Dodge Viper Safari: an off-road modification you wouldn’t expect | Video

When it comes Dodge Viper The last thought that comes to mind is that of a version off the roadbut if someone has made a limousine out of it, the birth of a street translation does not seem so surprising.

Obviously, the growth of the supernatural does not cleanse them from original sin, which remains very bad. However, some people, especially in the United States, find their relationship with sports cars in a non-religious way. Some treatments done even on legendary Ferraris prove this. This hurts the heart, but in the world there are different feelings and we must also accept the tastes of others, even if they are light years away from our own.

The off-road version of the old Dodge Viper has a wild look, like a car that starts. After all, the work of the body is more or less the same, even if it is placed at a higher level than the road surface. The idea to create it came from Matt Brown, of the SuperfastMatt YouTube channel. The job wasn’t limited to 12-inch lift kits and road tires, but it required a lot of intervention. Other problems also arose during the work, which were happily solved by the author of the unusual to fix.

He himself, in the video at the bottom of this post, shows in detail what he did to make his Dodge Viper suitable for road use, directed towards action in rough and unpaved environments. The cycle of change started last January and is now well underway. The properties of the model “collection”, understood as a, will be tested shortly Travel Edition.

Others talk about an act of love for a model. I remain firm in my positions and consider this correction as a heresy: an opinion. I prefer the classic version: a car for nostalgics, lovers of the old school feeling, where the spirit is shortened which, unfortunately, is old. On the Dodge Viper the connection to the car is pure and visceral, without electronic interference. The result is a real emotional stimulus, best given to those who have some technical skills.

Tough and clean, the American muscle car, under the muscular characteristics of its bodywork, welcomes a V10 engine 8 liters, and about 400 horses and 630 Nm of torque. Most of the power moves the car’s 1490 kg body, with the help of a 6-speed manual gearbox and without traction assist devices. The sound is cavernous: it’s easy to get emotionally involved in its notes, even if they are expressed in a modified version for off-road use, like the one we told you about in the post.
