OH Brother....Anyone on here wanting to sell their AA/SA cars cheap before this thing hits the track? And I mean real cheap ! Im ready to buy now before the mad rush. I figure the value of a nice Camaro or Corvette with a 427 will go down at least $20,000 to $30,000 once it hits the NHRA races.....LOL. IHRA here I come.

Yes Bob, I agree that this V10 Challenger definitely looks like a SS/GT car. I sure hope NHRA sees what we and others see. Anybody else agree ?

YES ! Looks more like a Comp. car to me. AA/FX/Altered/A unblown/FI with about a 9 flat index should do it.

Just because you can get it race ready for AA/SA does not make it a SS car

It does not have the following allowed SS modifications -
any intake
any head modifications
any manifold
any pistons and compression
trans-brake
14" tire

It does have (like any stocker is allowed) -
a roll cage
a 9" tire
good shocks
fuel cell in trunk
accessory equipment removed (heater, sound deadener, etc.)
legal replacement of IRS


And all for only a hundred grand - I am sure there are current AA cars that have that much in them


:-) peace

Call it what you want, people are not blind, so its a AA/SA, first hit it get weight second hit it goes right to SS where it belongs in the first place. What a waste of money.

You are correct, it doesn't have certain items that are allowed in SS.
-However it does have a "built in roll control" (could that be considered a 4 wheel line loc, or an actual trans-brake?)

-It does have a 11 qt oil pan. "Designed specifically for Drag Pack" http://www.mopar.com/dragpak/pdf/dra...spec_sheet.pdf

Neat piece, just doesn't belong in stock. However I have said that several times, and so have many others. I am not bashing the people getting the vehicles, just the association that is allowing them to compete on the same playing field as the other cars. Yes, there have been people that have spent the same amount to purchase this car, on their car that they race in the same class. You do not see them out running the fastest cars in the nation by over .4 tenths
