Chrysler revealed this week that 33 special "Crusher Orange" SRT Viper TA models will be sold beginning in the third quarter of 2013. The new model will be shown for the first time at the Jacob Javits Center during the New York Auto Show on Mar. 27.

The new vehicle was produced based on the SRT Viper, which is the smallest vehicle in the lineup according to a company press release. The TA in the name stands for Time Attack with the company's track record ambitions in mind according to Chrysler.

"The new 2014 SRT Viper TA is being engineering for the dedicated track enthusiast, who still wants to drive to the track and take their hobby to the next level" said Ralph Gilles , President and CEO - SRT Brand and Motorsports, Chrysler Group LLC according to a company press release. "We're re-launching some of the fastest production-built cars that people can buy straight from the factory."

The suspension on the new vehicle is "uniquely tuned" and specifically upgraded for the new model for on-track usage and so that drivers can fully maximize the performance of the Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires. The shocks for the vehicle are two-mode Bilstein Damptronic that has firmer levels of damping and a smaller spread between modes according to Chrysler.

The car will use the same 8.4-liter aluminum V10 engine that can produce 640 horsepower and 600 lb-ft of torque.

"Our engineers revised the suspension settings to refocus the Viper specifically for track duty, using a blend of components from the GTS and the SRT models, add in the extensively developed aero package and the new Time Attack package is born," said Gilles according to the company release. "We're not only saluting the existing capabilities of our current models, we're also targeting another niche in our customer base with a tremendously capable track machine."

Pricing has yet to be released for the SRT Viper TA vehicle, but since only 33 will be made the vehicle is expected to be pretty expensive. The vehicles will be made at the Conner Avenue Assembly Plant in Detroit.
