Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR-X

The Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR-X is a track-only version of the Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR.
== Description ==
To commemorate the end of the Phase ZB II Viper and mend the gap from the car's production end until the release of the new car, Dodge offered an improved version of the ACR specifically designed to run in the Dodge Viper Cup Series.
This car, named Viper ACR-X, added to the basic ACR with the tuned 8.4L V10 engine, a new set of downforce-enhancing front canards, long tube headers from American Racing Headers, and new materials that, along with a stripped interior, reduced weight to .
The ACR-X is a purpose-built race car, and is not street-legal. According to Dodge, the car beat the regular record-holding ACR around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca by about three seconds (1:33.9 to 1:31). Price increased by US$12,000 to US$110,000. Production was planned for the spring of 2010. As of February 17, the Viper ACR-X's Nürburgring lap record is 7:03.058, a full 9.072 seconds faster than the regular ACR.

=== Usage ===
With the car’s reshuffle to Class B, the Viper now has relatively good acceleration and nitro efficiency among its rivals, but this comes at a cost of it having a wide drift radius. 
Given the car's poor nitro efficiency, handling and acceleration, the Viper SRT10 ACR-X is not recommended for use in Events. Its only use for Career is a Dodge-only race and a Versus race against the Chevrolet Corvette C7.
In Career mode, this car, alongside the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe Race Car and Chevrolet Corvette C7 are normally primary choices, with each car having their own paramounts to be useful for most of the Class A races.
Given the car's bias towards top speed, it can be quite easy for beginners to use with not much nitro management skill needed, allowing the car to finish up all Class A Career races up to Season 6. Although the CTS-V is considered as a better starter car, it is only usable until Season 6, just like the Viper. On the other hand, the C7 and Sesto Elemento are capable of completing all Class A events in Career mode if used right, making the Viper a rather questionable choice as a starter car.
In Multiplayer, the car underperforms, especially due to its rank and performance, which is unsurprisingly due to the car being intended for starters and not as a formidable Multiplayer competitor. As such, even with the best-tuned MP-friendly upgrade configuration, it isn't as competitive as even the Sbarro Alcador. The Viper SRT10 ACR-X, on the other hand, is one of the Enduro Cars used for the BXR Bailey Blade GT1's Enduro Double Down event, the details of which can be found here. It was later used in the Porsche 918 Spyder with Weissach Package's EDD.

The Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR-X is a Tier 4 vehicle. It requires 80 stars to unlock and costs .
The Viper specializes in top speed alone, with below average to poor statistics in other stats. It has poor launch, mediocre acceleration, weak nitro power, average nitro efficiency, handling and drifting radius. However, its high top speed nonetheless grants the Viper with an above average total speed among early-game Tier 4 cars such as the Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary or the Aston Martin V8 Vantage S. The Viper, thus, does best on longer races; with its average handling, the Viper relies more on track length than track complexity, as its handling and drifting are sufficient to keep momentum even on tracks like Shanghai.
The Viper qualifies as a viable choice for Career Mode; compared to the Countach or the Ferrari California, the Viper has the best total speed, although it accelerates much slower than them. All 3 are considered to be upgrades to the Cadillac CTS-V Coupé and are considered good Tier 4 choices. However, the Viper is suboptimal in Multiplayer, especially when upgraded, as upgrading the Viper puts it dangerously close in contention with the likes of the Ferrari 599XX or the Renault Alpine A110-50, of which the Viper cannot compete once the cars are fully-upgraded, as the Viper loses its top speed advantage against upgraded higher-ended Tier 4 cars while still retaining its acceleration weakness relative to its new matchup.
