If I were you, I would ask about the adjustable attatching points for the rear suspension. I did and if I were you, I would also. Mine has one hole per point and is not adjustable. Other than that, they are the virtually the same. I know mine passes, and yours might be ok also.

From the Dragzine..com site "The 2010 Drag Pak Challenger, much like the 2009 version, will be a factory-developed body-in-white vehicle kit based on the 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8. The car will feature a 1,000 pound weight reduction with the removal of major components and systems, a lift off hood with a functional scoop, Dodge Viper-style front seats that accommodate 6-point harnesses, and polycarbonate door windows.
Other features include a modified transmission tunnel, raised floor for solid axle conversion, solid engine mounts, shortened wheelbase, special modified K-member, lightweight drag race only front brake assembly, and manual rack and pinion steering. Engine packages include the 5.7-liter, 6.1-liter Hemi and 5.9L Magnum. The standard 6.1 Hemi features a forged steel crankshaft, forged 12:1 pistons, a hydraulic roller cam, .584” valve lift with 1.6 ratio rocker arms, and a special high ram EFI intake manifold with a 4-barrel throttle body. Both a four-speed automatic and 6-speed manual transmission setup are part of the package, although the transmission itself is not. As stated on the order form, the car requires extensive work following delivery, as it lacks a roll cage, safety equipment, wheels and tires, transmission, and many other components that make it race-ready." I did not realize these didn't come as an assembled car, but rather what would be called a craftsman kit of some sort. It mentions "raised floor for solid axle conversion" in the text. When Corvettes change do they modify the body also? Is it still illegal to modify the wheel well to fit a 9" tire in a car then? Is the Mustang actually a running car when delivered? |

shortened wheelbase, raised floor SOUNDS LIKE A REAL FX CAR FOR SURE!!!!!
