Viper ACR...

A bit off topic, but I picked up a new ACR to replace my 1996 GTS...... It's scary looking and scary fast.....

great looking cars! I really like them, but if you plan to attend some drag racing with these be careful! Saw one of these ACR's go sideways at the track and slam into another car. Got squirly after the 1/8th mile. So ride with caution!
Enjoy the new beast!

Yea, I'm still learning the car, it's a handful to drive fast.... I'm hoping after a few heat cycles of these Pilot Sport Cup tires they will stick better.... I have to shift very nicely between gears or it lights up the tires....

he lost the car at the 1/8 mile, wow, must have been around 100MPH, maybe shifting into 3rd...... a lot of damage?

I'm hitting the track wednesday, going to take it easy.......

Fikse, Good luck and be careful. The wing is very expensive to repair or replace. Get a set of PS2's for the street, the stock rubber will last maybe 1-2,00 miles and are horrible in the rain. Otherwise tear up the competition. No one will be able to touch you on an autocross or track.

PS When the upgraded Mopar controller is available, get it.
