Okay. I drove past one of the VERY few Dodge dealers we have in the area yesterday. There are plenty of Challengers in stock at the moment. Don't appear to be too many moving.

That's darn cool!! Thanks for posting!

And why must so many compare cars all the time?! It's ok to like other cars, without have to compare and justify everything with the Mustang. But that is why we all have opinions I suppose . . . .

It was stated in the video that there are some "bugs" to work out of the car, but that it will do 8s. And never mind thevariables of track elevation, temperature, humidity, etc. Did you watch the video?

yes I watched and yes I co owned a 7.0 race car so i know what I am talking about.. Don't believe it untill you see it ON the dyno yourself not an internet dyno. Do *YOU* have any clue how hard it is to make 1100 hp?

Yes *I* do know how hard it is. Especially with their combination.

Also, if you have any pictures of your past 7.0 car I would love to see some pictures and learn the specs!! Always cool to see more drag cars!! Was it strickly a 1/4 car or did it see the 1/8 mile from time-to-time?
