Default Challenger not a challenge at all

So 2 nights ago I'm on the 91 and I see Challenger tailights ahead. I get next to him and its a black S R T. We took off and I pulled a car and a half in 4th, then I mishift 5th.When I get it in 5th he's next to me and I pull 3 cars then he slams the brakes and exits...LOL LT1 FTW

A kill is a kill. Way to go LT1! Even with all of the stuff done to my car, I still get hell from many F-Bod guys with LSx's.

At 4100+ pounds, that car's going to be a pig. Probably comes with a conservative final drive so it doesn't scare off buyers with pitifull fuel economy.

I've been intrigued by some of these newer cars, but I always come back to appreciating my '02 Formula because it's so much lighter.

NOT impossible. Challenger= ~4100lbs/~370 to the street
Camaro= ~3700lbs/~300 to the street
With a good driver (which ttop is) its a good race. Id pull for the LT1. I dont know why everyones hanging off the nuts of the srt.
