> well they uped the HP in the 5.7 35 which aint bad, but that isnt a one wheel burnout up there is it? because that would just be gay
4th pic up from the bottom shows a 2 wheel burn out
2nd pic up from the bottom LOOKS like a one wheel peel at first glance, till you realize the car is going totaly sideways, so the smoke from the pass side wheel is going under the car

The Charger SRT8 runs @ low thirteens and weighs 200 lbs more with the same trans and gearing, so a similar time should be attainable.
Regardless, it’s about 800lbs. over what it could be…

I took this pic at the Chicago Auto Show last year, maybe the year before I can’t remember. The concept car wheels were so cool, too bad they didn’t make it.
