Dodge Viper Video

Here is the end result of our days filming at El Mirage and Tehachapi, our KBB Dodge Viper Feature Video.





Drifting the Viper around El Mirage dry lake bed may not seem like work but by the end of the day I actually felt nauseous from all the motion. These are the sacrifices I make for the greater good.

Thriller

Delano already posted a few pics from Viper shoot but I wanted to share another. Hours spent being blasted by Viper drift dust left Mike looking like an extra from Thriller. Here he is in the appropriate pose.
It just goes to prove that it pays to be the driver. Need more proof? Here is the moment I swapped the Nissan GT-R for the Dodge Challenger SRT8. There hasn't been a more impressive convergence of machinery since Voltron defended planet Arus from the evil King Zarkon . (and I'm talking about lion Voltron not that lame vehicle version)
