I park with the car in reverse and handbrake on. I notice sometimes that upon releasing handbrake and starting to reverse, the car faulters as if the handbrake was still applied. I go into neutral, back to reverse a couple of times and the feeling of resistance goes away.

Anybody else experienced this? Will consult my local viper tech, but they don't deal with that many vipers.

Some times if your wheels are wet when you park, the e-brake can get sticky.

Heat cOuld be a factor as well. Your e brake pads could be getting baked onto the rotors and that resistance you feel could be the pads breaking loose.
