Dodge Viper : beaux livres - histoire, types et technique

Dodge Viper: the full story of the worlds first V-10 Sportscar

Until the Viper was unveiled, Dodge's manufacturing had been focussed on front-wheel drive, mostly four-cylinder powered cars. With the Viper, Dodge showed that it could make a raw, brutal, V10-powered car, that could run with the best American performance cars. At Le Mans, Team Viper showed that the car could also handle turns - so well that it won its class - and all at a fraction of cost of the cars it beat.

Discover the full story of the world's first V10 sports car - Chrysler Corporation's 1990s image building V10 engined sports car: the Dodge Viper. The Viper stunned Americans and showed that Dodge, known for tame cars and minivans, could make a brutal monster of a sports car. This book covers the Viper from concept, to rough rocket, to world-class supercar.
