due to the evidence of the front fender changes.

Interesting to see the tow hook on the left side of the hood while facing it. It's more evident in the wallpaper link.

I was told by John Fernandez that these body panels were put over a previous chassis.

 

[pitviper]

that would make sense. i noticed that the wheel arches seemed to extend out farther on that car than the factory CC. i was wondering why that was. now speaking of this subject, it's too bad teams couldn't put the new body panels over the current GTS-R in the FIA GT, ALMS, and at LeMans. the aero advantages alone would be well worth it.

Really? That *****.
Kinda figures. That series is whacked, anyway. 2.0L inline-4 Turbo Supras vs. McLaren F1's. And the McLarens lose.


Awesome wallpaper, pitviper. Thanks.

no problem man...it would be very funny if the Viper could start beating them up over there. the Viper GTS-R's are leading the championships currently in the Spanish GT, Italian GT, French GT, and Euro GT...ain't that aomething?

That car actually won its class in the last race a little while ago.

First win for that Viper team in 7 years, but a well deserved win.

Check out this one at Symbolic Motors. Appears to be a genuine Competition Coupe (#C40), replicating the racing colors of the one in Japan:

Has a pretty standard airbox setup and normal disks, compared to the slotted ones of the Japanese car:
