They typically run 13.1-13.3 in decent DA if driven by a moderately decent driver. They always look slow at the track because they have to be feathered on launch. with just a handheld tune they are 12.7-12.8, and on DRs--12,5 or better.

However-beware--contrary to the BS you read on this and other forums--they are not slow and in fact--(as one previous poster pointed out--from 70 roll up- LOOK OUT)

Having said all that--with your mods, from a dig or low speed roll--you will win. Just don't take him on from 60-70 roll--then its gonna get interesting.
Now-when he gets your mods (tune, intake, etc...) you will have a match.

I run mine against each other all the time--I speak the truth with no vested interest- If anyone wants to see a vid-let me know (have posted it before)

Curious Mike... Maybe because at track only 13.1 at 108mph...not very impressive...

anyway my friend have a Challenger srt8...I will try with him very soon on the highway. 30-145, 60-145 and 100-145. I will speak about the results here.

Oh and for info...against the viper the race is neck to neck 65-115 and I pull 1 1/2 car on him after that (I stop at 145 because limiter) But see the face driver of Viper... The guys is very confused...

A+
