    Wonder if Racer X has ever thought about racing in NASCAR?

    He has already won some NASCAR races. Here is one of his first-place finishes!

    1. Personally I like the styling of the. charger, a few more retro ques maybe the 68 only bullet lights on the fenders.
    2. The inline 6 TT AWD could be doable If the pricing was in the 30K range. The electric version IMO needs a lighter battery that would need to last 500-800 miles on a charge with all max power drain being used while driving, then a small 911 battery back up too that you could switch over to.

    If the engine internals on the 6 TT's can support greater than factory boost levels it won't be long before tune options and bolt-on's will be available to increase performance. Do you have any info as to what differentiates the 2 offerings (420hp compared to 540hp)? Might turn out that the 420hp version could easily and cheaply become the 540hp version. I have very affordable entry level inline 6, 3.0 liter TT N54 2007 BMW 335's (an auto and a manual with factory 300hp) which were designed with forged engine internals allowing for huge, safe boost increases. On stock turbo's for $1500 these cars have become known as 'Scat Pack Eaters' by incorporating The Burger Motor Sports tuner and a few bolt-on's, the tuner also allowing for cheap E85 fuel use. BMS currently make a tuner for the I4 Turbo Dodge Hornet, so it may not be long before they and others mfg. a tuner for the Hurricanes.

    She's (my Challenger's) a bit of a garage queen so I'm not polluting the air as often as most owners ;) The original owner tastefully improved the car and I got her relatively cheap (actually traded this 2012 370 Z for her which I couldn't eliminate the rear wheel hop on despite hours of IRS improvements).

    Absolutely not possible that DJT could name the 50 states (suspect he also had to google the # of states prior to making the comment). Our PM (not without his flaws) is an honorable, intelligent and educated man who's had a 10 year run.

    That's great, I can use your carbon credits, and drive mine that much more. If you actually believe in that hoax.

    PM daddy's boy, all he needed was the name to get in.

    Does that mean you car isn't a Scat Pack eater? There is always a bigger fish that can go faster, for those that actually care.
