Precision Engineering for Competitive Edge
At the heart of the Viper 977 WC Limited Edition lies a meticulously crafted 5mm 7075 aerospace-quality aluminum chassis. This precision CNC-machined component ensures optimal stiffness and balance, crucial for high-speed stability and control on the track. The engraved Viper 977 WC logo not only signifies its exclusivity but also adds a touch of elegance to its robust design.

Equipped with independent double wishbone suspension and RCM shock absorbers, the Viper 977 WC offers superior handling and responsiveness. The adjustable camber, caster, and toe-in settings allow racers to fine-tune the car's dynamics to suit varying track conditions.
