Doug Frazier's New Challenger
 

Here's a couple of pics I shot of Doug racing Footbrake class in his new Challerger at his home track, Brainerd Optimist Drag Strip Saturday night. He made it to the quarter-finals.

Wayne,
Thanks for posting these pics! I am having a lot of fun with this car wish some wheel company made wheels for it but maybe i will find some soon.


ED,
Thank you, I am on a learning curve with this car. So far 10.35 @ 70.00mph 1/8 mile not to bad for a little motor in a really heavy car. I know what it wants at the starting line but trying to predict what it will run is a challenge usually it will repeat but it will throw u a curve and be a tenth slow or fast so im taking notes and trying to learn but 3 races so far and got down to 8 cars 2nd race and 4 cars in the 3rd race so I am pretty happy so far, maybe You or Billy have some advice on how to predict this car? Hope to see You soon!
Doug

Just hold ten. A friend of mine tried to race a v-6 Mustang and it did the same thing. He finally gave up and went back to his old 302 maverick.

One thing that might? help Is to disconnect the battery before a run. It works with some of the turbododges it gets the computer into a learning mode. So it doesn't try so slow itself down.

Re: Doug Frazier's New Challenger
 

Disconnect the battery and hold your foot on the brake pedal for about a minute to discharge the capacitor in the cpu. You want to kill the KAM (keep alive memory) it will relean everything on the way home. You'll need to do it every run though.

Larry, you have a PM

Mark, back to you.

Re: Doug Frazier's New Challenger
 

Doug,! How is your Challenger setup? Engine, Trans, Gear, Etc,...? Just wondering! Weight? I was tell a friend about your car, and these are the questions he asked me! Thanks, John Lang.........

Re: Doug Frazier's New Challenger
 

Just my guess John, but it looks like the six banger, auto of course 4 speed or 3 speed?, 3.07 or so rear gear, with the upgraded 18 inch rims, I would wager 3850 without driver.

My favorite color......except for Tor Red.....which I have on order....classic r/t stick.....not to be confused with one of the "smurf" colored B-5's.

Doug enjoy your new toy, especially its lifetime powertrain warranty!
