The drive by wire throttle delay on the late models definitely make consistent launches difficult to say the least. I raced my brothers completely stock 2010 Challenger R/T (Hemi, auto) in the Street class at Monster Mopar Indy last fall the best run it did was a 13.62 at 102 mph. I made it to the Qtr finals before getting eliminated. The car ran about a half second off the dial in on the last run. I'm not sure why (wheel spin or what) but it the car ran about a half second off the dial in on the last run (But the mph was still 101). Ahh well, I thought I did pretty well for a car I hadn't driven before driving it up to Indy. I drove it there, raced and then dove it home which was fun and simple. A pic of my brother and his Challenger.
Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

Bought my wife a SRT8 Jeep and did it up with all the usual bolt on (cold air, headers, exhaust, throttle body, programmer). Fun car to drive all year round even when it is snowing up here.

I bought an 03 Cobra a few yrs ago. A "few" boltons and it has 615hp at the tire. Fun car.
^This car is one of the best foundations to start with for a modern fast car. The only downside is the independent rear for drag racing!
That sums it up perfectly. I am THOUROUGHLY ENJOYING my 03 Cobra ownership and wish I had bought it sooner- the most fun I've had in years with a car. No matter what brand you drive, it's hard to beat the newer stuff. Daty- your Chally looks perfect lowered- very nice car

Would pulling the #2 fuse do the same thing as disconnecting the battery? It clears the PCM. Curious if your car is a M6 or A5. Do you run with traction control on or off?
