Nice to meet you again Misha! Last time we met was 5 years ago -my first time at the Ring and the only other time I brought the ACR there-and was when I had just bought the ACR(it was only 8.4 liters then!🤣).. Anyway sorry I wasn't able to do full send everyone due to conditions and my relative inexperience of the Ring, however hope you all got a least a little bit of flavour of the beast! Sorry for the misunderstanding also, car has 2 custom silencers in each sill so its not straight piped and hence max dbs are about 105-106dbs-well within the Ring track noise limits. But still good to wear ear protection inside to protect ears! We'll do this again sometime in the future hopefully!👍

@@SeeKrez Not necessarily. Despite its reputation, the Viper has always been remarkably predictable when pushed hard, and the ACR is no exception. Most of the idiots wrecking Vipers do so because they have no experience with proper performance cars, are often on old dry-rotted tires, and are then surprised when an 8.4-liter V10 has more low-end torque than most diesels.

One of the most enjoyable Rings I’ve seen in awhile. Great effort by the driver given the conditions. That car had a lot more in it. I can’t imagine. It sounded like it was at 70% of Ass over teakettle

Everything about this car is exciting and the displacement is just bonkers. "Very stable" - took the words right out of my mouth. Barely any corrections needed from the driver, the car handles great and has tons of grip. Just a bit more clearance wouldn't hurt for the Nordschleife. Kudos also to the gentleman who in spite of these conditions still managed proper throttle control and speed while keeping it safe. ❤❤ Only love for the H-Shifter! A proper machine, hope it serves him well.

The torque at all rpm's makes these such monsters on a track.

The Viper's huge torque wave around the ring seems a totally different experience compared to most cars . The engine does not sound strained even at redline but the acceleration is for real when you see the scenery blur and i know you're feeling the hand of god in your back. Nice smooth lap with my volume cranked up!!! Thanks.
