    SRT8 (?)
    « on: October 21, 2010 - 03:01:51 PM »
    Just bought a 2009 SRT8 Challenger, I was wondering, what the SRT8 stood for.  I assumed the SRT was        S = sport
    R = Road
    T = Track
    8 = ???

    I am sure it is probably something simple  :clueless:

    8 cylinder, I think.

    SRT stands for Street and Race Technology, and the 8 designates the number of engine cylinders.

    Thanks! I did not know that.  I assumed the RT was from the RT of old + road and Track!

    Go to St louis craigs list, Type in 2008 Challenger, scroll down to Oct 8 it is listed as SRT8 dealer, Granite City.  The pic now has a sold sign in front of it. :bananasmi
