Wow... c'mon... your times are wildly optimistic... a 4140 lb car with 375 hp on stock tires runs 13.9 to 14.2 range at 100 to 102 on a good day.... MANY, MANY tests have shown this, just google it. Your 13.6 at 106 is one anonymous time listed on dragtimes.com with no proof or real description. this car would need another 35 to 40 horsepower to run those numbers.

One guy on YouTube during one raceday repeats regular 13,4-13,6 with his stock RT 6 speed manual!

Right, however this is 345 cubic inches, what gives 5654cm³, so a little bit closer to 5.7 which stands on the engine cover.

I did with mine manual 5,6s best result ever. Usually slightly over 6 and even 7 seconds due to poor skills - mainly difficulties to control wheels spinning, to keep the grip on first and even second gear.

I hope the next model gets some much needed improvements. Even as a Chrysler fan, I can\'t bring myself to like this car. It\'s a Charger in a new skin that\'s less practical. Hopefully that was only the result of tight funding.
