Competition is part of human nature; the need to compete and beat the other guy seems to be built into our DNA. When it comes to the nature of competition and the need to compete, the methods have changed over the millennia but the goal is the same. From the footraces in early Greek Olympic competitions, to mounting a horse and competing in a derby, to strapping into a high-performance automobile and chasing the checkered flag, winning a race is a definitive statement.
Chrysler Group, the SRT brand, and SRT Motorsports are returning to the world of auto racing with the entry of two SRT Viper GTS-R race cars in the iconic 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race. Competing against some of the best motorsports companies, teams, and race cars in the world, the 24 Hours of Le Mans is a great proving ground for SRT and a great chance to test their mettle.
"For me, it's the competition you're racing against - there are some fantastic global performance brands racing in the sport and mixing it up with those brands sets the scene for what happens in the showroom," said SRT chief Ralph Gilles. "We sell SRT vehicles all over the world and racing in the 24 Hours of Le Mans reminds car enthusiasts who we are and how we appreciate world class motorsports."
Few races are as exciting to watch or participate in as automobile races. A lucky few get the opportunity to buckle up in an extremely powerful and capable race car and drive as fast as they can. But the fast driving and the engineering resources invested in building race cars often translates to better performing, more interesting vehicles that those of us who are not race car drivers can find right here at Brunswick Auto Mart and enjoy without worrying about wearing a flame-retardant safety suit and helmet.
Two examples of vehicles improved by auto racing and available to non-race-car drivers are the striking 2013 SRT Viper, upon which the SRT Viper GTS-R is based, and the 2013 Dodge Challenger, both of which can be found at your friendly Brunswick Dodge dealership. The 2013 SRT Viper is a high performance supercar that brings a taste of auto racing to your garage, while the more accessible 2013 Dodge Challenger offers near-race-car levels of performance you can share with three of your closest friends.
Whether you want to compete or just feel the thrill of driving a high-performance vehicle, check out the 2013 SRT Viper and 2013 Dodge Challenger at your local car dealers, Brunswick Auto Mart.
