Very true. At this point it better be HUGE news, like the ACR-X they ran was actually a stock Gen V underpinnings or something, because with all the anticipation that they've built up, anything less is gonna be "meh" news.

Maybe we all were assuming the wrong car......it was the Jeep that broke the record!

I'm not sure what everyone is expecting besides a video. I mean the VCA prez. made the announcement. It's been on the SRT FB page and numerous other websites. What more can they do besides post the video???

Some historic perspective froma would-be Hssstorian:

Several times in past 18 years, Dodge made cool videos for Viper owners as well as commerical uses. The TIME NEEDED to get just the MUSIC licensed and approved is nerve-wrenching. Any logos of incidentals products in there? Gotta get permissions now. What the delay says to me is that the end product will be Top-Notch, First-Class, and worth waiting for.

Seeing B-roll of the final product would only dilute its impact. I bet we will be blown away, and willing to forgive-forget the wait.

Music? I do not think that any of us need music to enjoy the triumph. We just need to hear the sound of the car's engine and exhaust as it makes the run - the best music of all.

WOW!!!!!! Incredible stuff. Ben and I both would like to thank the SRT Team, VCA, and Mintgen Motorsports. Having two of our cars in Germany working directly with SRT Team was not only incredible but surreal.The last 9 days has been a ball of emotions and one that I can say will be with both of us for a life time. Finally back in USA and we can say with no uncertain terms we are proud to be viper Owner's, Racers and Dealers but a huge part of the Incredible Viper Nation.

Keep your eyes open for Kuno Wittmer this weekend with his race in penultimate round of the ADAC GT Masters in Assen, Netherlands. Kuno will start the series by driving the Dodge Viper Competition Coupe GT3!!! Viper Nation is truely incredible.

As Marv and the VCA said more to come and what exciting times for Dodge and SRT // !!!!




Absolutely Incredible!!

Congrats Bernie, Ben , Tomball Dodge , SRT and ALL Involved!!

Also on a second note, we are putting together a special 7:12 Nurburgring Edition cars that will be extremely unique and special. I am equally excited about this. We will have 3 cars in each color available. Same unique Paint combo. Signatures from the entire team. Numbered badging. 7:12 N'Ring graphics. Photo book telling the story of the whole experience. etc. etc. These cars will be special. So then, you too can go to the N'Ring and set a record!!! It will be a special part of Viper Hisssssstory.

Thank you to everyone in the VCA for your kind notes and incredible support. Bernie and I are honored to be involved in this whole deal. All the people of Tomball Dodge and ViperExchange.com are just excited to have brought to record home.

Oh just found the link on YouTube, odd it didn't show up in the searches around an hour ago. I'm submitting this to as many car sites as I can to get the word around :)

Another VCA member pointed this out and please tell me I am wrong but it looks like the start/finish line timing are about 100 ft. apart....

I'm wrong, right????

I'm pretty sure the SRT guys would know where the start finish line is.

Those are the normal start & stop points used on the Ring. Look at the videos for the other cars and you'll see them all using the same format.
