Re discovered some old videos of my Charger

[timmycharger]

I forgot my buddy posted these on you tube. This was from 01 or 02, right before I took it off the road and started the resto.  The track video brings me back bad memories as I spent good money to get a spot on a track rental day at New England Dragway. I just bought new aluminum wheels and tires for the front, and aluminum rears with brand new slicks.  At the time, the car was running high 12's with good street tires, so I knew I had a few more tenths out of it.  I was in a huge rush putting them on at the track and I noticed that the lugs were not going on easily but I monkey'd them on anyway.  I lined up, did a small burnout, barely got rid of the stickers, then did my first pass. go to the booth, timeslip is 12:86 right off the bat. Then I see a guy in a track shirt come running waving his arms and when he caught up to me he said my wheels were wobbling all down the track, all I could picture was the movie Vacation with the Griswold station wagon, but I thought it felt fine, but I uncorked my headers so it was sort of tough to say. Well after taking off the wheel, I noticed the weight on the drum was all silvery shiny, the weld pro lites didn't clear that weight. I couldn't do anything about it there, so I was forced to put on my street tires for the rest of the day.  2 weeks later I decided to convert it to a 4 speed and when I started taking it apart, one thing led to another so I wasn't able to really see what it could do with that set up, with was a 440 sixpack with 4:10 with a 3500 stall converter. It will go back together with a 3:54 and 4 speed so the performance will be similar I think as Ill be adding worked Eddy heads.  Don't mind the cobra in the beginning of the video, my buddy is a Ford guy
