Twin-Turbo Dodge Viper
Despite Fiat Chrysler group announcing that the Viper would end production in 2017, there are still hardcore fans willing to shell out top dollars for a pristine example, but this 2006 model year vehicle was designed for another purpose. It’s been fitted with a twin-turbocharger system that boosts power output to a whopping 1,400-horsepower, good enough to hit a stop speed of 252 mph.



The seems normal at first, or at least through the first few gears, but after that, the 100 mph – 200 mph sprint takes just 10-seconds, while the acceleration continues on all the way up until 240 mph before hitting a top speed of 252.588 mph. The official timing and speed figures are recorded by the International Mile Racing Association (IMRA), a sanctioning body that includes Guinness World Records.
