Hi Gang,
New member here. I have 800 mi. on my new Challenger Hellcat and I just have to laugh every time I hit the gas. Spent most of my life riding/racing dirt bikes and with two replaced hips, I figured it was time to switch to 4 wheels. I love my car. Widebody, 6 sp. and more fun than I've had in years. Looking forward to learning and chatting with the group.

I would love to keep riding, but motocross (my favorite) is out because of the hips and my aggressiveness dropped off after my second hip replacement. If I can't be aggressive, that's when the injuries start, so I decided 44 years of riding was long enough. Don't miss it much. You keep going as long as you can. I think the Hellcat is like a big 450. Loud, fast, and fun.

What do you want to know? Did you see the GT episode on Amazon Prime when Richard Hammond was trying to drift a Track Hawk and it wouldn't drift? It was awesome. Just wouldn't break loose and bounced around the track.
