Charger!

My friend bought a charger and let me tell you one thing, those things can take off! Even with my forced induction civic, I will not be able to beat a charger. The car is like 1970s but has like 400-450 horse. He took it to the track and ran low 12s He paid like 50grand for a 1970 car. His is 4-spd. I told him to race me but he told me the mods and I said ok I will never beat that car straight away. However, if there were some obstacles for instance, turns, then the charger would have no chance. I rode in it, and that thing has no handling whatsoever. He literally has to be going 5 mph to make a turn. So if you ever are racing a charger make sure there is some turns so you can beat it. I dont know why he bought he but he is into antique cars and muscle cars while Im with imports.

Cool... Chargers have an incredible amount of power... Although they are damn fast I would still rather have something like an S2K with 18 Gs in my pocket for modification rather than blowing 50 Gs on a Charger.
