I had one yesterday do everything he could do to get up next to me, then when he did, he changed his mind, I guess?

Saw the Charger test drive on Speed Channel.The base Hemi Charger went 15's.
The E/T for the R/T Hemi Charger was cut out of screen view.
The R/T from what I've read runs high 13's with 355's.But well see real soon as stated above .
Post those Hemi kills .
Vids would be nice.

The 425 HP Charger SRT-8 does the 1/4 in 13.1 @ 109. Not too bad for a brick with wheels.

I want to hurt my self when I say this, but I kinda like the SRT-8

I'm sure there are plenty of folks on this site that would help you hurt yourself.

I happen the think the charger looks great and could care less if it has four doors. Too bad I don't have unlimited income.

Weight per HP are these cars even in the same NHRA class? If so what other cars are in this same class?
George what class do they put you in?
Thanks

The Charge SRT 8 is so ugly who cares what it runs. It looks MUCH nicer in 300C SRT 8 trim...

I think all the American Automobile Company,s should do what Ford has done with the mustang, So we can go back to roots style racing like way back in the begining.Camaro,s that look like the 67-69 era. Dodges(two door cars-What were they thinking)That look like chargers and Pontiac GTO,s that dont look like Toyota,s

I thought the Charger looked like crap in the pictures. Then a I saw a black R/T this weekend and it totally changed my opinion. The car looks mean for a four door. If I had kids then this would be the car for me.

I have to agree. I'm not a Mopar guy, but not anti Mopar either. And if I had kids and a family that needed the space the Charger does seem pretty cool. Luckily I'm 23 and single and wouldn't begin to trade my GT for anything Mopar sells with a Hemi.

i REALLY like the charger, most people think its a really bad interpratation of a classic, i think it kicks hiney! i cant wait to see the challenger version


oh and for the record, i think the 300C looks like something a sick dog crapped up, in comparison to the charger

The guy that works at the store next to me has a Hemi Charger and we raced the other day to about 80 mph. I beat him but he was at back fender. I spun some at first and he actually pulled about 5 feet ahead of me. He went to the track a couple of days ago and ran a 9.2 1/8th mile at 76 mph. I'm guessing that would put me in the 9 second range.

My friend has a Neon SRT-4 and ran a 8.8 in the 1/8th a week ago. I beat him really bad when we raced a few months ago to 100 mph but he's added a boost controller and a few other things. He wants to race again but I'm thinking maybe I should wait until I get a tune and cai.
