    WTB: Set of 20” Alcoa wheels

    I’m looking for a set of 20” Alcoa wheels. They do not need to say super snake on the them. I’m looking for a set of 4. I would prefer a set new in the box ( I know that is highly unlikely). I would take a set used a long as they do not have any road rash on then or have ever been bent/ damaged...

    Advice on wheel hop & gear swapI’m sure this has been covered another post. I tried searching and ca

    I have a completely stocked 14 GT 500 Convertible. It has terrible wheel hop. Is it better to do the upper or lower control arms to solve this problem? My second question is on the gears. I don’t like the stock 3.31 gears. Is it better to go at 373’s or 4.10’s. I don’t do any thing for...

    C8 Performance -vs 2020 GT500

    Someone shared this with me today. Looks like the 0 to 30 time is the same as the Dodge Demon, The 0 to 60 is under three seconds, and the quarter mile time is very good for a car with only 495hp. I wonder how it will stack up against a new GT500 on the street. Not on the dragstrip just stop at...

    Hellcat weights 4439lbs vs shelby @ 3845lbs: will an extra 45hp off set the 594 lbs

    http://www.torquenews.com/106/2015-dodge-challenger-srt-hellcat-weighs-4439lbs Hellcat weights 4439lbs vs shelby @ 3845lbs: will an extra 45hp off set the 594 lbs. I don't think so. I'm just curious to see what others think. The hellcat might just be a fat cat.

    13-14 GT500 -VS- 15' Hellcat. Which car will be king of drag strip!

    Now that dodge reviled the new hell cat has 707 hp. Which car do you think is going to be faster 0-60 and quarter mile? Which car do you think can tolerate mods better. I personally think a modded GT500 will always roast any modded Dodge product.

    Convertible Top Issue?

    Is anyone else having trouble getting the convertible top to close properly? On mine the latch doesn't line up properly and it is binding. I have to stop just before the latch hits and manually pull the top into alignment? Any TSB's on this issue?

    Will the 5.8 engine continue in the new S550

    Wondering what other folks think about the news that the 5.8 will continue in the new Mustang. Is this just hype or do we believe it's the fact. I've seen reports that suggests a 5.8 L will continue under a Mach 1 label. Any information would be appreciated.

    2014 -vs- 2015 share you're two cents

    Maybe I am the only one that feels this way but if "I wanted a euro styled car" or something "Aston Martinish" I wouldn't be driving an American Muscle Car, with a Big V8, and loud exhaust. To me this is the equivalent of The Harley Davidson Motorcycle Company saying hey here is a "bright...
