2013 SRT Viper on a Hot Wheels Poster

CRAP CRAP CRAP .....and I dont mean the car. I mean that it looks fantastic and now Im going to have to buy one.

It has the gorgeous curves of the original design and brings back the original shape of the side vent - which was a huge problem for me on the SRT-10.

CRAP !

 

Woohoo! Looks great which means Gen III-IV Vipers will now become cheaper and I can get one

 

I don't like the fascia or the headlights. The headlights remind me of a California.

And the hood vents! That's not Viper, it's Ford GT. Oh well, there will always be the GTS.

 

Interior upgrade tells me this car will base price above $100k. My guess is $110k

 

Liking what appear to be some good curves so far.

 

so far so good

 

Going to the post-show Viper party Wednesday. Looking forward to it.

 

will you get drunk and tell them about your racing exploits at VIR?

if so, have somebody youtube it for me

 

More like they'll remind me about my Viper racing exploits...

 

When I see the pricing on the new 991 this seems very cheap.

I might have to buy my first Viper.

 

that good? or that bad?

 

Both, in fact. Great story, but I don't think many people want to read about it here. It's out there if you want to Google for the long story.

I had fun in practice with Mr. SRT CEO. I went off after I was confident I'd learned some of his tricks, then he immediately went off. That was amusing.

Basically, I got a handle on the car during race 1, going from 13th to 8th:

The next day, I had great pace in qualifying and cut a freaking tire on my first hot lap. Qualified 13th again, finishing 8th again. Coulda, woulda, shoulda probably qualified in 6th or 7th, but that's racing. Made a great pass in the grass at the start, though:

And there you have it.

 

cool!

I had no idea Viper Cup had a TV package, did Versus (now NBCSports?) play that in America or just oop north?

 

America (F*** YEAH) only. Wasn't televised in Canadia at all.

 

It played here, I happened to catch his race.

Looking forward to the reveal.
