With the recent release of RacePro, we have noticed the community slowly dwindling away, and have decided to do something about it. So S&R and FBI have joined forces to show the gaming community where our loyalties lie.
When I first started up the thread with the poll asking what everyone was going to do upon release of RacePro, we knew a whole heap of people would be heading over, and losing interest in Forza, but we didn't imagine the amount of people that were going to stay loyal to Forza too. This loyalty sparked a fuse in the minds of FBI and S&R, thus naturally bringing us together for this release. Call it Forza fate if you will.
So if you are a loyal Forza follower, and you aren't being turned by the ways of RacePro, then stand up, raise your hand, and say no to RacePro with this unique, original Viper.
We are gonna say it loud and proud, and you can join us too!
"SAY NO TO RACEPRO! Keep the forza spirit alive!"
It's slightly hard to see in the pics but the decals on the car are outright hilarious. Great job AB and Fletch, the paint came out great.

Review by Dougty40:
The car: S&R/FBI Collaboration S998 Viper SRT10 "Say No To Race Pro"
First Impressions: The paint on this car is very detailed, and you can only see it all in the game. The "Just Say No To Race Pro" logos and indeed the whole concept are just brilliant. I think the word is awesome. As for the tune, it's not your standard SRT10 that's for sure, this can be driven with TCS off and it'll stay on the track.
On The Tracks: Mugello was my first full race in the pro series, and with TCS off the Viper should be a real handfull at every turn. It does spin the tyres off the start, but by third gear it's all calm, and grips very well. Taking the turns at Mugello was easy, even without the TCS helping, yes I did spin the tyres during more forgetfull moments, but it still stayed on. A 1:46.129 was my best lap, and I am happy with that for a RWD no TCS Viper.
At Silverstone International there are two quite tight turns which should catch the big and powerful SRT10 out. They didn't, and the Viper just flew out of them with just a little care on the throttle. Laptimes of 1:17.418 from me means more for the diehard RWD fans out there in S class.
Suzuka and the long circuit seemed considerably shorter in the S&R/FBI collab car despite a few slips causing a loss of traction in the turns. A 1:58.104 was the best recorded laptime, but that had nearly 2 seconds of penalty as did at least one other lap that would have seen low 1:56's.
Maple Valley isn't a track you'd usually see a Viper on. Indeed when someone puts the SRT10 out on MV in an online lobby everybody fears a noob attack, and stays out of the way. I wasn't online so my reputation as a noob is purely based on my other driving, but the Viper took Maples undulations, and twisty track in its stride with a very unexpected 1:24.111 better than I've done in some more "normal" cars for MV and they had TCS on.
Sebring Short was the final circuit for the Viper. It did pretty well too, despite feeling the cars roots into turn one, once I had that down it was pretty easy going after Maple Valley. A 1:07.767 could be improved but I was happy with that.
The Verdict: A stunning paintjob, done with tongue firmly in cheek but still done to a very high standard. The "Just Say No To Race Pro" was a bit of a cheeky livery to release so soon after the game was but kudos to S&R and FBI for getting it out so quickly and for doing it so well. The tune is also top notch, you really can drive it with no TCS, and it works well on a variety of tracks. It's fun to drive too, at times it'll bite you if you don't respect it and that keeps you alert. It's quick enough, not a leaderboard car, but I've won races online with it. Even though I have several S class cars to choose from, I have been using this a lot lately because it is such a driveable tune. Well worth the investment for a fun, different and ultimately driveable S class car. Just say yes to this one.
