With a converter and sticky tires I have gone 1.68 60' without nitrous and 1.59 with a 100 shot. This is with an auto and 3.06 gears. These cars are much faster than most people are led to believe.

Dave we need to get together at some point.
One of the guys I work with has been talking crap to the wife for several months...He has the typical winged,fart piped honduh.....She just said "Pick a day i`ll be there"
Well last tuesday was it.....needless to say it wasn`t pretty
To make matters worse she was going .040`s to his +.100`s

On the way home she commented that it wasn`t that much fun as she wanted more competition
I really wanted her to run the 6 speed SRT that was there as she had him covered by a easy tenth and change but we ran out of time.

Forget a gear change for now..go for a converter and stickies (I am)....Mine has been 2.03 stone stock so sub 2.0`s are possible with minimal mods.






I love my wife..at least she like this stuff

What #'s did both cars run ?? Thats cool the wife spanked him. Ron

I heard the new Continental DW's or something like that hook pretty well.

I'll be going out to Union Grove in a few weeks, lets see how I do.

Nice car, have fun racing. I myself just got back in my car this weekend. We got the whole family out at Norwalk racing. It is always more fun when you can get the family involved.

That is a nice car, and I love the color too.

I raced an SRT the other day. It was modified with a Procharger type supercharger, etc.; so the guy must have $50k invested in it, but it was fast.
6.80 in the 1/8th mile must be around 10.60's in the 1/4.

The only issue is the $50k is more money than I have invested in my race car, trailer, and tow vehicle combined!
With my better reaction time, I caught him early and put a fender length on him.

I ran mine again last night. Made four runs and they were all in the 8s with a best being 8.86.
The best sixty was only 2.10 so it really needs some tires. The car draws everyone in, I love the chevy guys saying how they like the srt better then the ss.
i know these cars ain't cheep but i love mine and think it was worth it. I like the fact that not everyone will spend the cash to own one.
I been eyeballing a procharger, but that will be winter time.

There is a lady at RT66 racing an SRT-8 auto. I have been next to her when she went 13:30's with it.

She used to have a Z-06 Vette. She says she likes the Challenger a lot more.

Well I ran it again fri night. I have 15 runs on it and right at 1000 miles lol. The air was bad I was told by one racer it was 3600 feet. So no new best but was dialing in the lights. Cut a .0030 and a .015 on a bracket tree. And everyone loves this car, well everyone but the guys I beat lol.
I raced a couple mustangs, I think the badest was an 08 Bullit. The camaro was dodging me lmao and for good reason. He was a mid 9 car all night.
Here's a vid racing the bullit stang
