I know what kind of slick to use on my race car, But not sure what to use on my 2010 Challenger SRT Hurst Edition, with a Kenne Bell Blower, Automatic. Car has 508 horse power at the wheels. 20" rims x 10" wide. Either Nitto NT555R, or Mickey Thompson 3737R.

I was looking at 2 different drag radials.

I'm going with the M/T but I hear that the 20" wheel kills any solid bite.

Mine makes about the same as yours and 275 BFG'S are not good.

The MT's get a better grip but dont last long. Usually 5000 miles for me driving on the street.


It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.

What kind of boost are you putting into your Hurst Challenger? Is that a 2.8L blower? Those things can crank out some serious boost

I put the Mickey Thompsons on it. I ran it 4 passes at the track, about 8 passes on the street. They hook up great, even on the street.

I could use lower gears, converter change, valve body . But this is my street toy, the Dartsport is for racing. For now I am going to leave it the way it is.

The Kenne Belle blower should be pushing 6 or 7 psi. I may try a smaller pulley next spring.

It ran 12.432, 12.433, 12.523, and 12.492. All passes were 114 mph. Car weighs 4340 pounds with me. 60 foot times, 1.89 and 1.90 .

I like the Cuda' look thumbs Cool looking SRT!

You have about 1 sec on my Jeep. I only ran it once and it did a best of 8.66 @ 79 mph in the 1/8.

My bone stock Charger 6.4L went 1.91 / 12.91 / 111mph on the stock 245 F1's

IIRC 6.1's with that blower were running in the 11's

You might want to get someone to check the tune, try Mike @ OST Dyno (member here) they can do it over e-mail if you have a Diablo hand held tuner.
