I've been trying to get a last shot at the track, but now will have to wait until spring for a track to open. Anyway, Red is still my daily and hopefully motivate some of the other 03 owners to get out and show what they'll do.
The only track prep done is to put the slicks on her. I trailer her to the track for convenience if she should break I can easily get her home on my own. I did blow a hose and was glad the trailer was there. Reds been getting faster each year with the PB now20171008_120727.jpg at 11.66@117mph. All you 3rd gens come on out to play.

It's was a daytime tnt. That 138mph was a stock looking, sounding Hellcat on 18psi.

There is always room to grow. I've been working on my 03 since it was new each year adding and changing things around. Just have a master plan and do a little at a time. After this is suppose to be fun. I'm in the process of putting a cog drive together. It's taken longer than planned for and cost me my last two track days this year and new PB.

I did the small brake kit some time ago, preparing to use 15" rims. And in preparation for the sbk I installed a hydroboost brake system. I found the sbk to still be tighter than I liked so machined the rotors and move the caliper in another 1/4". Sometimes every little bit counts. Years ago while running 17" aluminum rims in the front with drop spindles I caught a piece of gravel between the caliper and rim. Ruined the rim.

Honestly I don't have a chance to carry anything but groceries in it and it is also covered. So I can say its just like the day I sprayed it. I like it and would it again.
