Actually, the Viper has a very good 48/52 weight relation between front and rear axles...

I mean this was the whole problem that Dodge had with the Viper. The V10 made the car frontheavy and the RWD didn't help. Dodge could have greatly improved the Viper by putting the Hemi V8 in it instead of a V10.

I also think the car is more meant to be a concept car than anything else. I wouldn't have put a V12 in a GTI. The GTI is just not the right car for it. I think it would have been better to build a Passat with the V12. I think if they knock the motor down to the 4.2-liter V8, it would handle much better and they could fit more creature comforts into the car. They should put the 6-liter V12 into the Audi R8 instead. The R8 is just a better car for it. Honestly the GTI isn't meant for a V12.

Damn. I see it handles poorly around corners. That could be improved if they put the 4-motion AWD drivetrain on it. But wouldn't it improve the handling if they put the 4.2-liter V8 in it instead of a V12? I don't think the guy understands that a car with a V12 is supposed to be a racecar. No A/C. Roll the windows down. They could greatly improve the car by putting larger brakes, AWD and better handling features on it. They should use it as a concept car and improve it. It's backheavy.

Well..!It looks super fast,i bet it is!But what about the handling?If i cant controle it on a country road and crash it what then!The car isn't finisched and just like xxlliquid sayd it needs a 4 motion drive train.Put a Golf R 32 and a Golg W 12 on tha track an see the result.R 32 wins with much better handling despite the less HP.
