[The Frenchy]

First track test with our new VIPER ACR Extreme 2016 on Circuit de Ledenon ( South of France 3150m lenght track and just 25kms of my home )

First feedback it's a very good car !! woahw !

our last best lap time on this track is 1.39.5 with a F430 F1 and some mods

and with the ACR after just 1 hour of training without pushing limits we do a 1.35.9 !!! just awesome for a starting point !!!

How was the tires response? Any notes you can share on that?

So agree Fatboy..................always baffles me when someone says the Viper does not sound great? Apparently they need their ears cleaned as that was a symphony going down the straight!!

Thanks for sharing and we will all wait for a full track video in the future. Viva La France!!

yes ! ;)
car is full stock with track set up of the dodge manual book
we start cold with 27psi and after 3 warming laps we are at 30psi and 33-34psi on hot laps
the car is very impressive suspension set up is perfect and the feedback of tires is very good ! much better than the Michelin Sport Cup 1 on the F430 but car is different so...
Kuhmo are very soft i think we can't make more of 1 track day with front tires ... but in my opinion it's the best grip for a street/Track tire
i'm little bit affraid with pads and rotors life time too so we have order a full kit of GIRODISC rotors and pads
the biggest problem is to find Kuhmo V720 in Europe is just impossible ... so we need to find solution on this because for waiting we have a set of front Michelin Sport Cup 2 but i think Kuhmo are much better
For Kuhmo we need to wait if friends bring back container to France ...

very exciting too return to the track !! this car is just amazing !! :D
next time Ledenon the 1st of June and Catalunya GP F1 track the 22th of June !!! :D

Well done nice one! I'm sure you will enjoy it more and more. You can order Kumho's from JonB. He will deliver anywhere. I usually got him to send me 18 tires at a time to the UK! No problem. Paid customs and tyres were delivered to my door(wife not so happy when they arrive!..) Can't see why you can't get that done for France? Actually the all in the price comes out to the same price if I were to buy Trofeo R's here in the UK so no difference there.
