Dodge Viper ACR Nurburgring Lap Time Video Released

Even though the accuracy of Nurburgring records has been debunked ad nauseaum, the low-IQ crowd still seems to take some stock in their veracity – or maybe they just need a lot of visual stimulation. Either way, the Dodge Viper ACR has apparently set a new lap record for the Nurburgring, and there exists video “proof” of this miraculous non-event.

The Viper Club of America has pandered to these folks by releasing video of the event (below the jump) which is really not all that exciting – although we do get some cool V10 sounds towards the end. Nonetheless, the slick production should hopefully convince any holdouts that these Nurburgring lap time runs are just contrived marketing ploys and nothing more.

    "...these Nurburgring lap time runs are just contrived marketing ploys and nothing more." I agree that it is a marketing concept but it is also much more than that. Performance has always been the mainstay of the Viper brand and for you to say that having the fastest production lap is just theater, is just plain wrong. Do you drive a Corvette or Lexus by any chance?
