SRT Viper GTS-R Le Mans 2013It’s been a long time coming, but Viper is finally heading back to Le Mans.

The drivers at SRT have been getting ready for months now. They wanted to make sure the triumphant return to Le Mans with the SRT Viper GTS-R was something iconic. To make sure they brought only the best, the entire racing team even moved to France.

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.

For those wanting to catch the race, Speed TV will be broadcasting the race live on Saturday. Just head over to their website to check it out. If you want more news about the SRT team, you can keep up with them on their blog at www.drivesrt.com/live.

Watch This Amazing Video of a 2013 Viper GTS Being Delivered

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.

2013_srt_viper_f34_ns_52813_600The Sons of Italy Foundation is the charity arm of the Sons of Italy in America, also known as OSIA.  Their aim is to preserve Italian American culture and helping with the education of Italian Americans.  To that end, they just got a special one-of-a-kind SRT Viper GTS to auction off.

This is a one-off Viper GTS just for them.  It’s got a tri-coat pearl white paintjob and black vapor chrome wheels.  Inside, the colors of the Italian flag are on the seats and a GTS badge, also painted in the colors of the Italian flag, is right on the glovebox.

The Sons of Italy Foundation will be auctioning this unique and amazing vehicle at some unknown date in the future.  There’s no word yet even on what the worth is for the special Viper.  I can’t imagine that this thing is leaving the auction floor cheaply.

The fine folks at SRT even put together a YouTube video teasing the one-of-a-kind Viper:
