Here is mine... interesting..you guys pick up more speed going from the 1/8th to the end of the 1/4 than I do (I am carrying more speed through the 1/8th)... do you know what the weather was like?
well...that run was at bradenton in florida...i think it was evening time....dusk-ish, probably in the 70's and fairly humid....i dont really remember, it was a few months ago when i made that run....i have since gotten down to a 13.02....yarrr
yes i am from the bay area and i get to race a lot of them stock and some lightly modded and i win hands down from a dig from a roll and at the top end.
well i ran this week end against a automatic 2012 chevy camaro SS with the L99 and i have a 2013 charger r/t with the paddle shifters and sport mode button not sure how much faster that is compared to a regular r/t but the 4 times i ran against him and right off the launch i took him after that he was at my rear bumper the whole 1/4 mile never even creeped up nothing just sat by my bumper the whole way down
Interesting that you won..the Camaro SS makes 426 hp and is much lighter than our chargers. Sounds like you were just a better driver than he was! None the less, I'm sure he was embarrassed so that's a win all day long! Or it could have been an RS or an up badger..
well at launch i always got him and i have just the wheels and tunes package nothing much else nobody at the track believed my car was stock and i bearly have 1567 miles on it and was my first time at the track. though i think the climate played a part also it was 87F and 80% humidity so i still cant believe he never beat me or caught up
yeah im going to hopefully soon before any mods and right after diablo comes out with theire tune ima run it with the tune.. but i also think dodge was being conservative with the numbers they put out cause for being a heavy a$$ car it moves at a very very good pace IMO
Agree, From my experience racing the SS's with the Stang last year, the auto's were the quickest from 0-60, and the 6 speed SS's were better in the 1/4 mile. Put an Auto SS against the 6 speed and the auto will take the 1/8th but the standard always pulled away by the 1/4. (Just from what I have seen)
IMO, the new R/T Charger's, with a good tune, CAI and Headers with HF Mid's, would give the stock SS auto a good run. (Would have to take out the spare tire, LOL)
