XV Challenger on Track Video
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.

Great stuff guys.
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.

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. Originally Posted by dqhemi

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