Every Tuesday, Dodge.com will post a horsepower-inspired question in multiple choice form. The first weekly "Dodge Horsepower Challenge" will be announced by professional wrestler Bill Goldberg for challengers to win one sweet Challenger. Each Tuesday, Goldberg will announce the question starting at 8 a.m. ET, and the question will remain through Monday until 11:59 p.m. The answer to the week's question can be found on Dodge.com (following Tuesday) a week after its release at 8 a.m.

The challenge offers one clue per day, and this comes in the form of hidden hashtags within an image. The clues will be posted in Dodge's Twitter and Instagram social channels to help with the week's question. You must answer one of the weekly multiple choice questions correctly to be eligible to win the Challenger.

Pound sign was what the judge gave me before sentencing.

Can't find the hashtags in all of the acid-trip BS on the Twitter/Instagram sites.

How the hell does anyone navigate that?!

I don't need anyone to tell me the hashtag, just how to find it.

I don't use any of that crap. I just went and spent 10 minutes trying to find something...anything.... by clicking on all of the various hashtags i saw in the twitter thing. I got nowhere, and after that 10 minutes....I give up....I don't care.....I hope one of you is very happy with your new Redeye. I wish I had paid more attention in Physics class to what the teacher was teaching instead of the girl sitting across from me because then I would remember how to solve this. Either some math wizz...or a 12 year old is going to win this if all the questions are like this and you have to search on these two media platforms for hashtags. I can tell you that I'm not going to waste 1 more minute on it. I'll be happy with my 1320.

I took a stab at it, to got the wrong answer, I figured that acceleration that they gave was on the path but you have to correct for the incline using the vector addition (hint you use gravity's acceleration constant for the Y axis). I didn't read carefully enough lol just assumed they gave extra info bc the way it was worded sounded like they gav you the acceleration of the car on the incline....but they mean X direction as it turns out. Oh well.....I do know how to solve the damn thing it just was the they worded it and I ended up calculating the time wrong.

Lol maybe next week....

Ok...so you forgot to calculate correctly the first time. now you know what you did wrong. Go back...figure it out correctly...PM me the correct answer...I'll submit it....and we'll split custody of the car if I win.

So the implication is that one of the answers exactly matched the non-vector assumption?

From a pure velocity standpoint, it has to be greater than 3.67min (3600/17.73399*12.42)

I don’t do hashtags but entered anyway. Got the correct answer to week 1...for what it’s worth.

I don't care, from reading through the rules of the sweepstakes at length, it looks like you don't even have to have the correct answer to be selected randomly to win.....so we'll see what happens lol It clearly states that you are disqualified for multiple entries for the same person....so I guess I can't use my other email addresses to create another submission.....:eek:

Next week though, I am going to make sure I read whatever b.s. physics 1 problem wording more closely so I don't miss something. :cool:

Also, be aware that this is almost certainly taxable income...

$97,000 * XX = Uncle Sam's pocket

XX = your taxrate (likely to jump up from a ~$100K increase over your typical yearly income...


My guess is $30K in taxes????


:eek:

If you enter an incorrect hashtag, are you done, or can you try again?
