Lars Mars Cars they are contemplating on bringing it back based off the alpha Romeo Giulia, but wether or not they go through with that plan has yet to be heard
Lars Mars Cars reason is handling on them I should know I had a viper rt/10 till I wrecked it I took a turn to fast hit guard rail and totaled the fiberglass body on it rip front right wheel off broke my right leg and angle ducking cops thought I was racing got a $3,000,00 fine and few weeks of jail time also lose $375,00
Josh Compton forgot 1 it was created for racing but public wanted one so the first viper released was the RT/10 97' model than the srt/10 than the gtsr and than the dodge concept in 2002 by dodge company on a auction that went for $8.000.000.00
This car is and still will be my first car that I bought. I still have mine, a 2006 Viper with a wide body kit and a twin turbo for the engine. 5 years and counting already.
Thanks for uploading this vid. The GTS-R was the car that made me start to love racing back when I was about 4 years old. It has a special place in my heart
AirCooledGaming And before that GT Racing 2002...the mod for F1 2002 :) much nostalgia... though I don't remember if Viper was in the mod hmmm been some time.
Watched this thing win most every race in FIA European GT Champs on Eurosport as a kid in late '90s, goodness I miss eating dinner after school while sitting on the carpet and watching these headlights come over yet another hill and another corner, taking victory after victory !
Hey Bozzy. Your timing is impeccable.👌 Yesterday on my way home from work, I saw a Dodge Viper GTS (blue w/ white stripes). I never was a huge Viper guy, but I must say after several years have passed, these cars have aged very well and still look damn good.😍 I think I appreciate them more now than when they came out. Thanks for the killer track footage, dude! You guys are everywhere.👍👏👏👏
Hi Mick! Are you kidding?! hahah It looks like I've got a sixth sense XD Probabily because here in Italy Vipers are quite rare but I'm a huge Vipers lover's especially that road-legal GTS you saw last day. And I'd say a blue with white stripes plus yellow headlights GTS-R would be my favorite configuration of this beast ;D Thanks as always for your precious comments mate!!
19Bozzy92 True story, Bozzy. Before then, I hadn't seen one of those on the road in at least 3 years. Very cool to see one in the flesh again. Definitely an eye catcher. Cheers!
Watching Team Oreca win the 24hrs of Daytona in person was awesome. Knew when the vipers flew by at 3am downahifting into turn 1 while trying to snooze for a bit! Thanks for the memories!
I could assume everywhere it was known as Dodge Viper. But if you check every entry lists of each race a Viper GTS-R raced you can see the "Dodge" brand doesn't appear but "Chrysler" (only in North America it was fielded as Dodge Viper). That's because this race car was built and developed in Europe, where in those years Dodge wasn't selling their road-legal Vipers. In order to increase the appeal (and sales) of their new GTS through a marketing strategy Chrysler asked for help to French Oreca in the development of a racecar that was able to perform well both in the North American championships and in Europe. If you look carefully none of the GTS-R as a Dodge logo on it
No, the "Dodge" brand was non-existing in Germany until 2003/2004. They officially sold Vipers in Germany as Chrysler. The car even had the branding in the back custom changed to Chrysler and registration and everything ran under Chrysler as well. There are numerous old brochures available on ebay if you want to have a look.
Watching the pure, unadulterated dominance of those Oreca beasts was a highlight of my late teens. 98-00 3 leMans chips in a row going away. Nothing could touch them for speed and reliability. Only when they allowed Chevy to cheat with the homologation rules with that 7 liter engine while reducing the Vipers tire width did the snakes have a challenger. But they had to handicap it. Oreca livery on the G5 SRT Viper GTSR’s also brought home the championship in only its second year of racing, then the idiots at Chrysler killed the racing program. They probably could have done another 3peat at Lemans if they continued racing it. Miss these beasts. One of the best road and racing cars I’ve ever seen. Thanks for the memories Bozzy. 👍👍👍😎
8.0 liters V10 Manual Transmission looks like it was too much for Americans and Dodge to handle if the Challenger is a Demon this Viper is the Gates of the Hell unleashed.....the Chrysler Viper GTS R #53 won The LeMans in 2000 after 333 laps this is amazing!!!!!! Thanks for such an inspiring video 🏁🍾🎉👏👍!!!!!!
Great, as always! The time frame this car raced in was when I got into sports cars. That red/white livery on this car is iconic in my mind. It's great to see a video with modern HD on these cars of yesteryear.
Vipers are so freaking hot, and hold the record for the most track victories. In 2016, the ACR totally dominated and set 13 records at the best tracks in the country and is more than any car in automotive racing history period. BTW, I subbed the channel just for the Dodge 💪🏼😎
I think I could write a pretty good essay on why the dodge viper is the best muscle car of all time. I really want to have one some day!!! And I also want to have an Alfa Romeo Stelvio because it would be a good secondary car to the viper and I have always liked American and Italian cars the best.
Suuuuper! Like way back in the days. I liked the one with the smaller rear spoiler wing (GT2 from the 1998-1999), it was also more angled for attacking that wind force.
I just have to say, its not Dodge or Chrysler, it was the first 2 years but after that, this car was completely build by "Team Oreca" from France. The Engine is btw not a truck engine, it based on it but the internals are designed with the help from Lamborghini and there is no Truckstuff left in it. I love this Car
Note the spoiler is shorter wide are shown on Nr #51 |#52 |#53 (used in Europe race) numbers #91 #92 were used by IMSA 2001- '02 (only all the Viper GTSR is older shorter spoiler) but is just additional featured has a wider spoiler is were fitted on Viper's GTSR are used by Oreca, Thanks for Nm2255 and 19Bozzy92 💯🎉👍
Love these cars, but I honestly never thought they sounded good. And yes, I've been around them in person. They just sound like trucks with no cats. V10's don't come into that musical tone that they're known for in European cars until they get into that high RPM which Vipers cannot reach.
Thanks Gran Turismo for making me remember a legendary race car.
Sauber Wolf I was playing Gt 6 for PS3
Sauber Wolf I'm happy they added it too and gonna put mine in Riley Colours
Legendary?
THIS WAS MY FAVORITE IN GRAN TURISMO!!!!!!
I like that #91 Team Oreca
too bad they discontinued the Viper. Gotta love that big V10
Big is understated
Really? That's great , I thought they ended the Viper.

Back when the Vipers were badass race cars. Nice, throaty, and loud!
It's amazing how satisfying it is to watch that thing drive around the track. I could've watched another 20 minutes of this.
One of the best and most badass looking cars ever imo, especially in the red and white stripes
In my opinion, best GT car ever :) First Touch with Le Mans Series with this amazing Viper!
My dream car back in high school thanks to GT2. I now own an 05 SRT-10 Ram. Probably about as close as I'll ever come.
This car is and still will be my first car that I bought. I still have mine, a 2006 Viper with a wide body kit and a twin turbo for the engine. 5 years and counting already.

No problem at all dude!
GT3 A-Spec.
Laguna Seca
Every GT!
Gives me nostalgia to Simbin's GTR and GTR2
AirCooledGaming And before that GT Racing 2002...the mod for F1 2002 :) much nostalgia... though I don't remember if Viper was in the mod hmmm been some time.
So much nostalgia for GTR2
AirCooledGaming I still have a copy
Agreed, too bad I can only play as the Scream Murcielago and 575GTC.
most beautiful car ever!

there once was an adage "no replacement for displacement"
Oscar Thorpe Improving technology? But who the fuck cares about that when you have an engine like this...
Actually...
Displacement still better when you can make a lot of power, torque and with long longevity engine.
Definitely remember this from that damn licence test at Laguna Seca in Gran Turismo 3. What a pain the backside to get a gold!
Timeless looking car...red one if my fav
This low revving V10 sound is the best V10 sound.
I remember seeing the Team Oreca Vipers at Watkins Glen back in 99/2000. Thanks for the memories!
You're welcome! ;)
There are not enough likes in the world for your videos. Thank you so much for a consistently impressive run of vids.
Thanks a lot for the very kind comment man! Really appreciated it :)

M. B. Not always. You should check the Zakspeed Viper in the entry list of Nürburgring 24 hours. It had different names over the years
No, the "Dodge" brand was non-existing in Germany until 2003/2004. They officially sold Vipers in Germany as Chrysler. The car even had the branding in the back custom changed to Chrysler and registration and everything ran under Chrysler as well.

Chrysler is a partnered company with dodge, that's why he put it in the title
Started shopping for a GTS, the girl told me I’m going through a midlife crisis, told her get the hint. This car will age beautifully.
it already has aged beutifully, compare it to the corvette of the same era, c4 or c5, looks so much better
Bought GTR2 back in 2006 because of this car, haha!

Thanks Bozz this is some of the best footage I ever see from this car!. Top man as always!
Thanks a lot my firend! I was really hoping to record properly this car one day and finally this year it has happened :D
That burbly V8 sound in a 10 Zylinder is just great.
It even sounds like the road car :)
Well im pretty sure it was a v8, read about it.
@@aguywhodoesstuff1116nah Viper V10s jus have that throaty rumbly sound to them plus not every gts-r was a V8 it was only that 1 car
@@LeCumminz It appears you have read more than me.
This GTS Viper and the GT1 CLK-GTR were just unstoppable !!
That car is power of triple threat. Ultmate race car viper gts-R
Great, as always! The time frame this car raced in was when I got into sports cars. That red/white livery on this car is iconic in my mind. It's great to see a video with modern HD on these cars of yesteryear.
Crazy sound . . car brings back memories
This is the car that made the McLaren F1 look slow
Been waiting for this one, thanks for the upload.
No problem at all! ;)
Thanks Bozzy, brings back memories of my visits to Le Mans in '97 and '98. These cars are beasts. I love them :)
You're welcome! Thank you so much for watching
Großer Motor, fette Kiste, geniales Racecar, der Sound ist unglaublich!
I remember this car in GT4. It was one of my favs from American race cars ^^
I know a guy from Arizona that has a red gts-r with 1500 miles in perfect condition. It's absolutely beautiful.
sounds pretty impossible. that would mean id done only 1 race?
I forgot how much i loved the sound this thing made
Vipers are so freaking hot, and hold the record for the most track victories. In 2016, the ACR totally dominated and set 13 records at the best tracks in the country and is more than any car in automotive racing history period. BTW, I subbed the channel just for the Dodge

Great footage Bozzy! Wish I could've seen one in its golden days, that V10 sounds ike Satan is ascending from the exhaust XD
Thanks a lot my friend!
Dat sound :D
Just get one in the original Team Oreca livery and it'll be perfect
Definitely the best looking race cars.
4:03 lol the Bee Gees!
Best race car ever.
Wonderfull sound!👍

I don't consider the Viper a muscle car though, it is a sports coupe, designed to go around proper race circuits
It does fit a couple qualifications, namely the giant engine and rear wheel drive
Suuuuper! Like way back in the days. I liked the one with the smaller rear spoiler wing (GT2 from the 1998-1999), it was also more angled for attacking that wind force.
Three Classic Beasts, filmed by Three Classy Beasts. Thanks guys this was great! B.P.
Thank you so much for your comment mate!
Naw! As always thanks to you, and thanks to the Tri-Star. Stay safe and keep it up! B.P.
Memories of Viper Racing 🔥🔥🏁
Vipers are under appreciated I believe, love ‘em
This is my favorite car on gran turismo 3, man i miss my ps2.
Say what you want about the viper, but it has cemented its legendary status in racing by being a DOMINATING monster in its class

The Engine is btw not a truck engine, it based on it but the internals are designed with the help from Lamborghini and there is no Truckstuff left in it. I love this Car
Sound of those V10S though

Big V10 viper awesome sound it will be missed
Beautiful " Music "!
G.T.R.2 Anyone?

Muscle car and can be fast in corners..must be black magic:)
Tony Valdez Trust me, it's not a muscle car, more a sports car like the corvette.
Tony Valdez yeah except it isn’t a muscle car
I know,its Sport muscle car:) Not Sport car like BMW,AUDI,AMG...
Tony Valdez no again it is not a muscle car my friend it is more of a super car with the last one released back then it was more of a sports car.
Sport cars means they can be fast traight and in corners too no straight only:)
Sport Muscle Car!
I wish this was in Project Cars 2...
