Vehicle Description
Lot #633 - This historically significant Hennessey Viper was once
the fastest stock-tired car ever tested by Motor Trend magazine
(December 2004). It was the first Viper SRT-10 to run a
quarter-mile in the 10s, and it was the first third-generation
Hennessey Venom 650R. It was purchased new by John Myrick, winner
of One Lap America in 2003, and it was he who drove the car for
Motor Trend magazine during their testing; he is credited on
Dragtimes.com for the 3rd Gen Venom 650R Quarter-Mile times that he
achieved that day. Motor Trend raced the car and clocked it at 0-60
in 2.99 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 10.76 seconds at 131 mph
on stock tires. Then they raced it 0-60 in 2.6 seconds and a
quarter-mile of 10.44 seconds at 135mph on slicks. Achieving this
power is an 8.4-liter V10 engine mated to a 6-speed manual
transmission. The car has less than 15,000 actual miles and is
black on black with a cloth retractable roof. It has been
garage-kept and includes the original Dodge owner's manual, factory
car cover, all Hennessey 650R package spec sheets (including dyno
pulls), and two copies of the 2004 volume of Motor Trend magazine,
in which the car was tested. The radio does work, but there is not
output and tires on vehicle are all original. CARFAX shows FCA US
LLC manufacturer safety recall opened on 02/06/2015: ORC module.
