    Thanks for the reply. I had always used regular racing slicks before as years ago it was a track only car, but this being a duel purpose car and there are so many manufactures to choose from has me a little confused. My track only car I always ran Mickeys and when I and the sport, I put a used...

    So thought I would post recommendations on a duel purpose car as far as rear tires for street and race at the track occasionally as durability and traction both on and off the track ?

    That sounds like a good time. Racing with friends then bench racing afterwards !

    Just got off the phone with a friend of mine and he agreed, that speed costs money as he is building a bigger motor for next year, non Mopar, but it doesn't matter what one runs, to my thinking they all cost money and I don't care if one runs a Renault as long as we are friends and support each...

    Agree with your 2 posts, I have discovered this as well, over the years. It's fun to go fast, but constancy wins out and keeping it simple mostly allows you to be there every week, when your running for points. I just considered running once the mood strikes me, being at a track every week...

    Thanks for the encouraging words ! I had a dart sport in HS actually two, both 75's.Thinking of just doing this with the dart, I figure the only thing that would concern me is a breakage at the track and getting it and me home. One track is like 40 miles or so, the other is like 30. I have read...

    That's kind of why I went to a modern muscle car, many years of turning wrenches has caught up to me. I will be 57 later this year and most forgot more than I can remember , LOL ! Not to mention other physical factors. Last season I just spectated when I did go. I got into motorcycles more than...

    I agree, it's nice having a modern type of muscle car and my wife and I enjoy the challenger, we took it on a date night the other Friday night, The sound, tunes brought me back to funner days. I was kind of flabbergasted that I had to replace stuff just to have some fun now and then. I had to...

    My swinger years ago ran normaly low 12's and was basically a stock rebuild as I kept it simple so I know exactly what you mean. I mostly got the headstart and as long as I cut a light and that car was very consistant, was second in points yearsago and only 20 points from being number 1. Even...

    Well, since its still a numbers matching car I had shortshifted it at 4k and it ran low to mid 15's in the qrter, but I know if I raise the shift the shift points it would go faster. Butall stock right down to the manifolds, 360.

    I took the dart off the road about two years ago and just trailered it, so cost wise I could put antique tags on it and insurance in case anything should happen going to and from the track, but once there, nothing and keep the challenger as a daily when needed. The dart is slower than my swinger...

    I figured to step up to a modern day mopar muscle car and purchased a 2010 challenger ,but still have my dart sport that I run occasionally totally stock and slow. I had upgraded about two years ago to a 8/34 rear diff with a rebuilt 742 3.55 rear. did it as a duel purpose car street/ strip...
