    SRT retakes Laguna Seca record with 2014 SRT Viper TA!!!

    Not the radio itself, but the accompanying speakers are HEAVY.4 high-end mid-range speakers with integrated tweeters could easilyweigh at least 20 lbs, with another 10-15 lbs for the subwoofer. I wouldn't go as far to say that 30-35 lbs would make or break the Viper's performance, but to say...

    SRT retakes Laguna Seca record with 2014 SRT Viper TA!!!

    What sucks is MT reported the TA had no radio, so everybody thinks the TA is some kind of Stripped down, 10% track-focused machine

    Unique Acr hood?

    Especially since they're releasing the ACR/GTS-R for Homologation reasons.... wouldn't be the first time they used the GTS-R moniker :{)

    What a Gen 5 might look like in Snakeskin Green

    I think the next color option in store for the Gen V will be a matte silver... Ralph said sometihng a while back about new colors.. an orange and a nice matte color. We've seen the orange now, we just have to see what he's talking about next!

    Unique Acr hood?

    IIRC, ralph made a statement around the release that each model would have a unique hood to separate itself from others.

    SRT retakes Laguna Seca record with 2014 SRT Viper TA!!!

    Just a little Side-by-side comparison of the Cups (left) to the Corsas (right) It's amazing the time the TA ran on those tires!

    SRT retakes Laguna Seca record with 2014 SRT Viper TA!!!

    What they should have done was also throw a wet skid pad test in there to show how each car handled under wet conditions... I vividly recall the journalists thrashing the new viper (preprod models nonetheless) on a wet track where there were standing puddles....

    SRT retakes Laguna Seca record with 2014 SRT Viper TA!!!

    From what I've heard from Ralph through publicly-made comments, the ACR is going make the TA look tame by comparison... iirc, the TA's aero kit makes a few hundred extra pounds of downforce; the ACR is supposedly going to be making about 1500 lbs of downforce at Vmax, will likely be shod in...

    GTS Hood price?

    What are you insinuating when you say "the real stuff" costs an arm and a leg? All cfrp today uses aircraft-quality carbon fibers. That's one of the contributing factors to CFRP's seemingly astronomical cost for what it is (carbon fibers and epoxies)

    GTS Hood price?

    the reason the hoods are less expensive than the x-brace is simple: they are already producing 1-2000 hoods each year for production vehicles, so the development costs for that are already tied into the cost of the vehicle itself. They have no clue how many of the x-braces they will sell, and...

    Track testing for Motor Trend again. Kinda secret. All the new Vipers. Rock on.

    yeah and a well-equipped mustang is 60k.... I'm sure if anybody on this thread wanted a z06, they would have one, or two.

    Ferrari Power to Weight

    Vipers STILL make Ferraris look bad on the track...

    Track testing for Motor Trend again. Kinda secret. All the new Vipers. Rock on.

    Lol, you talk like Ferrari knows how to give the best bang for the buck! Most of a new Ferrari IS gimmicks! That's why they need 900 hp to get around a track faster than an ACR!

    Road & Track April...Could you live with the new Viper ? Absolutly

    It's not the interior finish that they have a problem with, its the tight fit of the cockpit.

    2015 ACR (Bad Journalism)

    These photoshoppers baffle me... why would you put Sidewinder tires on the next ACR when Gen V's already come with Sidewinder IIs? (the same wheel design on the GTS-R)

    2014 ACR to be Performance Limited by Fiat

    Oh well, let people believe what they want to believe... When the ACR does come out, I'm sure it will strike terror(and perhaps a bit of lust) in to harts everywhere!

    Delivery Date?

    Only disconcerting if you don't understand the difference between MY and CY.

    2014 ACR to be Performance Limited by Fiat

    Jesus Christ, this rumor again? The Viper already outperforms any F-car on the track.... regurgitating the regurgitation from MT.

    ACR in Motor Trend

    This 'rumor' stems entirely from a tongue-in-cheek comment given by Ralph during the reveal... The Viper is already faster than any Ferrari, with fewer horsepower to boot..

    ACR in Motor Trend

    Just imagine, more agressive bodywork, 1500 lbs of downforce, R-compound tires, a more adjustable suspension, likely less weight, hopefully brake duct hoses...

    Factory supercharged V-10 in development?

    They did sell it. The Drag Pack Challenger comes with the v-10 from the viper, 2-speed transmission, stripped interior, etc. Only for offroad use though:{)
