315 drag radials at all four corners, AWD(?), 200lb weight savings.....

Not AWD, it is street legal though. And in the last video they said it dropped weight, so 200 lbs sounds right.

Wow Nittos on a production car.
Didn’t see that coming but it makes sense.

Then why drag radials up front? I doubt they would go through all this effort to make it fast only to have the front wheels carry your spare rear tires.

That was my first thought as well since they now make an AWD Challenger.

Are we sure they are actually drag radials? The z28 had 305's at every corner.

I read more after I commented. Clearly the best time to comment in when you’re uniformed.

Roadandtrack has an article explaining that the 200lb weight loss will come from very particular option selection including no rear seat.

That’s exactly what they are for. Cheaper to have 1 wheel / tire combo as well. All SRT’s now run a square stance as well.
