Who said LT1's cant run?!! Those things are tq monsters!! And those time are right on par with h/c ls1 f bodies. Bad ass!

I bet your right then on the TM thing. I mean I know its heavy but if they are running mid 12`s thats sad. I ran consistent 12.2`s w/ just headers, CAI and a tune, stock tires no weight reduction in my SS.

Haha! LT1`s are really hard to make run quick though w/ the 23 degree heads. It takes a really good patient porter to do a set of LT1 heads, you can`t just hog em out like LS1`s(somewhat of an exaggeration here) or they lose velocity real bad. My LT1 was slow stock 14.2@98mph bone stock.

I`m really impressed w/ that Charger of yours though, now that is a HEAVY car! We have a guy named Mike in this area who has DTP working on his car and now that biotch runs its ass off! Blue Charger runs 9.x I forget what exactly but i think its low 9`s.

For those in the know: how would the track pack effect performance? Is it needed to get the times currently being released? And for the average driver, is the track pack a necessity?

Damn! what did i miss? Wait..... Nevermind...:emoticon7:

Oh yea!! Hes well known in our community. Runs stock displacement,F1, and a hit of nitrous. Car has been a best of 9.0@15X mph @ 4400lbs. Its beastly for sure!!

Im currently the cam only record holder for the Hemi's. I know with a couple more bolt ons and some weight reduction I could get her to low low 11's maybe even a 10.9999999. lol

Not bad!! And it looks as tho it was on street tires.

For those in the know: how would the track pack effect performance? Is it needed to get the times currently being released? And for the average driver, is the track pack a necessity? ( of course referring to the GT500)

The track pack does NOTHING for performance at the dragstrip.

Okay. So what does it offer in the way of performance?

Still some amazing pictures...but no references to other sites...

All the track pack is, is external oil coolers for the trans, rear diff and engine oil.

I understand it also changes tires, gearing, and suspension. Wouldn't all this effect performance?
