Dodge Viper ACR (Mk V) specs

wonder what its nurburgring time would be if it came with a dct, on a long ass track like the nurburgring, all the time lost between shifts probably adds up a lot.

The Viper ACR has quite a weird past, transforming into a GT3 car. It was a GT2 car at first, originally named Viper GT2. It was the ONLY direct competitor to the Porsche GT2 at that time. The Viper later started racing in GT1 (yes, a hypercar class category) and eventually in GT3. ACR used to simply be a lighter, sportier, more enhanced, preppier package for the Viper in the 1990s and early 2000s, and it would later be called the Mamba Package in the third-gen Viper, only to be renamed back to ACR in its fourth-gen. (TA is essentially "tamer" ACR as noted in the fifth-gen model.)

I've noticed that more recent ACRs, especially the final one, drive more like a GT3 car than a GT2 car. Their priority is never based on straight line performance. The MC20-based GT2 stradale still produces 1102 lbs of downforce at 174 mph, whereas this car makes 1764 lbs at 177.

As far as the McLaren Senna goes, it would have been a GT3 car had it not been for the extreme power or the high price tag. Today's Corvette ZR1 (the C8) is based on the GT3 Corvette, and not on any GT2 car. The Mustang GTD, same thing. Nowadays, it's MOSTLY the high-output cars that are GT3. GT3, again, is what GT2 used to be (I've noted this in one of the C8 ZR1 pages.)

What is extremely interesting about this car is the fact that this car uses passive aero, just like the C7 and C8 ZR1.

It's not just a track-focused Viper, but a Viper with an even better manual transmission. This makes it feel like it has more peak power than the other Viper models, for the 2010 and 2016-2017 models.

The Dodge Viper ACR also receives a new short-throw shifter in 2010 for enhanced driver experience and better performance. The rear wing profile and end plates are redesigned to further optimize the vehicle aerodynamics and improve rear yaw downforce. These changes result in an increase in top speed of 4 mph (to 184 mph).

Base Vipers trap 129-130 mph in the 1/4-mile, both the fourth and fifth generations. ACRs trap 126-127. This is only because of downforce (180mph top speed in the 2008-2009 models, 184mph top speed in the 2010 model, and 177mph top speed in the 2016-2017 model). Base Viper coupes top out at 202-206 mph (with some even topping out at 193 due to tire limitations).

Badass of a car

Post under review. Will be published by moderator shortly.

Nine years older and still faster than the Maserati GT2 Stradale and Lamborghini Temerario Alleggerita ;)

The Viper is a lost legend. Love the design of American front-engine sports cars (not as much muscle cars)

This is Ms Bridget's Viper. Her husband has got one too, and they, the cars that is are both CRAZY!😂

Back on the modified cars, for awhile atleast! Nothing else to benchmark the latest hypercars too, once in awhile.

Altimgamr is the angry version of hostoby, because his ass got kicked, lmao.

You're not wanted here, now go and play your hide and seek else where with your ugly Nadia.

Wait.. i just found out its a manual… with a dct this thing would be even faster - truely a giant slayer

Old but gold

100-200= 5.55 seconds Dragy VERIFIED!

Uhm, MPH!😈

Dodge Viper ACR acceleration stats! (+25% effort from 0 to 100 km/h / 62 mph)

0-60 MPH: 3.0 seconds
0-100 km/h: 3.1 seconds
0-100 MPH: 7.3 seconds
0-200 km/h: 10.5 seconds
0-150 MPH: 17.4 seconds
Lateral Acceleration: 1.24 G

Quarter (1/4) Mile: 11.4 seconds at 126 mph
Half (1/2) Mile: 17.7 seconds at 151 mph
Whole (1/1) Kilometer: 21.0 seconds at 157 mph
Whole (1/1) Mile: 29.5 seconds at 166 mph

Today is my last day estimating cars' performance.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mc-JJgfFrlYYFGuv3ohleC_rh7k8G3yp73DMb6UpCD8/edit?usp=sharing

0-200 km/h estimated in the form of (200/(100x1.609344))^1x7.3 and (200/(150*1.609344))^2x17.4

Half mile time estimated in the form of 1320x1.6 = 2112 ft / 126 mph = 16.7 + 1.0 = 17.7, because 1320 / 126 = 10.4, +1.0 = 11.4. 11.4/17.7 = more potential, and 11.3/17.8 = less potential.

Half mile trap speed estimated in the form of (17.7/17.4)^0.25x150. (I don't usually round anything up, but this is one rare case scenario where I round 150.6x up to 151.)

Kilometer time estimated in the form of 3.1+10.5/(3.1+10.5)x22 +1.0sec; mile time estimated in the form of 3.1+10.5/(3.1+10.5)x33 +1.0sec

Kilometer trap speed estimated in the form of (21.0/17.4)^0.25x150

Mile trap speed estimated in the form of (29.5/17.4)^0.20x150

@FastestLaps please change the name to simply just Dodge Viper, and merge all MY2015+ Dodge Viper pages to this version.. we're having way too much clutter in the Viper database... the SRT and GT(S) are still faster than most versions in straight line performance

and the top speed is 206 mph

Here's a good main picture to use!

Thanks in advance. It also makes the car look much more competitive with other supercars of its time on this site.

Impressive lap times for a car riding on a platform dating back to 2002 for MY2003!

This car is a masterpiece. Throttle House tested it and it was only 0.03 seconds slower than a BAC Mono... what the f***? Let that sink in for a second!

The only dodge designed for cornering lol

This car is not faster than the Corvette Z06, let alone ZR1

downforce really starts taking effect at around 100mph but it varies from car to car. take the wing off and it hits 196mph, im curious about track times and whatnot minus the wing

20.4 s 0-150 mph is a horrible time for an ACR even with a huge wing. Consider that it does 0-60 mph in 3.3 s as well. Especially with the 126 mph trap speed. Heck, a ZR1 Corvette hit 132 mph in 12.5 sec in Evo's test and hit 150 mph in 15.9 s. A Lamborghini Diablo can also hit 155 mph in around 21 secs and it traps 119-120 mph in the 1/4-mile.

Umm... ACR has no heating issues lol. It barely gets above 200 degrees oil temp during hot lapping.

It has some shoddy craftsmanship but it’s a phenomenal car.
