1.8 60' on all season tires, no powerbraking, in a car that freakin heavy, with 20" wheels????
Does that seem a little out of the ordinary to anyone else? There must be some SERIOUS prep work on the track there.

There are more than a few ways to "cheat" a bone stock car. I'm just curious as to how he's that much faster than the other guys out there. Sweet times either way.

i raced a bone stock one heads up at the track and i walked him every run. he was consistantly running 13.5's which i thought were absolutely horrible for that car. anyway i believe the car is capable of that time witha good driver its just that most older people buy those SRT-8's and most older people are too slow to shift.

My brother has a magnum r/t with the regular Hemi in it. It is not a bad car. Doesn't handle that well but has loads of torque (390 I think). If anyone cares, there are rumors that dodge is going to start building the challenger as a two door, 6 speed rear wheel drive coupe. I am just glad that an american car company is building V-8, rear wheel drive cars again. I love my Z but I also love american muscle.

245 series Eagle F1 crappy tires.
1.8 60', YEAH RIGHT!!! Those are the same tires that came on my Trans Am stock. But, I've got 16" wheels and weigh considerably less.
There's no way those tires will pull a 1.8 60'.

Like it or not the fact is he pulled those times. There were plenty of people there that saw the runs and the tires were stock. Even stupid mags are pulling 4.8 0-60 with these cars. They hook up.

they don't run quite that fast in southern cali, the fastest stock, (and it wasn't that bone stock with cai and esp mod) ran 13.04@ 107.80 mph. i saw the car and the slip at fontana this past sunday, he pulled a 1.9 60' on those 245 series Eagle F1 crappy tires as silverta2002 said
the elevation on this track is 1200ft and you always race against the wind, now, i would imagine those times are possible with 40 degress outside, at 100 ft track elevation, engine cooled out,etc,etc, i don't really see why not.....
