Here's part of one of the episodes from Dream Car Garage. Shows our '70 Challenger getting wrung out on a road race course.

I have some other video I need to get up on our site as well. One bit shows the differences before and after of chassis stiffening - it's pretty interesting.

This video is in Windows Media format - .wmv and is about 7MB, so you may want to download it first.

Anyway - enjoy!

It's likely about 3,200 lbs. Our test mule Cuda w/ stock interior and A/C weighed 2,900. The Challenger has more 'stuff' in it (sound deadening, power seats, amps, speaker box, subs, etc., etc.

Thanks!

We rented the track for the day for the TV shoot, so that may have had something to do with it.

Looks like we're going to have a track setup where you can really stretch the legs of that B-Body later this year (hint, hint).

You may want to be sure you have it ready to rock by early October. :twothumbs

Hmm, even if I was completely alone on the track I can't imagine pushing a car hard on a track w/o a helmet.

Great looking car though.

If that car had a small front chin spoiler, it would be perfect IMO.
