The recorded achievements of
Australian
Factory Supercars over the Quarter Mile. The Australian Chrysler
E49 Charger R/T with its Six Pack Hemi 265 race tuned to produce 302hp
straight from the showroom floor gained the reputation of being Australia's
fastest accelerating Factory Production Supercar. Even today we are
waiting for an Australian factory to produce a faster accelerating vehicle.
