Huh. Well.

Admittedly I don't know much about vipers, but it doesn't look all that different. And from reading, didn't sound like it was much changed either.

Yeah . . . I was more interested into why Roush would Mod a Viper, given his relationship with Ford.

Yeah, me too. Except as a standalone business, maybe he wants to expand to other segments. The Viper just seems a strange route to go if that's the plan.

Roush is more than just a Ford supporter.
He needs to have clients for these services.

He used to do Trans Am, maybe IMSA too, and I think he even did drag racing, Jason may know more than I do

Gapp and Roush were a famous ProStock team from the early 70's.
They ran Pinto's, 4 dr Mavericks, and Mustang II's in those days.
I saw them race the Pinto and Maverick.

I've always been a lover of hennessy for a long time. This one looks sick IMO. I'd take that any day over Roush's.
