I'm in downsize mode now, gonna unload wife's 09 Aspen for a 12 200S to cut costs and allow more breathing room for the Dart. Mopar to the bone!!!

I'm building my Duster from the ground up so it will keep me busy for quite some time, hope to be driving it in a few weeks! Hellcats are cool but I can't help but think of the amazing car that I could build with that kind of money. $$$

BUT you could build a 392 hemi challenger with a pro charger for way less and it would have more HP. I drove a yellow jacket with a 392 and a pro charger and it was sick! a little sluggish with drag radials and the factory 3.06 rear gears ,but with a converter and a set of 3.91s a solid low 11 or high ten second car with A/C,leather and a wailing stereo! But I sold my SRT challenger and am now back to working on my dart.I think that high horsepower should be jerky,scary and out of control. Having a ton of HP in my daily driver was a little too tempting for me most of the time.I will most likely get another ,but it will be after my dart is done.

I am moving towards an alternative ( after drag racing for over 40 years ). Gonna be building a 33 Plymouth coupe street rod with a 360 / 727. It will fill my needs to build / turn a wrench and it will be fully streetable( heat, A/C, wipers, tunes, etc ) and should run mid 12's if / when the itch needs scratching. Looking forward to it. Guess I will be jumping between this and the street rod forum. Fastest 300

We are pretty lucky, Quaker City, Norwalk, National Trails, Thompson, Magnolia and Pacemaker are all w/in 30 min to 2hrs away. If 42 gets done we will have a 7th track to race at. Would be sad to see any close. Ok

In fact, I've heard rumor they will be pushing the 4-digit mark by 2020.... I say hold on to your money because it's a never ending battle chasing the hottest cars 73 Duster 360 stroker http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2594657
