Re: Viper dead?
The Ford GT40s rocked -- a true American "low-go-fast" ...

Re: Viper dead?
Back in the late 1990's they had a project for a mid-engined version of the Viper as the next evolution of the breed but the project was quashed as not being "in the spirit" of the giant, front-engined mystique of the Viper. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
The design photos were awesome and looked very much like a Dodge version of the GT40 that was noticeably Viperized. It would have been waaaaay cool. We still have our "workbench" tucked safely in the garage waiting for it to be worth something, someday...
