Well I have no clue ..Problem is the DA sucks right now in FL , 80s and high humidity ..Mine has the rear seat delete and curb weight is said to be 4200 pounds ..Drag racing from 1971 to 2019 in all kinds of race cars and bikes I have a pretty good butt dyno and I can tell you this 1320 runs very strong car ..In drag mode the trans shifts very very quick and very hard, it makes the stock a8 in the Camaro trans feel like and old sloppy power glide ..Throttle is very touchy in any mode were as the Camaro throttle felt mushy.. The car handles very well with 275 Drag Radials on all for corners .. The car doesn't feel heavy but we all know it is ...Now I don't road race so I can talk about that but for me it's just fine ..Hell the only turn I make is at the end of the tack to get onto the return road lol The car has way more options than my 1SS has and the SS had way more options than my 2015 Mustang had .. Still the price for all that wasn't bad .. Sticker was 46k+ and I got them down to 42,388 .. They tell me the cars will be limited numbers being built and so far not selling well because a lot of people just don't know about the car ..I don't think you are going to see a lot of them on the street or the drag strip for that matter ..Mine was on the lot for 4 weeks before I got it and the dealer ( pretty large dealership ) is not going to order any more of them ..I have been asked 10 times so far from car guys " what is that the 1320 emblem mean on the car ? " did you put that on the car ? .. Really I have to tell drag racers what 1320 means ?
I can't wait to see how these cars run at the track. Post some pictures.

I had this very same argument with a GT 500 drag strip car owner. He began telling me his car mod for mod was faster than comparable Camaros but finally admitted he had over $10,000 in mods compared to simple bolt on Camaros. He brought his slicks car (not drag radials) to the strip on a trailer and truly believed that Chevy guys were going to believe his claim for minor modifications. This argument will go on for as long as they let you personally pilot a private automobile. Take your car to the drag strip and run against some of these cars, then you can wear the bragging rights or go home with your tail between your legs.

I'm sure from his post that his plan it to take it to the track, as he did mention that he needed to get 500 miles on the car to unlock the PCM. What are you a bit butt hurt by his initial observations in having his car for only a couple days.

Also he is talking about a factory built Challenger with no additional money spent on upgrading it that comes with Drag radials from the factory so where were you going with your post of money spent on upgrading.

Well I did take to the 1/8 mile track tonight ..I didn't have the 500 miles needed to turn on the trans brake and line lock but it run really strong .. Heading to the 1/4 track Thursday and see what the 1/4 mile numbers look like .. sorry their printer at the track is just about out of ink .. I just foot braked it to 1500 and punch it .. That 7.45 @ 93 should get me the 11.70 dodge said it would , maybe faster .. I wonder how much the trans brake will add once I get the 500 miles on the car .. One thing for sure it's faster than my Camaro with drag radials .. Don't get butt hurt , I still love the Camaro and always will ..

Congrats man! Sounds like that thing is a beast for the track! I love the videos posted below your post. Looks like the trans brake makes launches foolproof. Might get more folks into the sport too, which is always a good thing.

I look forward to seeing what you do on the 1/4 mile track. Good Luck, and keep the shiny side up!!!
