these laps strangely remind me of the 2005 viper https://fastestlaps.com/models/dodge-viper-srt-10
decent on some tracks, crap on others, also the only generation where the viper was slower than a comparable corvette

unfortunately Pobst's laptime was the only laptime set so far by the viper, that was decent.

very bad laptime
Give this car to Randy Pobst, and he will do much faster lap-tmie.

It need so much skill, expirience, and balls. To get 100% from this car.

This laptime is obivious fail. Viper should compete with ZR1

I STill find it strange that they would send such ragged to shite cars for there tests, my only guess is they didn't have a "Complete" one to give them, they sent n Excellent example of the T/A over to them, the shouldn't have an excuse, with the exception of the one I was thinking, that doesn't only belittle the SRT company, but enforces the American stereotypes.

And if it were "The Real" example of the Viper, I reckon a 1:08.6s Hockenheim time.

@Viking seeing what shitty "Press" car Motortrend recived for their best handling car 2013 competition it is amazing that they even seel this kitcar quality "supercar" ... they did not even put same tire on front on back axle straight from factory, several parts fall of the Viper during testsand many mechnical problems poped up...
Motortrend realy said it was a shame that they recived such a pice of shit for the test..

Hopefully Chrysler's build quality is not getting worse. It is too bad the test car had problems, maybe a more perfect example will be tested later.

test is correct and it was the Viper with SRT track pack(Pirelli P Zerro Corsa!!)!!
The Viper they tested had some electronic gremlins. The Launch Control did not work.... sportauto called it the "burn out control" which did not allow good starts but nice black rubber lines. the car acceleration was best with Launch control off and way off factory claim.
Take into account this car is no "press" car it is a ordinary production model sportauto received from Geiger cars a German US car importer.

These new SRT Vipers have been hit or miss from what I've seen. Just look at all the Vipers MotorTrend have tested so far. Some are stellar and then some aren't...
I suspect the Viper should be capable of a low 1:09 or high 1:08

@phavyarden I agree, but it wasn't the SRT Viper T/A model just the regular Viper. Still disappointing though.
@Karthick01 yeah I believe it's correct since I got it directly off the sportauto.de website. I am off work today so I decided to brush up on my German, and read some Sport Auto tests. :)
