Viper Nurberg Ring hot lap. WOW

Would love to see someone do it with a first gen viper. Hahahaha that man would have a set of marbles the size of Texas to run one that hard

I don't know. But this wasn't something done by dodge. This was done by dodge enthusiasts who footed the bill and paid the driver along with track fees and everything. Something to tune of 2 million bucks they raised and provided the car
