My Neighbor Thinks His Scat Pack Challenger is a Race Car
He saw the damage to my car and asked me about my accident. Then he proceeded to tell me about when he ran over a curb in a parking lot which damaged the underside of his race car. I chuckled, but didn't challenge him on it. Then I told him my car was a race car and he laughed. He has no clue about Gen6 Camaro's, much less what a 1LE is.

Seems like all the Charger and Challenger owners think their cars are race cars especially the V8 models.

I think race car to most people just means they can smash the gas every red light

I'm sure many Civic Type-R owners consider theirs a race car, too.

Ours isn't 20y old but it is also somewhat heavy and sedan'y... Camaro looks bigger than CT5-V Blackwing when side by side

I know. Agree with you. And it weighs something like 4,200 lbs.

We usually have someone running one of those Challengers at our autocross series. 4 to 6 seconds off the pace.
