I want to compete in A, I would try to go to AA but I can not compete against a blown Mustang.

It appears to me that the AHFS is catching up with the 6.1 Challenger (not fast enough for some, but it is getting there).

Just my $.02

Do ya suppose that Doug was 1) short shifting 2) running heavy 3) "Dumping" before the finish line 4) running it detuned 5) or with the A/C turned on or all of the above????? LOL
