Challenger 1320 vs Mustang GT vs Camaro SS
We have a new competitor in the mix. The Challenger 1320. Seats are optional and Dodge is claiming the 1320 will run 11.7 and the extra seats are optional. And it comes with the Dodge drag racing goodies. Man Dodge sure knows how to leverage this old hoss for maximum play. $46K + seats.

This looks interesting. Of course, I prefer the Hellcat or Redeye. But you can't argue how impressive this car will be.

On every forum you hear from drag racers asking for a purpose built and lightweight drag racing option... finally someone is listening.

Ah ok. That's impressive for a completely bone stock GT with nothing except boost,slicks and 4100lb race weights to run in the 9's just like any other V8 Muscle/Pony car with those same mods would do...the fact that a Mustang can do it just like everything else out there is extremely impressive.

I think it's a cool package and cool that Dodge is offering it for the 1/4 crowd. They know they don't have a corner carver, so make a straightline package.

They don't need a corner carver, their Challenger sales are just fine . A street/strip focus to track would likely hurt the present sales.

But back to the 1320 Dodge. What would it take to get this NA car that weighs as much as a mid size suv into the 9s? And I hear the 392s are delicate.

Your car is not a Camaro so it wouldn't even be on the list. |
