Default Beat a 2010 Challenger R/T more than once.. at the track.

Had a blast,still no 12's I ran a best of 13.031 at 105.95 with a 2.008 60ft into a stiff headwind.

The Challenger was a 2010 R/T 375HP A5 with LT Headers,CAI,Tuning and MT DR's "Driver Sam".

The TA a 1999 W/122,000 miles A4, LT Headers, CAI,Tune and Free Mods W/Hoosier DR's "Driver Me".

We were both chasing 12's today and I beat him 4 out of 5 runs,he is a really cool guy.

Best slip side by side 12:30 pm "Winner Me"

Sam LL Me RL
RT .374 .166

60ft 1.933 2.008

330ft 5.398 5.522

1/8 8.346 8.415

mph 83.83 85.84

1000ft 10.871 10.903

1/4 13.001 13.031

mph105.83 105.95


He was so close,the wind picked up more and we both couldn't get it done.

We are going to have a friendly grudge match on Victoria Day.

Depending on the gears your car has, the drag radials may actually make you slower.

When my old Z28 had bolt ons and 2.73 gears, I added MT drag radials and went slower because they were TOO sticky and the car couldn't break loose.

I have the 3.23's.

I want a Yank 3600 stall but I should get the tranny done at the same time and I don't have $3,000.00 to blow on that right now.
