New Challenger

[Pat]

Has anyone raced a new Dodge Challenger either on the strip or a private road? :burn:

In my neck of the woods I'm seeing new Challengers on every road. The only dealer here has a whole line of them for sale.

At my last outting on the drag strip, with my car running poorly, I bested the time of the lone Challenger there.

We didn't actually race each other, just compared time slips. :up:

Just wondering. At some point I will challenge a Challenger.

Regards, :nos:

My son and I received matching Black on Orange SRT8 Dodge Challengers for Christmas. :up: What a great present from my wife.

My friend bought an '08 in Aug., a few weeks later we went on a cruise to city center, from 60 to 100 he led me by a fender, thats not bad, (I'm stock, and he's 425 hp Hemi.)

Was it a SRT/8 or a R/T? Now that I know this, Ill be happy to take one of these on.

Paul I've seen SRT/8's run 13's

[DOOM]

I have also seen HEAVILY MODIFIED chargers run mid to low 12's those were R/T's

The SRT-8 manual transmission will run 13.6 in cold air and high 13 thirteens to low 14's in the summer. The automatic version will slow the car down by .6 to .8 tenths in the quarter mile.

Do you mean the R/T with the manual? I thought the SRT/8 only came with that autostick automatic.

My brother has an SRT/8 Charger, and we ran for a couple of blocks. He couldnt pull away from me i was with him every step of the way. Its gonna be a hot summer and these Dodge boys will be challeging us at every stop light, drag strip.... where ever. EVeryone was trying to get me to buy a Charger or Challenger last summer, I made the right choice!!!! Marauders fo life!!!!!

Go to the 09 Challenger website and custom build your SRT-8. It has a 6 speed manual option.

On the SRT-8 versions, the manual transmission adds just $695 - far less than the $1,700 gas guzzler tax, which is partly subsidized by dealers.

Saw the full deal R/T part in Walmart parking lot yesterday. Lo and behold it was it was being loaded with goodies as i was coming out the door. In all the madness and rain did get to talk to him much, but did get a look inside.

Today i saw a black one with orange rim ring on the way to mom's house for Christmas. Looks like they are going to be as prolific as the Chargers. Starting to see more and more of them.

Within the past couple of days Ive seen my first Challengers on the street, both good looking R/T's.

SRT8 gave me thumbs up in the Marauder....

couple of R/Ts in town... I really like them but not worth the coin.
