Tom Coronel drivining Dodge Viper ACR at the Ring with Telemetry
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.
this result is FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) driver Tom Coronel, who pilots a Leon TFSi for SEAT Team Holland. On his fourth attempt, he established an amazing 7:22.1 (first two laps-a 7:42 and a 7:35 and third 7:24).

Pagani Zonda R - Nurburgring lap
Pagani - Pirelli Tyre - Assuring new technologies and materials are fit for production means also putting the vehicle's components under severe stresses, exceeding those normally encountered in every day road driving.
The Nürburgring Nordschleife is the most demanding track in the world, for man and machine, an ordeal that each Pagani has to pass, only one of many in the entire development phase.
The Zonda R serves as the ultimate test bench, a car able to reach acceleration figures and speeds that are not possible with a road car.
This is further underlined by a laptime of 6:47,5 min for the 20,832 km Nordschleife. Driver: Marc Basseng
Dodge Viper Lap Record at Nürburgring : 7'12"13 (Motorsport)
Une rumeur annonçait que la Dodge Viper ACR avait battu le record de la Lexus LFA (7'14"64) sur la Nordschleife en 7'12"13. Aujourd'hui, la firme américaine confirme, vidéo à la clé.
Pour rappel, la Viper ACR est une véritable voiture de course échappée des circuits avec son V10 de 612ch et 77,3 mk de couple, ses 1 533 kg et surtout ses suspensions et son aileron réglable. A l'occasion de ce record, l'équipe de SRT a très légèrement modifié la sportive utilisée. Le cinquième rapport a été raccourci (0,80 au lieu de 0 74) tandis que l'aileron a été redessiné pour améliorer l'aérodynamique.
Le pilote de GT Dominik Farnbacher était aux commandes de la Viper ACR qui a réalisé le record le 14 septembre dernier. Quant à Ralph Gilles, président de SRT et de la division sport auto du groupe Chrysler, il s'est dit extrêmement fier de ce temps.
La Viper ACR devient ainsi la quatrième auto la plus rapide sur le Nürburgring, juste derrière l'impressionnante Gumpert Apollo Sport (7'11"57). Le meilleur chrono est toujours la propriété de la barquette anglaise Radical SR8 LM avec 6'48.
La bagarre continue...

motorguru.com - Dodge Viper Factory Tour (host: Justin Bell)
motorguru's Justin Bell, world champion Viper factory driver, visits the Conner Avenue Assembly Plant in Detroit where each 600 horsepower Dodge Viper is hand assembled with pride - one vehicle at a time.
(See the complete Dodge Viper SRT10 video car at http://motorguru.com/video.html?v=40 )
motorguru's Justin Bell has a long history with Viper including being part of the factory Oreca Viper Team, winning the 1997 GT2 World Drivers Championship and the 1998 Le Mans 24 Hour race in the same category. Visiting the Conner Avenue Assembly Plant was somewhat of a homecoming for Justin and the team at motorguru. This motorFEATURE video is a story that motorguru.com has wanted to tell for some time. Conner Ave. is not at all a typical automated factory. Each Viper is hand assembled with unbelievable dedication from long-time craftsmen and craftswomen who take great pride in their work. Only seven to eight Vipers are produced each day in a straight line assembly line totally just over 700 feet long. Viper fans and owners know well the story and history of Conner Ave. Experience with motorguru.com perhaps the best of what Detroit has to offer.

Koenigsegg review - Top Gear - BBC
From the nation that gave us some of the safest cars on the roads comes the Keonigsegg with a rather safety-defying top speed. Its brutally fast as Jeremy Clarkson testifies as he tries to reach its top speed - a staggering 245mph. But is there actually enough track to reach the top speed?
