I thought all SRT's were brought down from heaven by Christ himself and ran mid 12's off the showroom floor and were invincible.
:wink2:
GRRRR8 07-06-2008, 01:33 PM Oh man, you went and did it now! The server is for sure to crash. Shhhhhhhh. We do not talk about anything that has SRT-8 emblems on it. OR ELSE LOL
Wm Holden 07-06-2008, 01:54 PM Oh man, you went and did it now! The server is for sure to crash. Shhhhhhhh. We do not talk about anything that has SRT-8 emblems on it. OR ELSE LOL
I don't think so...I put it on digg and it died....but I sure like it..LOL!!!:judge:
GRRRR8 07-06-2008, 02:00 PM LMAO! We are not going to get to many X-mas cards with these antics.
Wm Holden 07-06-2008, 02:09 PM Christmas is over rated...and drag racing is under-rated..LOL!!
GRRRR8 07-06-2008, 03:08 PM True dat.
Wm Holden 07-06-2008, 04:04 PM "What would you like for christmas young man"?
Me: "a 10 second timeslip sir"
GRRRR8 07-06-2008, 04:13 PM Ask him for 2, cause I aint sitting on his lap! lol
Russo 07-06-2008, 04:30 PM challenger driver cannot...
quitplayn 07-06-2008, 04:53 PM Not a good race.
kewlv8 07-06-2008, 05:11 PM challenger driver cannot...
Actually, the driver did pretty fair for a fresh car (stock, not broken in). Remember, the GTO was heavily modded, and edged him out by .38sec and 2MPH?
GRRRR8 07-06-2008, 05:15 PM Modded, not "heavily" modded. Heavily modded GTOs run low12s or in the 11s. If you are a GTO guy it is basic bolt-ons. If you are in a MOPAR and behind the GTO it is heavily modded. LOL
Wm Holden 07-06-2008, 05:29 PM Ask him for 2, cause I aint sitting on his lap! lol
HMMMMM.........ok....I'll take one for the team.
But next year it's all you.:judge::drink::whine::slap:
GRRRR8 07-06-2008, 05:33 PM Every other year I celebrate Hanukkah. But I really appreciate you "takin" 1 for the team. LOL
GeorgeInNePa 07-06-2008, 06:14 PM Actually, the driver did pretty fair for a fresh car (stock, not broken in). Remember, the GTO was heavily modded, and edged him out by .38sec and 2MPH?
To be fair, some people have posted on other threads insisting that 2mph is huge, when it's the other way around.
Just sayin'...
:wink2:
rushhour 07-07-2008, 02:30 PM Very nice!

foreosu 07-07-2008, 04:04 PM Bad.... Ass. Thanks for posting the video
VENOM 07-07-2008, 06:44 PM wow, did he fall asleep at the light? His RT must have been 1.000 lol. 13.49 is nothing to brag about in a Dodge Challeneger. I thought they would be faster. Hell, intake and exhaust and we will be running low 13's lol
and his car cost couple thousand more too
ChipC 07-07-2008, 06:57 PM and his car cost couple thousand more too
I thought we were told that didn't matter...:wall:

Once some good drivers get enough seat time with them, figure out where to eliminate the heat soak and launch the car they will probably be down in the 13.2-13.30 area with the ATCO cars going 12.9 (predictions ofcoruse).
BUT
Mostly you will see runs from the 13.50-13.90 range from the inexperienced just like many many many did I say many? LS2 GTOs still run today.

sounds about right.:judge:
Shaffe 07-31-2008, 11:46 AM i see many LS2 GTOs with the 6M not breaking into the 13s.
Wm Holden 07-31-2008, 12:50 PM 14.1 my first run ever
JAWDRPNG8 08-03-2008, 01:23 PM i BET the challengers owners where thinking the same that we where....
not as fast as promoted..good to know I have a chance on the street with these!
tgb321 08-03-2008, 01:31 PM The heck with the challenger, have you seen the car it's huge. The Camaro costs thousands less and looks way better, and it's lighter and has a better chassis. :hail: CAMARO.
johnh 08-12-2008, 09:51 AM "Thousands more for the challenger?"
More like tens of thousands...
MSRP nearly 10g more, before Challenger Markup (usually around 5-8k more).
I crushed a Challenger with my 2002 TA (CAI, Exhaust, 3.73s that's it!), had almost 2 cars on him by 65mph.
They just aren't that quick...gotta be running low 13s otherwise the SRT8s gonna look bad compared to GXP, Camaro SS etc.
Wm Holden 08-22-2008, 01:38 PM Check out your competition guys...
Shaffe 08-22-2008, 02:56 PM saw a bolt on challenger run 13.00 thise last weekend
kewlv8 08-22-2008, 03:46 PM saw a bolt on challenger run 13.00 thise last weekend
That sounds about right. The biggest bang-for-the-buck mod is the tune for the SRT-8's via handheld tuner. They already breathe pretty good from the factory. Other mods are just for sound effect :).
