V-10 Viper race cars
The Viper was the first of the 'new age' front-engined rear wheel drive GT cars. It sparked renewed interest in top flight GT racing.
But... Dodge didn't homologate the Viper Competition Coupe for the 24 Hours of Le Mans or the American Le Mans Series. http://americanlemans.com/home/index.aspx Dodge Viper Competition Coupe The Competition Coupe does race in the Speed World Challenge where Tommy Archer won the Drivers' Championship last year in a Viper Competition Coupe. Dodge has revised the Competion Coupe for 2005. http://www.world-challenge.com/news/05press35.html http://www.3rracing.com/

Dodge should sell the new SRT10 Coupe and support teams in racing.
Vipers were a dominant force several years ago... Olivier Beretta was one of the drivers of the winning Viper GTS-R (GTS class) in the 2000 12 Hours of Sebring.   David Donohue and Tommy Archer were two of the drivers of the second place Viper GTS-R.  Third place Viper GTS-R  1996 24 Hours of Le Mans     This shot shows the sun kissing the fenders.  Olivier Beretta drove the car shown below
