Default SRT 8 Charger vs. 05 Mustang GT

Quick Story...

Deushe cuts me off in the charger SRT 8. Tries taking off but I stay right on him and I have to let off the gas so I don't get too close. Guessing no cats cause of black smoke from the exhaust.

Coming up to a red light I get in the middle lane to run him. It was a pretty big intersection so I didn't wanna launch in case there were any cops around, but the guy in the SRT launched right off the line.

He had a good quarter car til I was able to put it all the way down so I didn't spin out, and then by the time I was shifting into third I had a car and a half on him. Best thing was he was gonna try to cut me off again because his lane ended.

Guessing the giant rims maybe made him quite a bit slower, thought it would be a closer race because my car doesn't seem to be running great to me right now.

Cliff Notes: Jerk cuts me off. Tries to show me up and cut me off again and gets worked...

The SRT8 makes a lot of power but the charger is very heavy. Im not surprised you beat him. Any Track times on your car?

nice one.. hehe.. I like being able to do that to people who are driving like jerks I love it when someone is speeding around dodging in and out of traffic after passing me and then i get next to them at a light anyway.. always makes me laugh.. almost as much as when i see them pulled over (I don't really ever speed.. unless i street race.. which has been like 6 times in 2.5 years)
