Very nice..... I'm getting new shoes put on the back of Fatbitch today, hopefully I can pull some 1.7-1.8 60 ft's.... I'll probably break something else....

 

[Guest]

If you ONLY pull a 1.7 short, im gonna drive to TX, rip yer azz out that seat and drive it myself and pull a 1.4 !!!

Worry about breaking later, BEAT THAT BAMMA !!! Assuming your getting slicks, rev er to 6500, say a prayer, and pop that clutch like you stepped on a nail at 3am on your way to the bathroom.

Nah, I got street shoes... I don't have the 300M Billet c.v.'s yet or subframe connectors (even though I stair at them every friggin' day...) I will eventually. I figure a 1.7 on d.r.'s is good.

 

[Guest]

YES, that is good, once or twice. :-D

Has anyone figured out how to remove weight from these cars yet? it cant weigh 3800lbs just based on the body itself. There HAS to be some form of weight added that can be removed.

 

[HTRDLNCN]

I actually weighed in at 3670 with a full tank,, I had to add 130lbs of ballast to make the 3800lb cutoff.
I have removed the spare tire and assorted crap,fuel tank cage,hood padding,plastic things over valve covers, and replaced skid plate with BMR, also my rims weigh about 5lbs less each (20lb total)
however I also added the driveshaft loop and the xpipe which combined added like 15lbs.

350hp vs 340hp
3800lbs vs 4200lbs
$32k vs $32k

seems fair to me..

[Guest]

well, he did! Maybe HE should invest in the nitrous kit. lol

 

[slonlo_350]

Man I need some sticky tires... and an auto haha. The 6 speed was just too much fun to pass up though. But 12.9 at 103 makes me reconsider. I went a 1.8 in my truck one time... that was a FUN launch, and 1.7 has to be awesome! Time to build the rear and get some ET Street Radials!!

Great times.

As for the Charger... poop! I can't wait until my friend's SRT-8 comes in. That'll be a fun day.

not a guy..

BECG stands for brown eyed country girl ,she drove over from texas,

readily apparent to anyone who saw her talking on the cellphone while smoking
a cig and yelling at the starting line guy for calling her car a rental..

this is her and the funny looking guy is me at the scariest backwoods bar in commerce,luckily we had a big group or it could have gotten ugly(as ugly as most the women there),LOL..

 

[Guest]

WHOA! Hook me up with HER email !!!!!!!!! Texas girls, I tell ya !!!!!

 

[GTODEALER]

She's not so bad.... :cheers
