The ZR1 has a rear shock that allows the car to squat on launch without abrupt rebound. This appears to have been done to facilitate traction in quarter mile and shorter races/sprints. Any chance that this type of shock could be offered as an option on the Viper or does it also require some nannytech to im plement it properly?

The package is more than shocks as you assumed. The viper does not have the ancillary electronics to properly implement a "nanny-tech" launch control system. The ZR1 shocks are controlled by running electrical current through a "rheo-magnetic" fluid.
