It appears the tides have shifted for the better.

I like this quote:

“Track mode does not interfere. It will let you embarrass yourself on the track.”

I hope 2014 is remembered as the year that saved the Viper, because at this point 2013 could be remembered as the year that killed the Viper. Its good to see the press finally getting their heads of the a$$es and give the Viper the respect it deserves. As much as it hurts to say, I think the media can make or break the car right now. I will admit, its been a while since I read a bad review.

I really hope the TA is the saving grace for Viper. 2013 was a rough year all around for the car.

TA looks pretty good in black. Not as good as ORANGE, but still damn good. Someone want to buy my white SRT? I'm craving orange.

This is what the Gen V should have been from the beginning.

Definitely a home run. A hardcore model for the purists and track rats.

The joke on everyone is, the SRT and GTS have minimal changes from the TA... (not knocking the TA, it is a beast)

Truth is, all three models are within 1 second at Laguna Seca. Add the carbon aero to the GTS and SRT, and that gap will close. It would be a driver's race between the three cars. Still, I just dig the TA and would love to add one to the stable one day. Or a Gen V ACR, come on SRT give us one!

Imagine the sales traction the car would have received in 2013 if the T/A was the Viper sent to that first botched track test. Can't look back, but it sure has been a relief to see some positive reviews with this model.
