    Just remember if you see him walking up to with an apron and plater of hot dogs and a sign that says "FREE MEAT" run like you've never run in your life! One of those buns is hiding more than a Ball Park Frank :zorro:

    Nah... I'd call this status quo. At some point, it'll get back on topic... possibly.

    You know Chris, you'll be shocked when we meet. I thought about this a few times...

    I'm WAY different in person than I am on here. I'm still kind of a smartass, but not nearly as much. I'm a better writer than speaker... actually, I'm almost quiet...

    Unless Ryan's around.

    Rick, on the other hand... he's "more Rick" in person. Much more so if there's percocet and/or alcohol within reach.

    Ryan is Ryan... idiocy and foolishness don't change.

    Drew is Drew too... except alot older in person.

    Moe. Hard to say... he's getting his Matrix outfit layered in carbon fiber, so you won't be able to recognize him anyway... he wants to become part of his car.

    No. It was started by Momo. He has an automated thread title generator and just fires one off every couple of hours so he has someone to talk to. There's no connection of the thread discussion to the title so hijacking is not possible.

    [edit] that may have not have come across like I meant it...

    Love the looks.....who doesn't, but was dissapointed in the weight and the stock performance numbers. Maybe Chrysler is just low balling the performance claims, plus I heard rumors of a "Drag Package" potentially available. Beauitful car, would I give up the jeep for one.......nope.:salut:

    "SS Drag Package" is sure to be soon offered. But it will be Drag only/Off-Road only rated.

    This is mild lol

    yes...back on topic!!..

    Any and all deficiencies in cars can be upgraded or modded...just need to have time, money, desire, materials, and tools...and maybe some skill too! haha...

    bottom line is...the manufacturer is basically giving us a base platform for us to go out and spend our bazillions of dollars on modding the crap out of them...

    some people will be perfectly happy with a stock SRT...most will need "enhancements"...so...if you are not fully satisfied...you can modify your car accordingly...i for one am looking forward to some modded challengers!!!

    According to the allpar site, http://www.allpar.com/cars/dodge/challenger.html , the 2009 challenger SRT8 will have the 2 options that I like, one is the 6 speed manual tranny and 3.92 gears, I hope this options make this car faster than the LX SRT8. The one thing I just can't understand is how can a 4 door Charger SRT8 be lighter than the 2 door Challenger, the dodge engineers f*ked up IOM. If they don’t do any additional changes to the challenger, the 2009 chevy camaron will definitely be a faster car.
