Sorry Paul, nowhere near. Are you sure you don't want to take off your stb or lca's and sell them to me pre-sale? The new owner would never know

You looking forward to be able to drive a car around corners with the brakes? (Dodgey)

Hey nothing wrong driving a car around corners using your brakes! just a bit dodgey when the brakes throw you in the hedge..or was it because I driving a 2 ton car too fast down country lanes when suddenly by magic another car came the other way?? hey paul does the charger have a silly horn, my challenger did but not for long

Sheet! I Checked every gauge and all the lights, forgot about the horn! Mind if I sneak off the STB, LCA's, for Felix, I'll have to swipe the air horns at the same time.

I think the guy would probably notice the STB was missing though!

The weirdest thing about the car (apart from it doesn't corner quite as well the Camaro), is how light the steering is. Definately a one finger job. The Camaro feels so nicely weighted.

Yep I agree with the light steering, my challenger would start to turn after a while ,bit like an oil tanker doing a u-turn, but the steering box had more slack than a ****** beaver!

Hey paul a very good webb site is the 'dodge challenger homepage'..cant remember the exact address but a google search should bring it up, has brilliant links to all chargers & challengers well worth a visit

Thanks for that. I'm finding Charger info a bit hard to come by. There's dodge-charger.com which also has some links, and the mopar UK website.

Cheers,
Paul

Is that the stars & stripes show ? If so, friends of ours who stay in Poulton-Le-Fyldes said it was on their local news & it's becoming one of the biggest american car shows in England. Is that right ? I think I'll definately book for next year.

Is it bigger than the NEACC's "fins & chrome" show @ Preston park, Stockton-On-Tees ? I've been going to that for the last 4 years, I fancy a change now ! What shows are worth going to ?
