3 Days before SRT Viper on FM4...

Attention everyone! 3 DAYS LEFT BEFORE SRT VIPER ON FORZA 4! I REPEAT!  3 DAYS LEFT BEFORE SRT VIPER ON FORZA 4! Let's make this Viper Week a bit more interesting. Yesterday, I drove the 1999 Dodge Viper ACR. Now, we're driving a different kind of Viper, which is the 2003 Viper SRT-10.

Time for Plan V...V10!

The Dodge Viper received its full model change in 2003 via Chrysler's Street and Racing Technology group. Replacing the GTS coupe and the RT/10 roadster, the Viper SRT-10 roadster comes with sharp angled bodywork, increased V10 engine displacement of 8.3L and other upgrades. It produces 500HP of power and 712Nm of torque.  The "Sneaky Pete" Viper logo from the 1992 Viper was been replaced with a new logo called "Fangs". A coupe version was introduced in the 2005 Detroit Auto Show as a 2006 model. It was featured on Jeremy Clarkson's 2006 DVD titled THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY. It had a race against the BMW Z4 M and in ended in a draw.

When The Stig drove the Dodge Viper SRT-10, it lapped the Top Gear Test Track in 1.28.5, faster than the MG XPower SV.

This car served as the opening salvo when the American version of Top Gear aired on History Channel in November 2010. In the opener, Tanner Foust and Rutledge Wood are in the Viper SRT10, driving through Griffin Airfield, across town, and return back to Griffin Airfield, while being hunted down by a Cobra attack helicopter. They have three lives left but the Cobra helicopter exterminated the Viper SRT-10 while 1) exiting Griffin Airfield, 2) at the cementery, and 3) crossing the finish point of the Griffin Airfield.

Production of the Viper ended in 2010 but in 2012, a new Viper emerges and it will no longer be called Dodge Viper but it's called SRT VIPER...



Well, as told. We have three days left before the all new 2013 SRT Viper comes to Forza Motorsport 4 so tomorrow, how about driving the Viper Competition Coupe? It looks identical to the Viper GTS-R Concept from most video games, you know....
