We talked about the crowdfunded, independent team of Viper enthusiasts that headed to the Nurburgring in hopes of breaking records. And now they’ve posted their best-ever ACR lap time, hitting a 7:01 lap around the famous circuit. FoxPro films posted the in-car video showing just how hard driver Lance Arnold had to work to get that time.
The adventure started last year when the team brought two brand-new 2017 Viper ACR Extremes to Germany along with a crew of mechanics, engineers, and a bunch of professional drivers without any input or support from Dodge. They’ve had previous times of 7:03.45 and a slightly better 7:03.23. And despite the drivers feeling that the Viper is capable of lap time under 7 minutes, with cars on their last leg and no more money, this 7:01.3 will stand as the fastest Viper ‘Ring time. It’s the fastest Viper time, the fastest manual transmission time, the fastest rear-drive time, not to mention the fastest American car time ever recorded at the ‘Ring. Nicely done, guys.
