Re: I will be driving a protype challenger in minutes...
My sister in law got to drive a Challenger last weekend. Her and my brother went to BeaveRun (in PA) to check out One Lap of America because they knew the Challenger would be there.
Well, since they had wrecked the Vanishing Point Challenger, they had an orange one there. My bro and SIL got to talking to the guys (Ralph Gilles & Erich Heuschele) - and it turns out that the orange Challenger they're driving now is actually Ralph's personal car (and the #9 production Challenger off the line). You can see some pics of the car and a video of it on the track here. I also have a vid of her in the car driving it. Basically Erich handed her the key and let her drive it around the paddock since they had a couple minutes before they had to have it on the track. I think she still has a grin on her face.

Re: I will be driving a protype challenger in minutes...
I drove the prototype Challenger!!!
It was a bit beat up but it was just like driving the Charger SRT8. The back seat was smaller than I thought it would be but overall an awsome car!!! I tried to post some pics but the file was to big. I tried to save one of the pics as my signature...hope it works!!

Nice cornering at speed thats what I wanted to see !
There was a few mustangs at the track this past weekend and man I wasn't impressed at all they ran very slow and slid off line in the corners like a snail sliding off a stick of butter. I'm liking what I see no body lean to mention at all as the SRT8 took those corners and stayed don line like a champ! |
