You are right, with the difference in weight and extra power. The R/T will be quick.

Re: Challenger R/t 0-60

thats very impressive for a truck
If a 5000+ lb truck can do 0-60 below 6 seconds, i would certainly think a 4000lb car with the same hp could do it about 0.5 secs faster

Re: Challenger R/t 0-60

except it will not have 390hp and 407. its 375 and 404 for the 6spd and 370 and 398 for auto. That would be sweet.
