miss is correct about the 4 speed instead of a the 5 speed thing. however, i seriously doubt that there is such a discrepancy in weight between the cars (although i know nothing about yelow jaket's car). the duster/demon line was chrysler's compact offering.

i suspect the duster owner hopped up the engine if they are the type interested in street racing/racing. it is the perfect opportunity to mod, and often times performance parts are better "value" than replacement parts on older cars

the only way to tell is to run him. older cars aren't always predictable......i wouldn't be surprised to see the duster be a 15 second car, nor would i be surprised to learn it is an 11 second ride
