Excuses, excuses I know, but I worked on my car until 3am Thursday and couldn't on the road early enough Friday to make the show. D*mn.

Looking forward to hearing more.

I usually don't have a camera on hand but brought one this time knowing the coupe would be there so here you go.
Dan Knotts is a really nice guy... he parked the car next to mine (red #15).
He drove it in the Green group with his son.

He said it was 30% stiffer than the vert and only weighed 15 lbs more.

He also said Dodge had the engine power "certified" like GM did with the vette and, get this, it just happens to be 510 HP!!! (535 torque).
So the Viper still has bragging rights!

Between you, me, and everyone else reading this, when he first pulled up beside me, I only caught the car with my peripheral vision and I thought another vette was gonna take up residence beside me.... sorry

Great news on the HP incease, albiet not a very significant one. The rear is growing on me a little, but mixed with the srt front still looks wrong. Maybe if it was dropped a bit.

if anybody has more pics of the black srt-10 coupe, please post them. thanks

Glad to see you guys arent reading to closesly. The srt-10 coupe didnt get any real power upgrade, it was just recertified under the new standard. So its no stronger then the 03-05 srt-10's.
