Kurt,
I have no inside info on this... but consider that if Dodge did something special to distribute these cars, they would almost certainly come under fire for not doing so fairly. There are MY predictions, and just guesses, in order of the chance they will happen.
1) Cars will be distributed according to color and how many cars are going to one place. I doubt Dodge is going to entirely redo their distribution method - so buying from a larger dealer is probably better than a small one, as it always was. They are going to make these cars, one color at a time, and I expect red will be first.
2) They might give cars to people who will attend VOI first. They have a vested interest in getting a bunch of SRT's in one place, which would bring a lot of exposure and generate interest from other owners and VOI attendees. Also, press coverage of a bunch of SRT's in one place would be big.
3) Perhaps VCA member will get a better production slot than non-members? Just a guess. Dodge would have to seperate deliveries in mass groups, not individual people. I don't think they could do it in order of who owned their Viper the longest - too hard to maintain. But to give VCA members preference MIGHT be doable.
Again, all just speculation!
