Demon 170 performance in perspective…

I couldn’t get the picture I saw him leaving the track from the highway. I hit a lot of traffic and couldn’t get to the gas station to get the picture. He was on the highway by the time I got off

I just read that. Still need coffee.

I edited it. i guess my auto correct was wrong. My bad on confusion

Interesting they're STILL testing. Wont have time to build many of these I'm thinking. Again, I think it's a gift to Dodge folks that worked on the Hemi platform.

Probably still blowing them up? Maybe they're trying to put the final touches on the software?

 

[Speedy!]

I doubt they're blowing up. Motors are built pretty stout. Probably software testing if I had to guess.

 

[drag racer]

I sure as heck would hope so at this point!

Well this late in the game it's super late. Testing should've been completed before Jan 1 IMO for a 2023 model year car. That's why I'm saying I don't think they intend to build very many and it's by design.

 

[ACMAVRO]

I got the feeling they weren’t going to build very many when they put the gutted prototype on Leno

They said in Vegas they had more testing to do. As long as they are not changing any hard parts it will just be a different tune to load

 

[vortecd]

Think is was July before they were building them so if it is just the tune no big deal

 

[Speedy!]

Never heard of a car company still working on a current model year car in what's pretty much May of the model year.

If it were any other car people wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot pole for fear of "rush to market".

I heard a nasty rumour that there is another Halo ICE car coming, D170 not the last one. From a a fairly well connected source, but we'll see...................

I wouldn't doubt it for a second, but I bet it's based on the new 6cyl and has turbo(s)

I wouldnt think of something new as a halo car. It sounds like there will be a new platform the 6 will be in

So if the current Challenger platform continues into the 2024 MY and has a V8 with a power adder, how pissed off are the "Last Call" buyers going to be...?

What i thought was they can't make anymore starting jan 1st 2024 in that plant. Would they move production to a different plant

Unclear to me, however, I think the issue is that they can't make the 6.2L supercharged beyond MY23 because of emissions changing.
