Having recently proven itself in the American
Le Mans Series with an undefeated season,
Dodge Viper GTSR proudly claims the title of
thoroughbred racer. The Viper GTSR Concept
Vehicle explores the idea of bringing that
race-ready handling and performance to the
street.
The Viper GTSR street racer is lower and
lighter than ever, and every detail has been
reworked for maximum functionality. Viper
GTSR's airflow is fully adjustable by the driver
with an electronically controlled front splitter, a
large rear air diffuser and a rear hoop spoiler
with an electronically trimmable wing.
To further blur the boundaries between racer and road
car, Dodge
engineers managed to tweak a little more power out of
Viper's outrageous
8.0-liter V10. With dry-sump technology, it now produces
500 horsepower
and 500 pound-feet of torque - up from 450 and 490,
respectively.
That's enough extra get-up-and-go-power to take the
Dodge Viper GTSR
Concept Vehicle from 0-60 in 3.75 seconds (est.), with a
top speed
coming in at over 200 miles per hour!
