Re: Question about Challenger 1320
As a point of reference, the 2013 Challenger RT is listed as a traditional Stocker with a shipping weight of 3,600 lbs. as per the guide and the 392 cu.in. engine is factored @ 380 h.p.
This combo does appear to have the 85 % rule applied for the shippiing weight ( 4,235 lbs. x .85 = 3600 )
The 15-17 Hellcats are listed at 4,500 lbs and factored at 600 h.p....also a traditional Stocker.
NHRA applied the 85 % rule on the Hellcat h.p. ( 707 x .85 = 600 hp)
However, they did not apply the 85 % rule to the Hellcat's shipping weight.
If they had, the new shipping weight would have been 3,825 lbs. and the HC would be a 6.375 lb./hp combo
