Default I beat a Charger.

Well last night I went a little wild.

I was sitting at a red light, no cars in sight. The new Dodge Charger pulls up right next to me and starts revving his engine. It was on. We both had a good start, I could not tell if he had an auto or man. Once we hit second I shot straight forward. He wasn't close, he was keeping up, a car length behind me.

I'm guessing this was the model with the smaller 250hp engine. I still was kinda shocked considering my vehicle is stock except for my GT Takeoff muffler. I've had cheap dodge trucks blow me away, so I was kind of expecting him to beat me with a stock engine against my nearly stock mustang.

The don't come in manuals, they come in "shiftable" auto transmissions.

Good kill!

our second gear is really strong, typically we will pull some on any car once we hit second gear

gears like 3:73's or 4:10's really give us an advantage for 3rd gear

Are you are talking 1960s?

Because the current models only come in sedans.

The Dodge Charger is available as a sedan only in one of two trim levels -- base SE and R/T.
