PLEASE NOTE UPDATED BUILD - ADJUSTABLE FINAL DRIVE AVAILABLE Since the Dodge Challenger was released 40 years ago (and I've been looking for a theme for an enduro around Hallowe'en), I think getting a lobby full of 1970 Challengers together for 40 laps of Road America on Oct 30th is a good idea. I did want to make it a Nordschleife race, but the old Dodge is a bit too big for that track. Directions from Auburn Hills (Dodge HQ) to Road America. Anyone interested? Will be limited to one lobby unless there's enough people to run two. Car: 1970 Dodge Challenger Sport Brakes Sport Suspension Sport Front Roll Bar Sport Rear Roll Bar Sport Chassis Reinforcement *Sport Gearbox Sport Tyres 480hp 490lbft 3461lbs 57% front S4.2 H5.0 A6.0 L5.5 B5.0 Track: Road America 40 laps Estimated race length 1h 40m ABS: Yes TCS: No STM: No Autobrake: No Damage: Simulation Collisions: Always On Lobby allocation will be random, as will the grid order. Race will start at 8pm UK time. |

i'll be down for this for a giggle ;-) took the beast around RA....it hits the rev limiter going down the straights at 134mph. Are you keeping that standard box in then? |

The only way to get a higher speed without wrecking acceleration is to use the Race gearbox, to get two extra gears. I'm open to suggestions though. |

yeh, i didn't know if you wanted to keep it as real to the original as possible? Swapping for the race or sport box should do it, usually tops out with 2-300 meters to go on the straight..so it's not far off. The car goes through gear 1 to 4 really quickly...even a fifth gear would solve the problem |

Threw on the sport 'box with a final drive of 3.80, and it tops at 145mph. Only two straights are long enough for that speed, and you hit the limiter as you approach the braking point. I've updated the build with the sport 'box. |
