SRT Viper Ready for 24 Hours of Le Mans This Weekened

It’s been over ten years since a Viper ran at Le Mans, but SRT is returning for the 90th edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend! A lot has changed since Vipers won the GTS class three consecutive times, from 1998 to 2000, but SRT feels they are ready, with two identically prepared Viper GTS-Rs. The No. 91 Viper has already had three top-five finishes in the ALMS series, including a third place at Long Beach.
