GT5 Transcripts/Dodge VIPER SRT10 '03

In 2003 the Dodge Viper underwent a full model change, which included changing the name of the Viper RT/10 to the Viper SRT-10. With its long-nosed roadster exterior, it kept the same basic concept, but came equipped with, among other features, a foldable soft top designed to give it a more user friendly feeling than before.
In maintaining the same concept as the previous model, it uses the same mechanical components, including the layout of the engine, suspension system, and 6-speed manual transmission. Nonetheless, in the frame, suspension, and other sections, there are no parts that were taken from the older version.
The engine size was increased slightly from the former model, upgrading from a 488CI to a 505CI (8.3.0L). The maximum output increased from 450 PS (444 HP) to 507 PS (500 HP) and the maximum torque from 490lbs-ft to 500lbs-ft. Incidentally, these numbers are called "500/500/500" (Triple Five Hundred) performance. Dodge uses this as its catch phrase for its high-performance SRT series, including the Viper SRT-10 and Ram SRT-10.
The vehicle is 175.5 inches long, 75.2 inches wide, and 47.6 inches tall, with a 98.8 inch wheel base. The front tread measures 57.8 inches and the rear 60.9 inches. Its dry weight is 1533 kg.
The size of the forged aluminum wheels is 18 inches in diameter at the front and 19inches in the rear with a 13inch width. The spec for the tires are 275/35ZR18 in the front 345/30ZR19 in the rear. Though the size and weight is not an unreasonable figure, but stop and consider that the Viper has the width of a four ton truck, and it puts the personality of the Viper more into perspective.
