Okay thought I would continue the picture parade. Here are a few more shots from the Colorado High Altitude Testing of the new 2013 SRT Viper GTS from a month or so ago. The black GEN IV Vert' car is a very interesting mule. It weighed heavily on the development for the new GEN V. Yes that is a GEN V suspension on the GEN IV. You can see the X-Brace, etc. Cool shots huh! Thank goodness SRT did not adopt that exhaust system and trumpets:)

That's cool, technically that GenIV is a true mule, in which a previous gen vehicle style / appearing / chassis carries new or future product stuff and test equipment, hence the analogy / descriptive word "mule". The other GenVs shown are commonly known as pre-production cars for validation / testing purposes, but some still call them mules....

OP. Great pictures.

I recently recall reading/hearing whereby Ralph mentioned the existence of a Gen IV ACR-X with the GenV powertrain and rear suspension. This could have been a simple mule, or better yet, the mule for a future ACR.
