Atlanta based SpeedFactory has set a new record with their 426 Charger, that  completed the quarter mile in 9.453 seconds with a speed of 145.38 mph at South Georgia Motorsports Park.

This is the fastest time for a production LX/LC-platform cars- modern Dodge Chargers, Challengers, Magnums and Chrysler 300Cs.

The car is based on the 2006 Dodge Charger and was built in collaboration with Landmark Dodge Chrysler Jeep, Vortech Superchargers and Paramount Performance.

A GEN III 426 HEMI stroker motor is boosted by a Vortech centrifugal-style V-7 YSi-trim supercharger and is controlled through factory electronics, producing over 900 HP. The car retains modified factory components: transmission, IRS differential with 1000HP half shafts, suspension and shocks. A curb weight of 3,750 pounds was achieved by removing the interior.

“The Vortech V-7 YSi-trim supercharger supports up to 1200HP with 78 percent efficiency,” said Gil Cormaci, director, sales and marketing for Vortech Engineering. “We are very pleased to be associated with SpeedFactory and Landmark Dodge Chrysler Jeep. The application of our YSi-trim compressor to this HEMI Charger was done with the highest expertise, resulting in this impressive time and speed.”
