Well typically, Challenger guys like to swing that double edged sword in that they flame mags that don't print the results they want but then reference the same mags when they "get it right".

Since in Denver a Camaro can run 14.5 second quarter miles, then I guess it is a 14 second car. Fair is fair.
I sleep fine every night

And none of the magazines got 12.5-12.8 seconds on a M6 Camaro SS, I guess those times dont count either, right?

Wrong again. I asked for mag times on the Challengers, and I've seen several mags running 12.9s on Camaros. So I say the Camaro is a high 12 second car. The Challenger R/T is a mid-high 13 second car.

i'm not saying you are wrong, i'm saying it was wrong to go by the mags because real world numbers prove to be better. and no, i dont have documented proof so its all made up.

...boy, you camaro guys are probably lovin' this!

i had no problems with those number until i've seen them run better out in the wild. when i see people use them as the only reference, thats when i swing that double edged sword. its ok to hate the challenger, she's an easy target.
