If you’re looking for an American-built track weapon, it doesn’t get much better than the now-extinct Dodge Viper in ACR specification. This car was presented initially at SEMA in 2014 as a concept, before being unveiled in 2015 for the 2016 model year, priced from just over $120,000.

Not even four weeks prior to the ADAC Total 24h Race at the Nürburgring, the Mercedes-AMG Customer Racing Teams have laid a solid foundation in the final rehearsal. Maximilian Götz (GER), Daniel Juncadella (ESP) and Fabian Schiller (GER) showed a very committed effort in the Mercedes-AMG Team GetSpeed car with starting number 7 and finished the ADAC TOTAL Qualification Race 24h Race in fourth place. The team s sister car with starting number 8 also made it into the top ten by finishing ninth. The two Mercedes-AMG Team HRT cars rounded out the result of the six-hour race with a total of four Mercedes-AMG GT3s in the top 12.

Most of you probably remember this, while Dodge was sadly slowing down Viper production to a sorrowful and screeching halt, a group of enthusiasts and two Dodge Viper dealers were raising money to beat the Nurburgring lap record for production cars.
Seeing that FCA was simply letting an American automotive icon to die without a struggle, a good bunch of Viper aficionados raised over $200,000 through GoFundMe contributions to make the dream of many happen.
In the end, it would have taken a bit more stars to align so that the all-time production car lap record at the time was to be beaten, but one of two Vipers GTS ACR-E sent to the Nurburgring did manage to lap the Green Hell faster than any other American car before or after it.
