I know they still seem rare. Heck, I rarely see one myself besides the one I'm in when I have it out. Just wondering what kind of results anyone has had against one yet.
See, the Challenger Forums are all goo-goo about the Challenger R/T's 372 to 376 HP (auto vs stick) saying they'll be spanking Mustangs all over the place as soon as the weather gets nice. But having both the R/T and my GT, I don't think they will be that sucessful in stop-light matches or 1/4 track runs, at least not a stock R/T against even a Stock GT.
Now I know that the S197 has been out long enough for a lot of them to be modded so I'm not interested in hearing about how a SC Mustang spanked an unsuspecting Challenger R/T or even SRT (actually, that would be a fun read also).
I'm more interested in stock or mildly modded Mustangs taking the "win" against the Challenger.
On a personal note, I've lost a few stop-light battles with me in the R/T against what I expected to be stock or mildly modified S197's. But there have not been too many oportunities between November and now March.
