Screw you, tyres!

Remember the Dodge Challenger SRT10 that turned up at the SEMA show? The muscle icon stuffed with the 8.4-litre, 600bhp V10 out the Viper?

Difficult to forget, huh? Well, we’ve got a video of it moving and driving and exciting things like that. Look. Just down there. In the video bit under the writing bit.

In truth, most of the video’s a bit boring, but there are a few moments well worth watching. The start, for a start: the bit with the big burnout where the Challenger turns a shiny new set of tyres into smoke.

Then skip through to about 2:30 for another impressive bit of rubber destruction, and then on to 4:30 to listen to that monster V10 shaking the entire Challenger by its foundations.

And now imagine the fuel bills. Actually, don’t do that. Just watch the burnout bit at the start again. Do that.
