Le Mans will be starting this weekend, on the 22nd at 3pm in France (9am EDT). This will be the first time a factory-backed Viper has raced in the big race since it had its three straight class win in 1998-2000.

The Viper GTS-R will be participating in the GTE Professional class which will pit it up against the Chevrolet Corvette C6.6, Aston Martin Vantage GTE, Porsche 911 RSR and Ferrari 458 Italia GT2.

SRT is beginning a new marketing campaigned aimed at letting drivers know that they are a major brand in the Chrysler family.

“The launch of this campaign marks a significant step forward for us and establishes the SRT brand’s legacy as a vital component of our company,” said SRT head Ralph Gilles.

The campaign, named “Body and Soul,” started the 8th of this month and will be running all summer long in 30, 60, and 90 second spots on TV.

On YouTube, the SRT team put together an extended version of the commercial.

The ads play up the legacy of the muscle car, really hitting the hit nostalgia notes for the golden age of the powerhouse vehicle.

So will this series pay off in the way SRT wants it too?  Jack Nerad, a market analyst at Kelley Blue Book, seems to think so.  He believes that the commercials may cause more of the enthusiasts to the SRT brand which could lead to better overall sales for Chrysler.

With the Viper under their wing, SRT is really making head-way into establishing themselves as one of the premier auto-makers in the US.  It makes sense that they would want to make sure people see them as a whole brand.

srt-viper-gal-023Here’s a wonderful thing to wake up to.  Imagine that it’s a bright and sunny day out.  You get up and through your morning routine until there’s a knock at the door.  Outside is a delivery man with a large trailer in your driveway.  Inside is the car of your dreams waiting to be unwrapped.

That’s the fantasy, but someone did get to experience something similar.  A man by the name of Brian Zuk uploaded a video to his YouTube page that shows, with exuberant glory, the delivery of a 2013 SRT Viper GTS.

He labeled the video as the “First US Delivery” even though that shouldn’t be the case.  The honor of being the first went to the person who won the $300,000 auction and was handed the keys the head-honcho of SRT Ralph Gilles.

Still, the matter of who was first doesn’t matter.  What does is how amazing it is to see.  Give the video a watch and see how simply cool it looks to have a SRT Viper delivered to your doorstep.
