And just think. When I was 16 I didn't even know what a Mopar was. By 23 I had owned 4. Now at 42 I've been blessed to have had several nice Mopar race cars. If I didn't love racing I'd have me a '71 Hemi Cuda clone in pro touring style! And I'll never own anything but a Mopar, best cars ever.

Marty, I've enjoyed watching all of your cars come together. From the lime green Road Runner, to the 67 Coronet and the sweet Duster. The Duster was my favorite, but the Challenger is absolutely amazing. Best of luck with the new ride, and looking forward to hearing the track results

Congrats on the outing, four passes on new combo and hitting .60 flat. Car is going to be fast!

Posted By: W8n2DustU

Re: X275 Challenger getting ready! - 03/30/15 04:56 AM

Thanks! It has a lot left. Still haven't put any timing to it really. We put 2* in it on that pass. Before it didn't have any timing marks on the plugs. Kolivas and Bennett are trying to learn a platform they've never seen. They are both real pleased. Air was bad today. Also converter has to be reworked! Said there is a .4X in it in great air on a good track. I'm real pleased to have it go that fast with only 4 hits.

Come on up to Huntsville in a month. If the weather is good it should be a fast track, as usual.

You are getting pretty close to the top ten badazz list for legal X275.

Congrats!! Nice hotrod IMO.

Car will be at Huntseville I'm pretty sure. I'll be driving it at Hollysprings and Darren at Huntseville since I can't make it there. Then I'll run Tulsa, Denton, and SGMP!

Re: X275 Challenger getting ready! - 03/31/15 04:35 PM

Cool, I will look for it. I am trying my best to get my KOS Demon in the KOS race they will have but the darn little details and parts that don't fit are driving me crazy.

IF the weather is any good they should have the track working. We're coming up on 'nadr season so be weather aware.
