Hey Ed, The production version of the Challengers is no where close to the Drag-Pak version. The Drag-Pak cars will be very close to the CJ's in ET. In testing, they went 10.0's with a weaker pump gas engine than the production "race" version. The new engines will have more power. Not to mention the fact that none of the esteemed Stock car racing guru's have hade time to tune on the car. Just wait until it gets into some gifted hands, and you'll see numbers equal to that of the CJ. The other good thing about the Drag-Pak is that its being offered with two engine options. You can get the wedge and run in a lower class, or get the hemi and run higher. Racer gets to choose.
