had a guy get right up on my ass last night on 4-96, then he passed me and started whippin in and out of traffic.. i gave him a casual chase and took his exit.... we ended up on lansing road heading toward the new GM delta plant i work at... if anyones familar with lansing.... we were lucky enough to catch 2 red lights side by side.... the result was me having a 2 car lead by the other side of the intersection:drivin: and him tryin liek hell to catch me... i ran him up to 90 and relized he was falling back with no chance of gaining so i let up so i could give him the "you jsut got your ass kicked stare".... i will give him credit that car had some roll on power on the expressway at 70.... o well had fun last night....
anyone else fucked with an srt-4 and if so same result???

I raced one once... he was racing an LT1 on the highway...and getting his butt whooped so I decided to give chace and pass him...and caught the LT1...then got off onto the road to my house...and the SRT4 was bothering me...until we got a redlight... long story short...I was turning around just as he finally caught up to me... :Poke:

Yeah a kid I knew in elementry school through high school had a orange one and everyone I knew said that it was fast as hell...I had my T/A for a few months so at the time no mods, but im coming home from the g/fs house and sitting at the light is his car...Light turns green and we start to roll through the intersection and then he hits it...His BOV sounded amazing but that only lasted for a sec cuz I pulled on him and we only made it to 60 them he slmas on his breaks and turns....Well thats the best I have got with a skittle...

I see one every once in a while on my way to work, and I mess with him from time to time. He has some loud fart cans but I don't know what else done. We both have to turn left at this one light and if I am behind him, he always guns it before I can get around the turn, but I reel him in pretty quick. If I go first, I wait for him and he always tries to run with me, but I slap his peepee everytime. I get out of it when we hit some traffic, but he's one of those punk kids that likes to race in traffic, weaving in and out and slamming on his brakes when his lane slows down. Typical ricer behavior. I know it's debatable whether an SRT-4 is rice, but if your car sounds like it needs some Beano and you do the "ricer fly-by" then it's rice to me. Bunch of Paul Walker wanna be bastards!

I finally ran with that kid on my way to work this morning. We were coming out of a school zone side by side, so from a 20 roll he guns it. When I saw I was next to him going in to the school zone, I turned my traction control off, just in case. As soon as I heard his fart cans get louder, I punched it and we were off. It was closer than I thought at first, I was pulling inches on him till about 60 and then at the end of 3rd and into 4th I was opening lengths on him. I don't know if those SRT's have loud ass blow off valves like he had, but after every shift his car would go PSST! It was quick, but I'll keep my car. :drivin:

if they get the rpms up and the turbo spooled they are pretty quick!! if you got a stick and arnt in the right gear on the expressway when they hit the gas, they will pull till you hit your power band then you can reel them back in...

i try not to follow someone down the expressway at 4000 rpms, you never no if there gonna jet or jsut let ya pass and not want any trouble...... i wait for them to jump on it then shift to my "take of gear" depending on speed... and liek i sed that is when they tend to pull is during that fraction of a second..... so go F yerself...:bat:

So I'm the only one that's lost to srt-4's or is everyone lying?
This one dude I know has like every mod except a bigger turbo. He has one now, just needs to put it in, and i'm sure he'll beat me.
40 roll - he won, i was new to my car and i know now just to leave it in D and mash the gas.
dig - i won easily
30 roll - even till he missed 5th gear at 140.
His buddies have srt-4's as well and one of em left two strips of black half a block long on DR's. He had 4 people in the car when I was messing with him and we were even most of the way. That's like an extra 550lbs.
None of these have the fart can's either, and i just love listening to their turbos...i have full exhaust btw.

Ive lost to my brothers car, he has a 05 ACR with a 50 trim swap/fuel system/dtec/custom tune etc......he KILLED me from a roll...a dig is usually a loss for them due to traction issues...that was me with LT's and N20 (100 shot wet plate)...havent raced him since the cam swap :firedevil:

High HP skittles on the street from a dig= See ya Neon. High HP skittles from a roll= Holy shit was that a Neon? I knew a guy with one that put like 500+ to the ground. From anything over a 60 MPH roll hed smoke many a car from a dig he wouldn't even try.

thats pretty much where my brother is at right now...from a roll, deadly...he doesnt even like racing from a dig at all..he had some hoosier QT's on it but it required some muscle to keep it aimed away from the curb....after his pump gas tune (keep in mind 91 CA octane sux) he made 379hp 387tq with 25 psi and a 12.9 A/F...

Yea I hear them talking about a/f ratios all the time..i'm not sure what it all means but i guess a constant 12.5 is good.

Where are you finding all these slow SRT-4s? Everyone around here is modded up pretty good. Not all of them are slow from a stop, but most are. It's spin city. Also, turbo guys tune for 11.5 afr. Any higher is a big risk.

Around here...on thursdays...theres a Get Together thing..."FIEBRE"... basicly a show and shine...but everyone just really wants to race... and there's a Group of SRT-4's... they line up from Slowest to fastest...and wait till people walk up wanting to challange...I heard rummers(spelling?) that the fastest was built up to 800hp...they only race highway... and are apparently undefeated in the street so far... :moon:
and in the Track it's not uncomon to see at least 2 or 3 500hp SRT-4's on Slicks... tearing new ones into unsuspecting cars....
I like them...if they wheren't MOPAR and FWD:nono:...I'd probably like to own one

Yeah. I wouldn't want the SRT to be my fast car. That would suck; mostly because of the FWD. It's a great beater/daily driver though. What's funny though is that with my mods it is faster than most v8s on the road.
I am hearing rumors that GM is going turbo with the motor that is in the Cobalt. I don't know why they haven't already, that block can support alot of power. I just wish they would go RWD like the Sky/Solstice.

I raced one a while back, took him by a car till around eighty. He pulls up next to me and said "not bad for a 4 banger", I said, " yeah, I missed 3rd" :lmao:
