How many of you guys own or race and Modern Muscle Car..aka New Challenger,Mustang,Camaro,Viper etc?and how do you like them?

I own a 2010 Plum Crazy Purple SRT8 Challenger 6-speed that has Mopar CAI,Corsa Exhaust,180 stat,and Predator tune that has a whopping 2900 miles on it and have never raced it but it is alot of fun to drive and gets looks and comments everywhere it goes.

I have a 2014 Shelby GT500 on order that I plan to mod before it leaves the Dealership.you can spend little money on these cars and get crazy power out of them.I wanted to get something that was alittle out of my comfort zone and learn something new.me being a Chrysler Service Technician so a Supercharged 662hp Mustang should do that!

How can you race a fly by wire throttle car? The delay on the throttle is insane...Not to mention, the body styles, and unreal weights of newer cars is just not even remotely worth it. Why would I want to start out with a 3900lb Challnger, when I can buy old muscle already set-up and way lighter for half the cost?

Lets see some time slips then. What do get for a RT? I am sure they drive nice. Rented a V6 Challenger last year, drove nice. But the throttle delay from input to actual response is horrible. Took a while to get used to it. I hate fly by wire...

Chris my pops has a srt300 06 version,very fun car and quit stout for 4000lb as it has been 12 teens.It is not consistant though and alot has to do with the 06 trans and all the modes for safety it has.The new ones have a feature the 06 doesnt and it will shift it self.As for throttle response it kinda is super super sensative and almost visciouse sometimes,just touch it a tiny bit and wow.It has a pro charger 5Lbs of boost and stainless works headers on it and we drive to atco alot with it and thats 106 mile trip 1 way. Good luck

A bone stock 392 Challenger with auto trans will run 12.70's.you can get them to run low 12's with basic stuff.The Sticks are all over the place.

These new Mustangs are running in the 9 sec range with slicks.its pretty easy to get one in the 10.50's with basic bolt ons and Drag Radials.

2009 SRT8 Challenger bone stock, 6 speed, never been to track
Grocery getter, Goes to Cracker Barrel and the Pizza shop
PAID in FULL Had it to 130 and still pulling hard before my wife started screaming 12500 miles with a on my face

i do have to say, I have been To MIR in Southern Maryland for the Mopar eastern classic. These ne body style mopars fly. I have seen the run from 12.00 to as fast as 9 seconds

I'm a Mopar Guy and I looked at the New Challenger RT, and Camaro SS But ended up buying a 2013 Mustang GT 6 Speed, still only has 1350 miles on it, also looked at the Boss Mustang, but I couldn't delete the huge stripes and didn't like 10k+ additional over the GT. on mine there is zero lag with the fly by wire throttle I just liked the size of the car and handling and the all aluminum 4 valve 420 hp Coyote engine, biggest complaint is the shifter needs to be replaced. the stock shifter really needs finesse to make the 2-3 shift, also the car is just too quiet needs some exhaust changes, tons of aftermarket parts available. my Dakota project is on hold because of this new toy.

Had a 2009 SRT-8 Challenger 6-speed ran a best of 13.24 bone stock.

Traded it for a 2004 SRT-10 Viper Convertible bone stock, never had it to the track but 75hp more and 700lbs less make for one helluva a hand full ride.

Here's mine

I drove a used 2013 Boss Mustang with 900 miles on it and it was a ton of fun! If any of you guys get a chance to drive a Boss,Shelby or even a new 5.0 do it.

The Challenger is all around a nicer everday car.more room ton of trunk space nice ride and much better interior features.

I have raced my SRT Challenger but its not my "race" car. It runs hi 7's in the 1/8 on street tires but its mostly used to pick up my little kids from school. The Procharger really helped the way the car drives.

I've raced my 2009 RT several time now best time is listed in signature. Whats fun is you can leave the track for food and return and race some more.

Frito 13.28 @ 103 best with a 5.7 at MMW Indy last fall. 13 second car and drove it 4 hours home at 26 MPG.

'02 Camaro Z28 daily driver here. I've had some other GM LS powered stuff in the past...I like em.

I have had 3 late model rides that were decent...the first was an '04 SRT Ram. I bought it new.



I traded it for a used '06 SRT Viper in '08.



I sold it in 2011 and bought the '09 SRT 8 Challenger. It has run a 13.23 @ 107 spinning with a poor 2.01 60ft. I still like the SRT Ram the most of all 3.

My '10 R/T. M6, 3.73's. Best of 13.78 @102.87. Still learning to launch it. Made about 15 passes in it last year. Street tires aired down to 25 pounds and took the air filter out.
Car is my daily driver and I'm enjoying the heck out of it. Bought a Diablosport tuner in December but obviously no input on if it helps. Colder t-stat and drop in filter for upgrades this summer. Probably some appearance and stance tweaks first.
Challengertalk has some guys on there nipping at the 11's in stock 392's on street tires ( A5 trans.)

Those SRT10 Pickup trucks are alot of fun..couldnt give me a 4door model though

I remember alot of out Chrysler reps drove those trucks because they had so many laying around unsold.We had one at our dealer that sat there for 2 months waiting for rep to pick it up.It had sat at the plant so long the window sticker was faded so bad you almost couldnt read it and it was filthy dirty.I use to take it out and knock the rust off the rotors when I was bored
