    Srt-4 calling me out

    Srt-4 owner claims to run mid 11's,I call B.S.Says he wants to race for $$$.So I called him out on it.Told him I'd race at the local strip on the next t&t.

    My car runs an honest 12.67 with 60ft. times over 2.0 on street tires.I just bought a set of M.T. e.t. streets,which should bring my 60' down.

    Mods on my car are LT's, ORY,no cats,Slp loudmouth,lid,and a tune.I think this dude is full of $hit...Personally I've never seen a srt-4 run under a 13,but you never know...You guys think he's bluffing?

    I have seen one run mid 11's, butt rare as hell. I'm with you. I'd be shocked if hes out of the 13's.

    Go with your plan and go to your local tracks t&t. You have to love the people that want to put money on the race. If he will not run without the money walk away. We have 13 and 12 second Srt-4's here. I have yet to see a 11 second Srt-4. Not saying it will not happen but your 12.6 should hold its own..

    Like all FWD cars, run him from the dig. Never look back.

    Avoid the roll race.

    No roll race.I'm going to run him at the drag strip. I set the time and place,we'll see if the mid 11 neon even shows up.

    Yes go to the track and race. SRT4s can be very fast!

    On the bottle and with some mods, I know of 2 SRT-4's that have run in the 11's routinely personally.
    If you're betting $$$$, make sure you can afford to lose it. Not saying you will, but.......good luck!

    ^^^Good advice there. Someone somewhere with any kind of car is always faster.

    He better be bringing slicks. If he shows up will any type of street tire, he should just give you the money.

    Yeah,I might win and I might lose.It's not the money I'm worried about... just think it will be worth the laugh if my mid 12's camaro with a few bolt ons beats his "11 second neon with a big turbo" as he says.He was the one talking smack to me,and I'm not backing down from a challenge from a ricer...especially one that I think is full of $hit.


    BTW...I consider a SRT-4 to be a import,even though it's a dodge.

    The race is set for the 6th of June at the dragstrip. He probably won't even show up,but if he does I'll post the result win or lose.

    Just for shits. When i had a srt-4, with just intercooler, wga, exhaust, and slicks. I was seeing high 12s all day. But i could drive the fuck out of it. More then likely you will be beating the driver.

    Yeah he says he's in the 11's with street tires....I've seen 2 cars do that in my life,a 09 cts-v and an C6 Z06.

    All the more reason I think he's full of it.

    Don't forget your 12.6 should turn into a 12.2 or 12.3 so your ET will improve w/ those ET streets.

    the only way he is running 11's is with really good slicks and some decent power. Bolt ons ive seen run mid 300's at the wheels with some slicks to me that doesnt come close to 11's even though it weighs less. To go any higher then that you'd put alot of strain on the turbo running way to high on the boost or you've done a turbo swap with some other supporting mods. To run 11's you need good suspension, tires, power and driver not so simple. With my car the way it sits even with slicks id be lucky to run mid 12's and thats with everything almost perfect.

    Are you talking about your Camaro?? Or do you own a SRT-4 as well?

    With the mods listed in your sig I would think mid 12's would be no problem for the camaro.

    I was looking at it that way too,but I ran those times last November and it was about 45 degrees at the track. I'm sure on the next run temps will be close to 80 atleast, so the temp difference will probably slow me down a bit.

    sorry lol, i meant a SRT4 running 11's is very unlikely and my car running mid 12's id be lucky. Basically long story short.

    I have had 2 friends with 11 second srt-4s both trapping high 120s. Its not hard at all to get them to make power. It really doesnt take that much money, around 5k-7k in the right mods. 400-450whp is just a turbo/fuel system/ supporting bolt ons away, stock long block.
