> So Dodge got the bright idea to run the new Viper ACR around the ring. Mind you the viper comes from the factory with a adjustable suspenion, pilot cup race tires, and wings that actually make downforce. So if it really qualifies as a street car is debateable. But the results are impressive.

I give Dodge mad credit for turning the Viper into such a legit track car. Having driven several I can tell you most of them are a shit show. But the new ACR is amazing.

Every time I see another article about the ACR it just makes me wish GM could do something like that w/ the Z. Leave the motor alone, take 100-200lbs out, give it REAL downforce, put it on coilovers, put some good pads in it, and but some Cup Sports on it and I’d be ALL over it.
