The Dodge Challenger SRT-10 Concept Is Stunner

Each year at the SEMA (Specialty Equipment Manufactures Association) trade show, there’s one car that every tuner has in their booth. The 300C, Lexus LS, and Mustang have all worn the crown. But this year’s show, which wrapped up last week, belonged to Dodge’s retro rebirth, the Challenger. And we see why. The Challenger is the hottest car to come out of Chrysler since the 300C. We already saw rappers'T.I., Juelz'drop ducats to get one in their driveways before everyone else. And the one Challenger that stood out from the rest this year was the SRT-10 concept that made its debut.

Stuffed with the Vipers potent 600hp 8.4L V10 engine, the SRT-10 concept got a complete makeover with a functional ram air scoop upfront to feed the beast underneath, carbon fiber hood, trunk and front lips. They also threw in Blistein shocks to help all that extra power maneuver along with bigger wheels and brakes. We have no doubt it would be a beast on the street, but don’t take our word for it. Check out this new video of the SRT-10 Concept burning rubber along with some shots from SEMA below…

Concept Hummer Can Take On A Tank

Regardless of how today’s insane gas prices have left the Hummer an endangered species of SUV, it seems as though some engineers are focused on reinventing the 4 x 4. This tank-like twist on the original gas guzzler crawled into the 2008 SEMA auto show in Las Vegas, and immediately turned heads.

Similar to the all-terrain rubber tracks on snowmobiles, this concept H2T seems to apply the tire-to-tread conversion system (usually called Mattracks) that is commonly seen in off-road vehicles. Sure there’s no real improvement to the vehicle’s speed, but if you’re looking to push the truck that has the biggest balls on the road, keep tabs on the production of this beast. See more photos of the crawler below.
