I did see one article on the Hellcat Durango stating it is only going to a be around for 1MY because it won't pass emissions in 2022...wonder how that will start to effect the rest of the hellcat lineup

The Challenger platform (for the most part) is a straight line, heavy car that is meant to go fast for 1,320'. The Widebody models were created by adding larger brakes, better suspension, wider tires, etc., to an otherwise straight line monster. They did what they could, but in the end, they still cannot sniff a ZL1, GT500 and most other cars in the segment, around a track. Enjoy your Mopar's, but you're not going to get many people to jump on board with you at C5.

Agree and a Pirelli, 305 at that. Why not a 315? So many other options for tire at that size. A lot have switched to the Michelin Pilot Sport AS (305) and it's suppose to be a huge difference but I'm not at the point of needing tires yet. Would love to be able to cram the 315 Pilot Super Sport under there but not sure about fitment. Some are running 315's but I know from experience the Super Sport is typically wider for the size.

That hurt a bit need to make sure I avoid the wringer LOL
I'm a Muscle Car guy 1st Mopar I have owned and I like the Challenger, much better than the Mustangs I had in the past. If GM was to make a Muscle Car I would consider it but it would need to be better than a rebadged Holden that they have done in the past. I am sure that GM is not going to do that so my next car will be a Big Block Olds Just need to send my youngest to university 1st She was picked up to play at a D1 Hockey in the US now I have to figure out if it is safe to send her to the US in Sept.

The guy's name is Mike (Streetspeed717) and he doesn't live too far from me. Yes, he has had some very nasty cars built for him in the past.
