    👋I WAS THERE! That's MY Red VIPER !😎 Met 3 out of the 5 hosts! These Guys are so Down to Earth! 💯We were there ALL DAY and had lunch together and saw firsthand how Hard they have to work for just minutes of Footage! Entire Production team was great. Awesome experience with my kid, 2 friends I took along at Willow Springs Raceway !!
  • @gerardoqm
    I’m proud of these boys. You know you made it when the Nissan Ariya ad before their video it also starred the Donut crew 🎉
  • @nexorabolis
    Those gen5 sales figures were heartbreaking 💔 such an incredible vehicle, hope it comes back some day

    I worked at the Dodge Viper plant for 15 years the Viper built by the best in the car business. We wanted the Viper owns to have one of the top quality sports cars we took great pride in being able to be a part of building the Dodge Viper. I want to thank the Donut on sharing on all the Vipers that were built.

    These guys are advertising geniuses. Having Zach's mom help with Mother's products is amazing. Keep it up gentleman.
  • The Dodge Viper has always been my absolute favorite car since childhood, every racing game I played it was a must have go-to car. When I found out they cancelled production I was devastated. To this day it is my dream car, will always wish I could have a chance to even see one in person. You guys killed it with this video, and it was glorious watching this absolute beast of a car in its full lifespan and truly seeing how it evolved. Thank you for this amazing video.

    I loved vipers so much as a kid. This video put such a huge smile on my face seeing how much those two enjoyed these amazing pieces of machinery. I envy Jeremiah and Nolan. Awesome video.
  • Had a great time filming with Donut at Willow Springs International Raceway. Amazing how much work you guys do for such short clips after the editing. Great meeting everybody. Nolan Jeremiah Rahim/Harris Joey Nicky David Kaiser Kars And the rest of the production crew. Thanks for inviting my TA Orange Ram SRT-10 out there. She had fun even though Jeremiah seemed kind of scared to push it. Nolan actually drove it pretty good. Sorry my supercharged RC YF lost a piston and couldn't make it. To the editing team - THATS ME DOING THE BURNOUTS - THANK YOU LOL. my truck is for sale ( to build a motor for the YF)and yes the new owner gets new rear tires lol

    Jerry's face being dead serious while driving the Mk 4 was hilarious

    I dreamed of owning a Viper since I saw my first one in 1992 in person at my local Dodge dealer when I was just 13 years old. I promised myself I’d find a way to buy one someday despite not having much growing up, and I let that be a big part of my motivation to achieve success professionally. Almost exactly 20 years later I bought my first Viper, a 2008 convertible in blue w/ silver racing stripes, and it was the most visceral & fun car I’ve ever driven. Owning it has been one of the most rewarding things I’ve done in my life (aside from getting married, having kids, & buying my house… haha). Then a few years later, I bought the ultimate Viper, a 2017 ACR Extreme that was fully custom ordered from Dodge as a 1 of 1 car in a color that nobody else had, and with special options from the factory that you couldn’t get on an ACR otherwise. That car is truly the pinnacle of not only the Viper’s entire production run, but it’s also by far the most exciting, track focused, and extreme car I’ve ever driven period (and I’ve driven the majority of sports cars and supercars on the market from the last decade). I use the 2008 as my Sunday “fun” car to enjoy driving, while the 2017 is the highlight of my collection and makes appearances at a few special car events each year. It’s sad that the Viper was killed off and will likely never be produced again, but it’s also amazing that we had a car such as the Viper created & produced, and that we can still enjoy driving and racing them going forward. And I fully agree with the assessments of each generation of Viper in this video, as they kept getting better with age (at least the engine & performance), with the Gen 5 combining the best of performance, looks, and overall features to be one of the best supercars ever made. 🏎️💨

    The timing of this car's production and the fact that there are very few of them out there ( one of which is in my garage with 138,000 miles on it.) make it incredibly singular and unique. Extraordinary design. Damn near unbeatable in it's final form. Unless Dodge has something absolutely out of this world to offer, I hope Dodge let's the Viper legacy rest. As they said in the vid... Don't be sad that it's no longer being made. Be thankful this car existed at all.
  • @pinoytrash
    this video made me realize that i haven't seen jerry drive (or at least not as much as everyone else) because jesus christ, that man can drive a car. there is a scary stoic-ness about every time he drove, so cool.
  • @kartoshka1952
    I love how calm jerry looks while driving, hes so focused he doesnt even smile lol
  • @earag31415
    I got the chills watching this. Experienced vicariously through you guys. It’s easy to see how much you enjoyed driving your dream car. At some points you both sounded like excited little kids. One of my favorite videos of the channel. Thanks, Donut.
  • @hitmanvr6
    Honestly the smiles on the two of your faces when you drove the first RT10 is just so cool. You could tell that you guys were legit pulling those smiles from your teenage cells like we all were when we had posters of that red viper on our walls!!
  • @Enigma7767
    This series fills a niche for me that has been left open since the end of the Clarkson ERA Top Gear. You guys are genuinely having fun and respecting the hell out of awesome cars. I love it, and am so jealous.
  • @muyskerm
    This is such a great series guys. I was never a viper fan but this was still such a trip across the eras of the car. Please keep doing these they never miss.
  • @SenEscape
    The audio production in this is fantastic. Honestly one of the best sounding YouTube videos I've ever watched/heard.
