Mike Skeen: 180 MPH at Road America in a Dodge Challenger

Take a ride at Road America in a 850hp Dodge Chellenger Trans-Am/GT-1 car. This is a Weaver Racing Concepts chassis with a Dodge R5 engine and 4-speed dogbox transmission.

Passing other cars like they are standing still. Crazy.

[@vladzcortez457]

[@neilreid9005]

Now I know who Sadé made her song "Smooth Operator" for...

[@threadtapwhisperer5136]

Man, my Wisconsin born blood is racing after this!
I used to install cable out that way, would always find me killing time near the track. Aint nothing like hering the cars tearing around, or motorcycles for that matter. Killer atmosphere, food to die for, the longer I am bound to Florida, the more I pine for my home.
Even if its tits cutting glass cold maybe 8 months of the year, Wisconsin, I love ya!

Music to my ears ♥

[@Maverick9k]

I had no idea these cars run a H-pattern gearbox, i figured they used a more sequential, V8 Supercar style gearbox.

[@MikeSkeenRacing]

Some of them now use sequential. I believe a few are paddle shift too. There’s a bit of a weight penalty, but many are starting to prefer them. This car was built a several years back.

[@apexfiend5015]

Shockingly fast. You are my hero.

[@wolfsong69]

Absolutely sublime!

[@JaredR1996]

Awesome video as always Mike 👍

[@jasperwoodcock1302]

These trans am series motors make huge power. Good grief.

[@tyleracimovic823]

The motor in this car is a Cup Series Dodge motor, I think.

[@hicadt]

so smooth!

[@dnmoscato92]

Good God this would be fun

[@Ed1974bugvw]

Wow Awesome video

[@EugVR6]

Fucking Awesome.

[@SS454LS6]

You were on pace for a 2:08.4, I suspect a proper clear qual lap would get you at least deep into the 2:07s?

[@anthonymosiejczuk8945]

👍💪

[@ProFormanceCoaching]

Get the F outta my way Ferrari! LOL!

[@durtyvegas]

Like a boss.

[@Tin_Fed]

Is that auto throttle cut and blip or is Mike doing it?

[@MikeSkeenRacing]

Brad Lewis au naturel

[@greggybone72]

Carburetor and an MSD box... only cut out or blip is at a 9200 chip.. lol

[@ivanhool7322]

Well, where are you going? What's not a milestone? You could have driven in at 2:08.7, such a lap time was good... It's a pity, of course.

[@MikeSkeenRacing]

I don’t understand what you’re saying/asking.

[@XxXDOMINIONXxX]

"Dodge Challenger" oKAAAYYYYY... LOL

[@kevinnathanson6876]

What? Not flat through the kink?
We're not really angry, just disappointed. You really need to try to apply yourself more.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@markpatterson7828]

In a Trans Am car? Not enough downforce.
