    the Gen V had many key points that were deemed important to the spirit of the car. Everyone wanted the curves back!!! An important one was the clamshell hood. The design hurdles were the hinge and hinge point, latch design and release, the hood mounted head lamps. Manufacturing the hood itself...

    No announcements on opening race date yet, we will announce this as we get closer to being ready. No announcements on other series yet - we're focusing on ALMS right now.

    We are working on some TV show options, but maybe not as good as the one above. It won an Emmy, didn't it?

    Light wt, composites have certain benefits but aluminum made the best case for us.

    The car will be at ALMS races later in the season. We only have a few cars available to show, before production starts, so there will be a lot of regional shows that we won't be able get to (sorry). We will have a full schedule in the events section on driveSRT.com and the driveSRT Facebook page.

    The doors are super plastic formed and therefore the material has high stretch, so good dent resistance.

    Bob Bob Bob, 640 still isn’t enough eh? How fast is fast enough? The Gen V is built to be as robust as possible but we can’t comment about a boosted application at this time. Probably safe to say you would need to reduce the compression ratio though…

    If you spell the tire company name correctly (Pirelli).... but seriously a 375/25R19 is quite a unqiue size. The 355/30R19 won't dissappoint.

    There is no factory backed effort at this time. We are assisting a privateer effort.

    Toddy, Thanks for the compliments! · The Gen V intake has longer runners with an improved shape and entry. It will outperform a ported Gen IV manifold. · Same lift, longer duration and acceleration. · The aluminum flywheel dissipates heat better and does not require as...

    This is it! Just kidding, but don't be looking for any commercials. When was the last time you saw a Ferrari commercial? Working with all of the magazines is a major priority for us (I think we are up to five covers already!) and we are planning on sending the car to events and races around...

    The ESC is not related to Ferrari's. We did our own thing that we think is right for the Viper. This was a major focus on the new car and we are very happy with where the ESC tuning landed. Like the video says, "It isn't a nanny. It isn't the fun police. It just saves your ass when you are...

    After a quick internet search it seems this is a torque sensing unit that uses only the side gear separating force to apply plate pressure. They advertise up to 28 clutch plates. This seems like a "but ours goes to 11" advertising slogan. A speed sensing diff, like the Visco-Lok, is much...

    The 2013 Viper SRT seat has a manual and the GTS has a power height adjust. The seat will have more than an inch of downward travel.

    Not likely. But, if you go to France in mid-June, you'll have a good chance of seeing it. Static display only though ;)

    We evaluated all our options and the Pirellis offered us everything we were looking for in the new tire. PR will not allow us to talk about driving impressions, yet, but you will not be disappointed with the Pirellis!

    Too early to say (because we occasionally change our minds).
