New Viper drift car

Chrysler is serious about getting the youth market interested in its products. Chrysler’s Mopar aftermarket performance parts division will be a major sponsor of the coming season’s Formula Drift Series and will even sponsor a car in the series. But not just any car, a full-blown, drift-tuned Dodge Viper.
Stunt driver Sam Hubinette will pilot. Hubinette grew up in northern Sweden, where it snows “about seven months of the year,” so he has been going sideways most of his driving life. Hubinette was a winter test driver for Volvo and a driver in the Swedish touring car series before coming to the United States to drive in television commercials. He most recently served as an instructor at the Skip Barber racing school.


kinda crazy first the gto now the viper.
