    Challenger Hellcat gets 707HP!

    Not the 80s anymore. Go look at the torque curves of the new turbo motors. Often they are better than na motors. Heat is still the issue on a road course. Look at the motor in the zonda. Big high revving dohc motor. Would love to see that. Viper would be one of the last big displacement, big...

    Challenger Hellcat gets 707HP!

    Just need to redesign a dohc, but still large v10 engine. Maybe 7ish liters and 120hp/liter like ferraris get. Would push 800+ in na. And would be one of the last na supercars. Give it a dct too at least as an option.

    Viper production continues...2015 model?

    A viper with a supercharger just isn't a viper anymore, IMO. SC are not for road course duty, especially roots blower...all that heat just sits on the top of the engine. The viper is NOT a one lap wonder.

    Hellcat in viper

    If they need more hp than the current platform can muster, I would rather they go dohc and na than supercharger. A big high revving dohc v10 would be awesome.

    Highest mileage gen iv acrs?

    I know mine isn't the highest, but it's about to turn over 20k. Anyone know what the highest mileage 08-10 acr is at? Just curious. I always se them with about 8k or less miles.

    Dude, gross! :D I like caesar salad, but if my car smelled like that...that would be terrible!

    any news besides this from the ny auto show

    The splitter on the ACR is an amazing piece of kit. It goes so far back on the car...almost to the driver. The whole system works well together, but your point is correct, the Gen V is a better platform. I really hope we get an ACR like package for the Gen V soon...

    any news besides this from the ny auto show

    The 2010 was only .3 seconds slower than the TA. Also pro driver vs dodge engineer. I'm sure he's a great driver but not the same like you pointed out. The TA put 3 secs between itself and the 2010 on slicks I believe. You can't say that. The gen v is a better platform. Better chassis...

    That was my point. Seems ridiculous to say how the aero is more amazing then the outgoing acr with no numbers. Also the lack of a true adjustable wing makes the comment dubious. Won't be holding my breath. Car will be awesome, but nothing all that exciting in the aero department, IMO.

    Stock Air Tubes Faded Coloring

    Thanks. I'm not that concerned about how it looks. I'm curious if it's indicative of something more serious. Seems odd that one would be much more faded than the other.

    Stock Air Tubes Faded Coloring

    I'll try to get a picture, but one of the air tubes from the intake (if you are standing in front of the car looking at the engine it's the right side) is faded a lot more than the other one. It's practically grey while the other one is pretty black. The car is always garaged and has about 20k...

    Give me the numbers. There is no chance it makes more downforce than the gen iv acr. You are smoking the good stuff. I will eat my hat if it makes more than 1200-1500 lbs at 150. The splitter extender on the acr isn't even street legal. It took this: For mclaren to tie/beat (barely) the specs...

    Is Gen 5 more suitable as a daily driver than Gen 4?

    I have a gen iv acr. I only use mirrors to change lanes. You just lean forward and as you sit back you can see your blind spits and everything else. I've daily driven cars with much worse blinds spots. It's not an issue.

    Is Gen 5 more suitable as a daily driver than Gen 4?

    Dude it's 2014. Just the find the car at a dealer anywhere and have them ship it. I've done it with other cars it easy. I bought my acr off eBay flew out and drove it from Tx to ca.

    Limp mode after jumping the battery

    Thanks. I restarted the car and it went out of limp mode, but the CEL is still on which seems to be the normal thing. Will drive it around for a while and see if it restarts after a few power cycles.

    Limp mode after jumping the battery

    2008. I turned it off and back in. It's not in limp mode anymore. The flashing lightning bolt thing is gone but the check engine light is still on.

    Limp mode after jumping the battery

    So my battery got really low, not totally dead, but I needed to jump the car. The jump went fine, but now the check engine light is on and there is this weird flashing red lightning bolt thing blinking and the car won't rev pass 3k...maybe less. Is this normal if the car needs a jump...

    2015 Z06 specs leaked 620hp/650tq

    With the same tires the TA will be faster especially in the heat and after many laps. The acr will destroy it. With that said its a cool car. Zr1s heat soak like crazy when it's really hot and lapping hard. This will be the same.

    Traded in GTR for new Viper!

    yeah, i was going to say if you are just some street racer might as well stick with the GTR.

    SCT for the Gen 5

    How much money to develop this are we talking about? 20k? 50k? 100k? 1 mil? Why not get a couple good programmers who have experience together and do a kickstarter for it? The issue you run into there is if it costs too much and not enough people actually care...which could be the case.

    Saying bye and giving an apology

    sorry to hear about your experience. real question: [/COLOR] what does this mean? it's not actually a sentence. I'm assuming it's just a typo, but I'm also interested in what it's referring to.

    Gen V ACR performance speculation...

    People need to realize that we are starting to approach the ceiling for road cars on road legal tires. We are way down the path of diminishing returns for improvements and money spent. It will/is becoming exponentially more difficult to remove large amounts of time when you start running in...
