Attention Viper fans...and isn't that just about everyone?  

                The April US car mags are full of articles about a club racer
Chryco...err DamnLer Chrysler is selling.  A SCCA spec Viper coupe.  IT
won't be in the same class as the GTS-R cars that raced at LeMans and the
FIA and ALMS series...more tuned to the club racer.  And about 1/3 of the
price of the old GTS-R racehorse. But it's nice to see the German
Accountants haven't totally forgotten the road racing Snake.

Dave:

AFAIK, it isn't built to any particular SCCA class, and I imagine it's
probably too radical for the near-stock T1.  Should certainly be welcome
in the catch-all classes (ITE or SPO depending on the region) at the
Regional level.  I believe the Viper Club's fledging racing program is
the primary market.

Supposedly it's eligible for Grand-Am Cup competition too.  Not sure which
class.  All planned production for this year has been sold already, so
somebody must be running them.

Skimmed the cover story in the new R&T that came yesterday.  Primary
market is Viper Club guys, with World Challenge and GAC also in the mix.
