Both of those are absolute monsters. Though I'm obviously glad to see the Shelby Super Snake pull out the victory. Thanks for sharing.

Although I like the Challenger and the SuperSnake I am happy with the SuperSnakes victory and respect both vehicles.

Both are formidable cars, and I'd have either.

funny thing is there were 2 Challengers at my local strip last tuesday an SRT-8 and an R/T and neither were close to running near my bolt-on 08 Auto GT.....the SRT's BEST pass was 13.55!

I agree I have seen them pull a 13.3 before and also take in mind those cars have 20's stock which will really make your times suck.

The sounds coming from the SuperSnake were enough to make a grown man weep with joy.
Ya think I'd be too much of a poser if I recorded that engine, burned it to DVD and played it as loud as I could every time I rolled up to an SRT 8?
