There is no smoke and mirrors here. If these were from a Camaro you'd never think twice about it. It's comical.

Why don't you go read the thread I posted if you want all the details of each run. Most people included everything with their posted time.

It seems the biggest obstacle is getting off the line without boiling the tires.

Something you guys gotta remember is that a lot of the Challengers have 3.92 gears. That makes a pretty big difference in acceleration.
This IS a Camaro site So, can one get a limited slip in the rear ends on all models now? Those are some bad@$$ gears, for sure!

I, too, just don't really understand why so many have jumped ship... You've ordered, deposited, and will be getting your cars soon! I'm not trying to take anything away from our Dodge friends, but all this says to me is that I think most people doing this really aren't Camaro people. That's cool. If you want muscle, there ya' go. I think it just leaves more opportunities for others to get a Camaro who would've had to wait. I can see the money thing - you can't argue that. Everyone has their priorities though. I don't think it's unreasonable to say that Camaro is a better well-rounded car, exterior, interior, powertrain, chassis. Styling in/on the interior and exterior is subjective, but originality is where I think Camaro pulls ahead (if only a bit if you don't like the style) because it doesn't have parts (or many) from another car on the same platform. I won't go so far as to say there's something wrong with that because when I got my '02, I didn't care about how the interior looked, how it felt, or how it fit. I wanted speed, and I wanted it cheap. Everyone's going to be looking for what they want to, and if they find it in another car, my hat's off to you and I'm happy for ya'. I wish it could be for Camaro, to bump those sales numbers up, but I can't get on someone for jumping ship too much. As long as you're happy; that's what's important

Congrats'
