That idiot has to go into the speed lane and slow you down at 1:00 (in the video. How dare that piece of crap BMW get in the way of you Challenger! There should be laws against that! By the way, be careful! your one idiot away of turning the irreplacable beauty into a tin can.
Hey you went to Ausfahrt. I looked for that place the whole time I was stationed in Germany. I could never find it even though the signs said it at every exit. I was in Katterbach Kasern 96-2000 near Ansbach. I love your videos please keep them coming they are wunderbar.
@Zarjofrapful@hernandezrivas no its in MPH, the speedo only goes to 225 km/h. but thats just the speedo, it may actually be able to go faster than that
I love this Video! thanks for sharing your experience with everyone :-) I have a 72 Dodge charger 440, with 3.55 gears but no Autobahn here. Would love to know the rpm she was pulling! and the specs on your Challenger etc.
Ok. First, That is not a factory Speedometer for a 1970 Dodge Challenger (150 MPH) even in Germany. Second it could be that the gearing in the speedometer is not calibrated right. Third, even though it says MPH on the speedometer it would be KPH. (110 KPH is about 67 MPH) and that is what it looks like. I have been 140 in my Challenger and that is no where close to the things going by...
@SMITHnWESSON44m You can see the last digit on the odometer (that digit at this stage either represents kilometers or miles) ticking over.
By observing the time between the odometer's update's, and the speed the needle on the speedometer indicates the car is going, it should be possible to calculate the true speed of the Challenger.
I'm thinking a graph would be the way to go at this point.
I'll leave that up to you, I'm a bit intoxicated at the moment.
@SMITHnWESSON44m " I have been 140 in my Challenger and that is no where close to the things going by..".were you traveling at an estimated velocity of 140 mph while any other vehicles around you were traveling much slower? The vehicles that 66PaleRider was passing were traveling at a velocity closer to the estimated nearly 140 MPH that 66PaleRider was traveling at. Everybody on the Autobahn(except the campers) is traveling at 100+ MPH. Perception of "speed" is diminished, the perception of
Noticed that the little car in the hammer lane got out of your way ASAP. Good on ya!
You can't go anywhere in Canada because those sumbitches plug the passing lane for no reason whatsoever and never care to look behind them. They would'nt survive 5 miles in the USA or the Autobahn.
@ExMxer3 Here in Atlanta, GA if you're going slow in the passing lane(s) (some highways are 6 in each direction) you're going to get passed with a vengeance. Gridlock frequently moves at 40mph+, speeds sometimes get as high as 90, even around cops.
I'd love to play Cat n' Mouse with you on the freeway....I have a 69 Charger R/T 440 with Dual Quads, 6 speed gear split trans....I am down in Greece....
Beautiful sound by the way...Havent quite made the move from HP Man's to my Shorty Hedmans yet...
Thanks for the ride! What a beautiful sound that card makes. Man that was great! If he hadn't been such a fruitloop, I'd thank Hitler for the autobahn. Tell me, when you were doing a buck thirty an d that little shitbox doing 50 wouldn't get out of your way, did you feel your balls acending into your stomach? CRASH!
Do you have the supercharger on it, i am guessing not or else i Would see those 70's superchargers with a huge valve structure coming out of the hood.
@66PaleRider Well tell me what you done to it if you don't mind, I want mine to be fast too dammit. If it isn't allready I don't even know what these engines run like in the first place that's why i'm asking you.
@66PaleRider Well I don't know where that is so why can't you just tell me what you did to your car, it's not that special I don't care what it takes mine will be as fast or probably faster than yours so you should just tell me, I already have a complete excellent running 1970 440 six pack engine and 4 speed i'm going to put in my 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T SE but I was just wondering about your engine.
It's not that I don't wanna tell you, but I just don't know...
My engine is (re)built back in 2001 by someone with whom I don't have contact anymore. On my request he souped up the engine a bit but without losing the streetability. But for me the engine is a 'black box'. That's why I referred to that forum. YT doesn't allow me to put an url here, but google for these terms I gave you. That forum helped me with the way I built my suspension. You should certainly check it out.
@66PaleRider Well how come I can't hear the carbs, i'm curious as to what a six pack sounds like, is it a real six pack with the 3 carbs or is it like my engine in my challenger a six pack engine with one huge holley 4 barrel double pumper? And does a 440 six pack motor run like yours stock or is there a big difference in a stock one and your engine because that damn thing is very strong.
@Tait011 sorry i don't mean to get on your case but this is an american classic. You don't see these anymore with pathetic slant 6 engines. They've all been replaced with big block V8's. The way american cars should be!
Wasn't scary at all; car was vary stable at high speeds.
Made several (suspension) upgrades to make it this stable:
front & rear sway bar, thicker torsion bars, new shocks, new leaf springs, new bushings, subframe connectors, 17" rims with low profile tires and a front spoiler to keep nose down
@66PaleRider Before reading the comments i noticed how stable you steeringwheel is at those speeds, so i knew this thing aint with stock suspension and still with original powersteering? and all those whiners out there who are saying you should burn out or other way "abuse" these old muscle cars f*ck you, i think all these muscle cars should be owned guys who beat the s*it out of them but know how to fix them if they break down...if all these were put on climated storages we would run out spares
Is it a 440 CID six pack? Congratulations! I never saw nobody puts a Muscle Car in action like that! Most people with muscle cars uses to makes burnouts that means nothing to me !
. . . this video shows that the old muscle cars of yesterday were more fit to be on a drag strip and not on a high speed highway like the autobahn. It doesn't give me a secure feeling hanging on to the spagetti thin steering wheel at 140 mph and hoping to not make any sudden lane changes. This old Dodge isn't a Grand Tourer for sure.
Love or hate the americans (i'm in the first) but what theater, what drama. Even though this car is hopeless in every way i love it:-) the guy driving even has '60 hair and big rings on his fingers - love it.
OHHHH that grumbly noise just makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up! This is proper muscle, I would love to have the pleasure of driving one, I couldnt afford to own one :(.
European Vanishing Point!!!!!! Good job Kowalsky!!!!!! Is this Challenger R/T 426 Hemi? with manual gear Hurst "Pistol grip"? I would like to have a CHALLENER like yhour!!!!! It's my dream car!!!!!!
Impressive. Shows that ole big block can raise the dial without hesitation. I have a '73 Roadrunner so I know how fun these machines are to drive. Keep that car up and don't be afraid to show them muscles!
Sorry im not trying to be insulting forgive me if it sounds that way just thought differently! Cool car man im a Ford Mustang driver myself but love all even Mopars lol cheers Pale Rider *-*
@66PaleRider walkarounds are the worse videos!! No matter how good the car sounds, there is always some stupid song overbearing the car's engine. Do you have a walkaround video for this car? LOL
@66PaleRider At least you have this video over 4 minutes long showing a Challenger in a way it was never really intended to be used--high speed driving up to 140 mph--most of the people who post videos of their walkarounds seem to continue only posting walkaround videos, or videos of their car doing burnouts. This video is very awesome, and allows you to shoot walkaround videos--but you will have to post more Autobahn top speed videos several minutes in length as punishment!! LOL
And I sure will after I've done some experimenting with camera position (to get rid off this optical illusion of driving 'slow' and experimenting with mic position to prevent this overmodulated sound.
btw: 'over 4 minutes long', 4:40 to be precise ;-)
If YouTube would show tenth of seconds I would have to make it 4:40.6
@culcun Actually, High speed driving is exactly what this car was designed for, Richard Petty won several Nascar championships in a car very similar to that one, those cars are designed for hours of high speed driving. A slightly modified version of this car was the first to go over 200 mph in a nascar race, it was so fast that nascar had to change thier rules so that cars couldn't go as fast
You're thinking of the Charger for the Nascar racing. It was the Charger Daytona with the drooped nose and huge rear wing that was the first to crack the 200 Mph barrier in a closed circuit (technically they were "testing the transmission" that day.
The Challenger did race, but only in the TransAm circuit.
niiiiice !
was doing 120mp/h on the freeway a while back to,
Was surprised how stable my car felt
Nice to see another drive these cars !

Impressive. Shows that ole big block can raise the dial without hesitation. I have a '73 Roadrunner so I know how fun these machines are to drive. Keep that car up and don't be afraid to show them muscles!

Sorry im not trying to be insulting forgive me if it sounds that way just thought differently! Cool car man im a Ford Mustang driver myself but love all even Mopars lol cheers Pale Rider *-*

No worries.
We live in a civilized and free world, so these kind of discussions should be possible without the strong language that you see all too often on YT.
I invite you to make a video of your car doing 130mph, so we and the rest of YTers can judge if there's a big difference ;-)
I love old musclecars and I wish there were more videos with high speed driving in stead of burnouts, or worse, a walk around the car.
66PaleRider 2 years ago
@66PaleRider walkarounds are the worse videos!! No matter how good the car sounds, there is always some stupid song overbearing the car's engine. Do you have a walkaround video for this car? LOL

Unfortunately I do, he says ashamed ;-)
But it had a special purpose; to compare the '70 with the '08
Look in my Challenger playlist, it's called 'Size Matters?'
66PaleRider 1 year ago
@66PaleRider At least you have this video over 4 minutes long showing a Challenger in a way it was never really intended to be used--high speed driving up to 140 mph--most of the people who post videos of their walkarounds seem to continue only posting walkaround videos, or videos of their car doing burnouts. This video is very awesome, and allows you to shoot walkaround videos--but you will have to post more Autobahn top speed videos several minutes in length as punishment!! LOL

@culcun
lol :-)
You're rite, I owe that to the community.
And I sure will after I've done some experimenting with camera position (to get rid off this optical illusion of driving 'slow' and experimenting with mic position to prevent this overmodulated sound.
btw: 'over 4 minutes long', 4:40 to be precise ;-)
If YouTube would show tenth of seconds I would have to make it 4:40.6

@66PaleRider Good thing your engine isn't a 383--I couldn't imagine what kind of time that would look like?!

@culcun Actually, High speed driving is exactly what this car was designed for, Richard Petty won several Nascar championships in a car very similar to that one, those cars are designed for hours of high speed driving. A slightly modified version of this car was the first to go over 200 mph in a nascar race, it was so fast that nascar had to change thier rules so that cars couldn't go as fast

@stupidjonny
You're thinking of the Charger for the Nascar racing. It was the Charger Daytona with the drooped nose and huge rear wing that was the first to crack the 200 Mph barrier in a closed circuit (technically they were "testing the transmission" that day.
The Challenger did race, but only in the TransAm circuit.

I have done 130 in my car and thats not 130mph
al1302s 2 years ago
Well, everybody has his own truth.
I know that my speedo is correct .
If you feel comfortable with the thought that I'm not driving 130mph, fine with me.
66PaleRider 2 years ago
@al1302s 130 mph does not look very fast on video
