My buddy has one of the fastest Challengers in the world. He ran a 200.9 at the Mojave mile. Absolutely insane.

Here's the car. He recently ditched the KB s/c for a twin turbo setup. Right now it's sitting at some pretty serious #s but I can't disclose yet @ragingclue

You don't buy this car with superior handling or agility in mind; you buy it because it's batshit crazy and you want lurid burnouts and in-gear acceleration. It also looks and sounds incredible and would make for a fantastic boulevard cruiser. Emotion > logic in this scenario, which is completely understandable.

Still faster than a '13 GT500 and way faster than a ZL1. |

I'm pretty intrigued by the Scat Pack R/T which will incorporate the 392 Hemi from the SRT into the R/T.

Yup, not my style at all. But I get why some would be into it. 707hp from factory for $60k with a warranty, is just crazy.

Yeah good point. I meant won't be able to hit 10s on stock tires. But I love eating my own words! Can't wait till owners take delivery, a 10.9 with a slight tail wind and the right conditions isn't entirely unreasonable on stock tires I suppose.

They'll go faster than 10.9, more like 10.7.
And the R/T with the Scat Pack is going to be something crazy to watch for. Under $40k for that is crazy. What will be the point of buying an actual SRT8? Save yourself $5k+ and get the Scat Pack on the R/T. |

Too many design houses forgetting this ATM. I don't give a flying fuck how fast my car is around the ring in stock form and I don't want to bench race against strangers on the Internet. I want to enjoy the hell out of it when I'm in the driver's seat. That's it.

So when exactly did 875 HP become 1000 HP? Round up much?
Totally in on the emotion>logic concept though. When I buy a car it is totally all about how it makes me FEEL. I don't care much about numbers as long as advertising matches reality.

Though I think i would spend the extra 7k and get the SRT 392 for the suspension, brakes, hood, seats and sound...lot of goodies there. Especially to stop this land boat. Quote:

I don't care if my car is a few tenths - or shit, even a couple of seconds - faster or slower than its direct competition in a straight line or around a track; I care about how it looks, how it sounds, and ultimately how it drives. I can't recall a time where I unzipped my pants and laid out my dick at the base of a stoplight to see if it stacks up to the guy next to me. I do recall my memorable drives, those "moments" where everything clicks while you're connecting the dots from apex to apex. Most performance cars are varying shades of stupid-fast nowadays. What makes a modern car stand out is how well it goes about being fast.
