I thought the SRT8 and tha SS were kinda neck & neck.. it would be a driver's race while the SS has a "Slight lead" everyone is basing the SRT8's performance from the auto mags.. who couldn't drive for shit
And last time I checked.. the chally has better gearing And for tha last time !!!! 8-speed transmission!!!!! it will play a huge role in performance.. so we don't know what to expect Last time I checked.. those 8 speeds is what really move those Bentley's, correct me if I'm wrong

Are you high? The RT is not only down 50hp but also has the 300 lb. disadvantage. How can driving make up for both of them. A 400 hp L99 driven by an idiot will pull away from an M6 RT with a professional driver.

the RT is underrated it pretty much has the same specs as the SS l99 do some research. besides that, cant wait til they unveil the mysterious 7th engine. |

But regardless, I'd say it has more to do with the fact that some of those luxury land yachts have a power to weight ratio between 9 and 10 lbs per hp. And they're not only powerful but also ridiculously torquey.

Gearing isn't the only thing moving those cars around, a 6.0 twin turbo W12 will move just about anything at a decently quick pace |

Might have been thinking of a Rolls Royce, I think they have at least one 8 speed.

A. believe what you have to about R/T times. B. have you seen the fast times list here? My buddy just bought a challenger R/T but I couldnt get him to take it to the track if Jesus came down and offered him $1,000,000. I dont understand some people.:( |
