Yes, its the December issue. (The one with the 1100hp Viper on
the cover) In the same issue, they have a 500hp Neon that they
estimate should run mid 10s. (Its only been run in the 1/8 so far.)
(I haven't read that article yet though.)
Dak content: Its also the issue where they talk about the "Killer Bee"
Dakota which is a 13 second Kenne Bell supercharged Dakota R/T that you
can order right from your dodge dealer. (All parts warrantied by
Dodge except for the blower which is warrantied by someone else for
3 years or so.) I haven't read that article yet either though,
I just skimmed it. I think they said it adds about $10K to the price
of a base R/T. (It includes new rims, graphics, and stuff like that
too.)
