I wanted to send some updated pictures and
information of my 13:00 second hyper-pak powered Dodge Dart Swinger. It
was built by several kids that are fighting cancer here in the
Washington, DC area. It took 1-1/2 years and over 1,000 labor hours to
build the dart the way it is here. We collected used parts from area
mopar recycling yards to save some money so we could build the motor,
transmission and rear axle so the dart would be capable of 12-13 second
quarter mile times.

with the 4:56 gears and 150 hp shot has put the hyper-pak dart into the
high 12's. This is my only car and is my everyday driver that spins 4:10
gears for daily driving chores. During the cold winter months a portable
heater and snow tires are mounted back on for winter driving duties. The
Dart has logged over 10,000 miles already and just completed the trip to
Chrysler At Carlisle in PA. Getting 12 miles to the gallon and burning
over 110 gallons of fuel for the road trip. Me and the kids hope you
enjoy the pictures :)
