Finishing up watchin the Drag Week live stream from Friday today and noticed a Moparty sticker on the windshield of an '87 Charger GLHS. Looks like he ran last year and was .5 seconds behind you in the AutoX, but based on his Drag Week average this year of 11.8770 would have been .85 faster than your time last year had he made a drag strip run.
There was also a Neon SRT4 at Drag Week that ran a best of
11.580@112.59. Plus a couple of Horizon's that averaged mid 10's.
Not arguing that most FWD cars get donkey stomped at the strip, just pointing out that I wouldn't sleep on all of them or you might get surprised.
Have to admit, I'm impressed with the performance of the SRT4 that was there the last two years. Looking at last years results, he was faster on the AutoX, equaled you on the 3S and got donkey stopped at the strip. Only have AutoX time so far from this year and it looks like a virtual tie there. If that car had the Drag Week engine package, I wonder how it would have done. Apples to oranges, either way.
Different classes, not a point on handling, just an observation about FWD Mopars.
