Killed an SRT-6

**SS/CETA** · 01-08-2008, 05:09 PM

So, I'm at a stop light in downtown Branson with my windows up and stereo pumping out those sweet 80's tunes I love, when I faintly hear what I initially think to be someone starting a weed eater. Lo and behold, I look beside me and there's this guy with his 10 year old boy in this Chrysler jelly bean. Well, the kid is staring me down (I'm in the right-hand lane) and finally gives me the "let's race" wave. The light turns green and.......nothing...No high-revs, no squalling tires. Nothing. The kid was messing with me! He was messing with me until we got to 30, however, I wasn't privy to this and daddy tried to run off and leave me AFTER his kid hyped up a full-on stoplight drag! Dad gooses it and I play 2-second catch up and blow his doors off like I was racing a stock Civic. I look over as I'm passing and dad is trying to down shift to compensate for his failed sneak attack. I win with about three cars lengths on him and at the next stop light daddy just concedes defeat and waves me on.

Good kill, but the whole "dad/daddy" thing sounds a little stupid.

Good kill...those cars run low 13s trapping around 108 factory

Thanks. And I recognize the "daddy" thing sounds stupid, that's why I implied it so many times. Not once have I ever raced any vehicle that was occupied by a father/child combo, so it struck me a tad weird, too. But thanks for keeping me on the up and up with what's e-cool.

no prob man, sorta stupid to race with a kid in the car anyway.

**SS/CETA** · 01-09-2008, 03:52 PM

It's really dumb to race with a kid in the car.

On paper a Crossfire looks good. Don't think I've ever seen an SRT6 on the road but they are pretty cool for what they are.

i really like the srt line up i could find myself owning just about any one of those vehicles if i had the money.

**T/A Barracus** · 02-06-2008, 07:27 AM

What mods do you have you done to your WS6?
I own both a 2001 WS6 and an SRT-6 as a daily driver and I ran a 13.2 at 107.8 in my LS1 with a lid and a cutout and 13.3 at 108 in my SRT-6. So it should be a good match up. I've never actually raced another LS1 in my SRT-6 but I did edge out an E46 M3. (1/2 car length)

The main problem with the SRT-6 is that the throttle response & tranny sucks and with no manual offered. If the SRT-6 had better throttle response and tranny it would easily run mid to high 12's.

The car came to me with a few things I can see, but internally I'm not sure what's been done to it. Check my sig. I also have a lid and a shift kit. I wish I could get a hold of the guy that did the mods, because I'm cooking my buddy's M6 Z 0-60 every time we go at it.
