Right that makes sense..

Get the Viper to the point where it's absolutely lethal and winning, and then bail.

Good plan, FCA.

It does make sense. Racing is to generate interest in a car and/or manufacturer to sell more cars. The Viper is on the verge of being discontinued, so clearly participating in these races is not translating to sales.
