The RAM SRT-10 VCA Edition Registry

Dodge delivered 50 Pace Truck Replicas to Daytona Florida to NASCAR from Auburn Hills, Michigan on February 5th, 2004.

The Ram SRT-10 was the Pace Truck for the season opener, Florida Dodge Dealers 250 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race at Daytona International Speedway. The Ram SRT-10 will have no problem meeting the performance requirements of Pace Truck duty. Earlier in the week, Nextel Cup Rookie of the Year contender Brendan Gaughn averaged 154.587 mph over two opposite-direction "flying kilometers," setting a Guinness World Record for the Fastest Production Pickup Truck. The record was set on DaimlerChrysler's Chelsea Michigan Proving Grounds' 4.71-mile high-speed oval.

Two Pace Trucks

Two Pace Trucks were built that were equipped with Automatic Transmissions, a NASCAR requirement. A total of 50 Replica’s were built to mark the occasion incorporating the Pace Truck design cues to include the Electric Blue paint with White Stripes, embroidered SRT logo on floor mats, Viper Club of America exterior logos and a commemorative dash plaque with serial number. These 50 trucks were equipped with a Manual Transmission. Of those 50, 49 are in this book. The Theory is the first VCA was a repaint, so the build sheet does not show the Electric Blue paint on the Equipment List and with the number of clones throughout the years, some kind of provenance (i.e. Window Sticker and Race paraphernalia would be needed to prove authenticity).

The two Pace Trucks were reportedly returned Auburn Hills Michigan and destroyed.
“The fact that the Ram SRT-10 bears a close resemblance to our NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series entry is not just a coincidence,” said Dan Knott, Director–Street and Racing Technology (SRT). “The same aerodynamicist who worked on our NASCAR entries handled the aerodynamics for the Ram SRT-10. The challenges posed by racing are the same we experienced with the Ram SRT-10; speeds in excess of 150 mph, cooling for the brakes and engine, and the need to create front and rear downforce.
