The “Viper Red” and “Race White” will remain on both SRT Motorsports Viper entries, the No. 91 and No. 93 Viper SRT GTS-Rs, throughout the entire 2014 IMSA TUDOR United SportsCar Championship season. The very colors of the new Dodge Viper SRT GTS-R livery are the colors that were sported during the overall Dodge Viper victory in 2000 in the Rolex 24 at Daytona, as well as the GTS class win in the 2000 24 Hours of Le Mans and the American Le Mans Series championships in 1999 and 2000.
