Unofficial: Dodge Viper ACR laps 'Ring in record 7:22.1
We're not terribly surprised that the Dodge Viper ACR has apparently made it around the famed German racing circuit faster than pretty much anything else you'll find on a dealer's lot. After all, the ACR is a race car, as evidenced by the video that Motor Trend has posted. The most venomous Viper has done the deed in 7:22, fast enough to make grown men cry. To this blogger, the Viper is dead gorgeous, even with that yucky-but-functional rear wing on the ACR, and it definitely carries the spirit of hairy-chested cars of yore. The shifter wobbles around horrendously when the driver kisses the rev limiter a few times, and there even appears to be a flubbed shift near the end, so the ACR may have faster laps left in it. We're waiting on confirmation on whether or not this is an official lap, but it's certainly creating a stir, and the Viper wants to know, V-Spec who? Thanks for the tip, Rob.
Holly f@$#!!! That time is incredible, if it is true.

Yes, it might be ugly and feel cheap to many, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Either way, it gets the job done, which is what the ACR is all about. respect.
We're definately creeping to towars the 6 minutes xxx seconds out of production cars. WOW. Who will break the 7 minute mark??? That'll be something to see in a few years.

Seeing is believing, here is the video!! I think it could have been faster because the driver keeps hitting the rev-limiter and not trusting the V-10's torque..Shift the damn thing already!!
