The chassis is just fine. First passes with a brand new car. The fly-by-wire throttle function was lazy and they'll get it worked out.

Do Challenger Drag Paks work ok? There ya go :-)

Drag Pak cars have manual throttle bodies, all motors including the v10. I always thought NHRA didn't like the dbw, but technical stuff is above my head.

Drive by wire is just one more thing to cause problems. Can't imagine why they want it. Mechanical throttle limiters are an easy way to slow one down.
