New Viper with 600HP unveiled

Chrysler has revealed the 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 — a more powerful version of its popular two-seat sports cars. It will arrive in Dodge showrooms in North America this summer. The SRT model gains an additional 90 horsepower from the new 8.4-liter powerplant, for a total of 600 hp and 560 lb.-ft. of torque.

Zero to 60 mph takes under four seconds, and 0-100-0 mph is completed in just over 12 seconds. The Viper SRT10's 8.4-liter engine breathes through new cylinder heads equipped with CNC-machhined combustion chambers, larger valves and Variable Valve Timing (VVT). VVT electronically adjusts when the exhaust valves are open and closed according to engine speed and load.

The Viper SRT10's V10 channels its power through a new, smaller-diameter, twin-disc clutch. The transmission is the latest evolution of the Tremec T56 six-speed manual, known as the TR6060. It features 10 percent wider gears for higher torque capacity and a new synchronizer package. Stopping power is another key attribute of the Dodge Viper SRT10 formula, with 14-inch brake rotors gripped by Brembo dual opposing calipers, good for 60-to-0 mph in less than 100 feet. Gallery after the jump.

While the car is very hot, what does it compete against? I guess I'm wondering how Dodge can keep it on the table.

It is an American product after all, I kind of feel as though American Auto Engineers expect their cars to on go fast in a straight line, thats it, and that you pay 70 to 80 grand for an engine, because interiors and suspension are inferior to European Automobiles.

If you want to see a car that looks like a clown shoe take a long look at a Infinity FX 35 or 45

I think the American Vet will give any European Automobile a run for its money.

stability control can't defy the laws of physics especially with a twitchy rear end.
