Watching a YouTube video on the new Dodge Challenger Demon.

From Road and Track:
The numbers: 840 horsepower; 770 lb-ft of torque—the world's most powerful production car V8 engine. 2.3 seconds 0-60 (world's fastest for a production car), 5.1 seconds to 100 mph. Quarter-mile: 9.65 seconds at 140 mph, the world's fastest production car quarter-mile, as certified by the NHRA. In fact, that's so dang fast, Dodge says the car is "officially banned by the NHRA" for being too quick for a production car to run at a drag strip without a cage. :shock:

Hagerty Insurance is the only company that will insure it. I can't imagine the premium. :shock:

Long story short, I was going to buy a new electric blue Challenger in the 70s, but Mrs. FSB said, "It's too small". We ended up with a new white Charger. Mistake. :lol:

Good reporting, Marky.

Good reporting, Marky.

Thanks FSB. I'm a classic car guy for sure and a 70s electric blue Challenger is very desirable. No regrets though. I've been there too. :)

Easter etiquette on a talk show. Personally, I think chocolate on the face and fingers is perfectly okay. :P

Except for the big jobs, I'm the plumber, electrician, carpenter, gardener, painter, stainer, used to be mechanic, and so on. I've even done major repairs injecting the foundation (common in this area) after paneling removal. Fortunately, I had a nephew who is an engineer and manages a large commercial firm in that business to guide me.

I've worked in shipyards, as a prop man with a large carpentry shop, and lighting in studios, so I have some real experience added to my Industrial Arts during school. I also directed Mr. Fixit and similar series of telecasts.

But, I know when I'm licked and then I turn it over to the experts. It's the ones who don't know when they're over their head or take a century to complete the job that is dangerous. IMHO

Drywalling - not so good.
So to answer your question, Arjay. I think there's always a possibility. :wink:
