FYI charger RT's really are not that fast on the track, they weigh like 5000lbs and are absolute pigs :P.

Can definitely agree with those reflections. I put the intercooler in before I jumped to stage 1 because I had the same heat soaking, especially in the July/August heat. Vastly more consistent performance thereafter. I have done a lot with the suspension but am hesitant to install ARBs as I have regretted doing them on other cars in the past.
Those Dodges are real pigs. I have had Hellcat Chargers in my run group before and they are very easy to pass in every scenario other than on the straight (obviously). |
The Dodges are easy targets. I gained multiple car lengths in the braking zones and right transitions. Although not completely a fair fight since I dropped down to a slower run group for my first time out with the F30.
Agreed that the suspension is soft even in M-sport trim. But I walked away impressed with the car's capabilities considering the buyer it's designed for. We are probably the .001% that tracks these cars. Yet the car is still engaging with no major handling flaws to ruin the fun.
