Could you maybe ask someone important there with Mopar when the SRT will return on the Charger?
There's no mention of it or pix for '11.

Sorry but I couldn't find anyone in the Mopar booth until today who was "someone important" to get your question answered. Heather is a Product Specialist. She said that there is still no official word on any SRT models except Challenger for 2011.

And since you're asking about the SRT Charger, how about asking if theres gonna be a manual trans version Charger available.
I also posed this question to Heather and the answer was again, there's no official word on a manual trans Charger. She also said that they are very well aware of the demand for such a car. So it sounds positive but I guess we'll have to keep waiting.
On more thing I was told about today. Heather and a coworker are going to embark on a US tour with a pair of Challengers (SRTs, I believe) with stops in 20+ cities. It begins on November 14. As soon as they send me more details about the tour as well as the dates and locations, I'll pass it along. That's all I know at this point.

No coverage of the 24hr. of LEMONS - "CHRISTINE"?
My first thought was I would be reading an article about the car in a future issue of Mopar Collectors Guide.

With the underpinnings of that "Christine" being a BMW why WOULD there be coverage?

Were there any A-bodies there? 
The Mr. Norm's '68 Dart and the S&M '68 Barracuda are the only ones I can think of. Anyone else???
There really wasn't much at all in the way of classic Mopar muscle this year. This would've been a good year for someone to debut a really over the top Mopar. Frankencuda was pretty over the top but it's already been in magazines and pretty well made all the rounds.
Lots of cool Jeeps, 4x4s, exotics, tuners and new Mustangs/Challengers/Camaros. Ford really dominated this year and they were clearly the main sponsor. Oh, and I saw about a dozen different versions of Camaros turned Firebird.
