    The Nitto's definitely helped.
    Pulled two high 13's with a bone stock 2010 SRT 6-speed

    The 12.685 in run 3 was a kid who brought a
    2018 ScatPack Challenger RENTAL CAR to the track :)
    He said last week he brought Another Rental an RT and could only get mid 14’s
    .

    I’m sure there is something in the fine print about that....:D
    Hopefully he washes the rubber bits from behind the rear wheels before he takes it back.

    I do wonder if he thought of that :)

    Well I guess the Nitto's are grabbing at 15 LBS
    Guess I need to dig out the wood screws?

    Just uploaded a couple Videos of this weekend.

    I got a kick out of the kid in the 2018 ScatPack rolling through the lights and backing up :)

    So,
    you automatic 6.1's should be able to show slips of at least low 13's or High 12's
    and you 392's in Low 12's maybe 11's?

    Lets See them!

    that 6.1 should be running in the 12's, my pretty stock 2009 RT with 17" drag radials and running the 91 tune and solo performance exhaust has run 12.9 to 13.2 in the 1/4. I'm just pulling just under 350hp at the wheels .

    I am taking my baby to the track again this weekend, weather permitting.
    And so far, Saturday still looks dry, and cooler than last trip.

    Feel I got a good BASELINE last month and am going to try a few things to get it into the low 13's, maybe even high 12's :)

    Changed my Trans Fluid (didn't know we had to do that every 20k)
    Pulling the Passenger Seat
    Throwing a Spare in the trunk for more weight over the wheels
    Concentrate on my 2nd-3rd shift :driver:
    Remembering to TURN OFF Traction Control
    I know this was a problem as one tire did slip more on the rim at 15-lbs than the other.

    Also trying some https://boostane.com/ Pro to get it up from 92 to 100-101 octane
    (Will do two passes without, then with some)

    Only got 4-laps in lastnight because a lane got oiled down :(
    So I didn't get a chance to do all the testing I wanted to.
    Had planned to pull the Passenger Seat (54lbs),
    but my Wife, Son & Grandson all decided to come with me,
    so had to leave the Spare tire (62lbs) to make room for my Sons Wheel Chair
    but did try the EPS OFF -- failed with real bad wheel hop.

    Still got an average of 13.7 @ 100 mph
    but got a 13.997 @ 102.05
    with one Reaction time of .088, the rest were all .25's
