Anyways, cool vids. I hope their are more in the future!
there will be more videos! and yeah but i spend about $10/day in gas, so thats like $.30 day i save in gas. it adds up. ill be switching to the 92 octane tune though when spring comes around.

remember this guy had an intake and exhaust, so was making a little more than a stock charger. but thanks

you must have been going through the geard pretty easy lol
his car has an intake and exhaust. id expect it to run mid 13s in the 1/4.

he was late. i told him we would go when i said 3 and i said "1, 2, 3". BUT i launched and spun and he didnt spin, so it made it actually a pretty even start.

Idk if it would run mid 13s, not judging by how bad you beat him. Your a low 13 second car, and you had a good bit of ground on him. I'd say he should be good for a high 13 though... just guessing/bench racing.

I always thought those year r/t chargers were mid 14 sec cars. Meh, but yeah.

i looked in some forums and most guys run high 13s/low 14s depending on the DA. several guys were running low 14s with 2000+ DAs bone stock. some guy ran a 13.6 stock, but thats supposed to be a "factory freak" lol.

hate to break it to you but an intake and exhaust isn't really going to do a hell of a whole lot without a tune

stock these cars were hard pressed for even high 13's at the strip due to their lazy gearing and weight... and I wouldn't expect him to be making much more than stock without a tune governing the increased airflow/backpressure

an older R/T was a low-mid 14 second car on average but they ended up hitting high 13's now and again

^^ any ideas what the 2011 AWD RTs will run?

Great looking rides imo.. I want one

May not be the fastest around, but that 5.7, AWD would be a dream to get around in up here during our long *** winters...

an AWD R/T will more than likely be slower than the RWD version due to weight and drivetrain loss.... because you can't really take any advantage of an AWD launch with the automatic transmission they have, you gotta remember, half the reason why sporty AWD cars are so quick (subaru/evo) is because they bring their revs up to however high they want and have the transmission that can take it... the automatic 5 speed these cars are going to have will not have this luxury and I DOUBT they will be built to handle crazy launches on a hiked up aftermarket stall either
