Actually, Drew, you need to calm down and take your pills! :lol:

It's an R/T, he said so in the first message (so I guess it's a 5.7, too)

By the way, I think he also mentioned the color...
I'll translate it for you : NOT black! :wink:

So far, I really love the car. I swore I would keep it stock, but already looking at some bolt ons.

Cool photos! 8)

The new Challenger is a big heavy beast though isn't it? Makes the Mustang look light and nimble. :nod:

It's a friend's Mustang. It has a Whipple, bolt ons and exhaust. I have an 85 GT which is my mostly strip car. Before that I have had a few other Fox bodies, a ProCharged 06 GT, the infamous Silver Bucket ('01 GT).

My 85 with the old set up ran a 10.01 N/A and the silver 01 GT ran a 11.10 and backed it up with a 11.13. My new set up with the 85 should be in the mid 9's N/A.
