    ooww dam man

    Constructive criticism but I guess he should have stayed off the breaks for that one.
    Dodge wasn't going too bad tho for a big fat V8 heavy long wheel based POS.

    the viper is hardly a pos..

    also the race is staged, its from high octane and they always stage their races, its just unfortunate that the viper driver was a drop kick..

    Actually the new SRT-10 got a very poor review on Fifth Gear

    The SRT-10 (formally the Viper before Dodge lost the rights to the name) was pitted against the C6 Corvette. The SRT-10 now has a 8.3L V10 and is more powerful than its predecessors. While the SRT-10 had an advantage over the C6 in straight-line speed it fell short in every other category. This was especially true in terms of handling, gear shifts and feel. Fifth gears recommendation was save your money and buy the corvette.

    the Ram SRT10 carries the same engine.... The viper engine is originally a

    a truck engine anyway....

    Yeah there is a Ram SRT-10 and a Viper SRT-10.

    SRT can be likened to HSV is Australia. Chrysler created SRT by merging the motorsports engineering groups with the Mopar performance parts operation.

    The number at the end denotes the number of cylinders is 10, 8, 4 etc and the name processing it is the model. The only problem is that in the UK (where firth gear is filmed) Viper is registered to another company so Chrysler can't use it hence there it is just called the SRT-10.
    In the US it is called the Viper SRT-10.
