Sometimes the only way that most people will get the chance to get behind the wheel of some of the world’s fastest supercars is thanks to video games.  Forza Horizon 3 will be helping to provide Dodge Viper fans with the addition of the Dodge Viper ACR to the long line-up of vehicles in the game.

 

It’s part of a new DLC pack being added to the game called the Alpinestars Car Pack.  The Dodge Viper ACR will be joining in along with other vehicles such as the 2017 BMW M4 GTS, 2017 Acura NSX, and the 1978 Talbot Lotus Sunbeam.

 

The Dodge Viper ACR is considered one of the world’s fastest track cars.  It’s perfect for a game to give drivers the chance to experience the ACR at its full glory, even if it’s steering with a controller in hand.

Oh to be the head of a car company so that I could spend my weekends “test driving” the hottest and fastest cars.  That’d be a nice way to live.

That’s just what Ralph Gilles, Fiat-Chrysler’s Head Designer, gets to do.  Auto Evolution hosted a look at how he spent his Labor Day weekend.  He took off from the office and headed to the Pittsburgh International Race Complex to take the Dodge Viper ACR for a few trips around the track.

The videos of the event are a blast.  It’s entertaining to see someone who clearly loves the place he works for and the products they make enjoy them in a way so few get to.  He races his ACR against another one.  Check out the videos and try not to want a career change afterwards.

While the Dodge Viper SRT may be getting shelved, that hasn’t stopped anyone from trying to coax the most potential from an already powerful supercar.  The 2016 Dodge Viper ACR is one of the fastest track cars there is.  That isn’t good enough for German tuning company Geiger Cars.  They’ve gotten under the hood and have super-powered the ACR to get it to push even more horsepower.

Geiger has a reputation for their tuning of performance vehicles.  Their upgrades to the ACR include ECU tuned cylinder heads, sports catalytic converters, and a stainless steel sports exhaust system.  It boosts the performance of the ACT’s 8.4-liter V10 engine and gives it 765 horsepower!

The car itself has also been upgraded to help drivers maintain control of all this power.  The “Extreme Aero Package” is a carbon fiber body kit.  All-in-all for Dodge Viper owners or perspective owners, it appears that Geiger has figured out how to really unleash the potential of the supercar.
