The SRT8 Challengers are supposed touse the antilock braking system somehow as a LSD. Its all computer controlled. I read about it somewhere a couple of months ago. The 2009's with manual trans are supposed to have limited slips.

The backup light in the middle of the tailights is supposed to look like a 1970 Challenger.

Yes. They have been cruising around the metro Detroit area for a while...just saw my 6th? one yesterday. It was a black one, and it sounded really nice although I wish the driver would have gotten on it a lot harder...[&o]

Well it doesn't! If they had of made it split the tail lights like the 1970 picture, then it'd have looked better.

I welcome all challengers. I can't wait to smack one of those down!

I like the looks, but they really screwed the pooch with that back up light in the middle of the tail lights
Have you run your car down the 1/4 yet?

Yes. He ran a 12.5 @ 117 with a crappy 60ft.

Me too. Only because the majority of the first buyers will be asshats and deserve a little bit of humility.

You do know Mr. Cocky, that is his 60ft was not higher then 2.2 and it was instead a 1.8, he'd run a high 11 and trap 119+?
