2008 Challenger tested by Motortrend
Sorry not true..it takes a combination of parts and the knowledge to know how to make all those parts work together to get a car from point "a "to point "b"in the fastest time,some guys know how to some don't...
And your machinist and builder did quite well. What did you do other than pay 'em? Big deal, you got a fat wallet.:snakeman: You would have been my perfect customer 15 years ago except most of my customers
listened. You can't compare the new Challenger to a strip only car. My goodness man, it leaves @ 1800 rpm in
Drive and has USB interface for your mp3 player for crying out loud.
Yes, I can
build my Duster to pull a 10 sec 1/4 mile for less than you paid to have someone else do the dirty work for you, and a lot less than the new Challenger cost, but dude! It stops, it turns, it's too quiet inside and has every do dad you'd ever want. 4.7 sec to 60 mph in drive, brother! Full interior too! Not too long ago someone posted pictures from a car show that had a 'Cuda with a full interior and a freakin' parachute. That's cool.
Now can you lighten up a bit and quit being so negative? Can you add something to this forum that can truly help, or at least make someone feel good about what they can afford? I'm barely making the new house payment until the future wife pulls her head out her *** and gets her **** together and I'm sure that there's many of out here with a buttload of "
real engine building and restoration experience" but are just f'kd for some reason or other, weather it be age, divorce, new baby or whatever.
Just think about this for a minute or two for Pete's sake.
Thank you,
