What's up with the racing stripes? HISTORY!
Take a look at old Dodge racers. Take a look at old Shelby cars.
Those stripes have a long lineage and you are going to keep seeing them. The Viper GTS has really borrowed a lot from the old Shelby GT cars (especially in rear profile) and it is likely the next-gen GTS-R will keep the look alive and well.
You may have noticed the stripes on the GT500 in "Gone in 60 seconds" too. I think a Saleen done up in those colours would look killer, and be a nice tip of the hat.
Another "rice" myth de-bunked...

There's a guy here in my town who has a Mazda Miata with racing stripes. For some reason, I think of Austin Powers when ever I see him. ------------------ P.
