    though it's a pretty useful site but I would suggest that more words with their uses should be presented here so that the words may last for a longer time in the mind.

    The “R/T” label, which is short for “Road” and “Track”, refers to the engine quality that is being attached to the Dodge vehicle. When an “R/T” label is attached to a Dodge car model, it means that it has the 375 horsepower 440 Magnum V8 engine, with the corresponding heavy duty suspension, tough tires, and improved cooling system.
