Funny thing is i have raced a total of 5-6 R/t's and never lost once. Im NOT calling you a liar, i just think its funny that i've never lost to an RT and you never lost to a GT. BTW i only have intake/tune and offroad H.

Aren't you the guy that's never lost period? Or is that another S197 owner? I get you guys confused. Nice dubs btw, and "pin on" hood. Love the scoops, do those add 20rwhp like a ram air hood?

Soooo, wtf is this thread about again?


Bottom line fellas, a stock SRT-8 will embarrass a stock S197, just like a stock S197 will embarrass a stock R/T. It doesn't matter how many of you guys beat whatever car. When PROPERLY driven by someone who knows wtf they're doing, it stacks up exactly like I've listed, end of story. Talking mod for mod, and/or who drove better, is doing nothing more than pissing into the wind.

SRT-8>S197>R/T

I dont doubt that you beat the intake and catback GT because hes stupid for not getting a tune and those mods arent doing crap for him. Ford racing GT, never heard of that . It might be a ffrp intake and ffrp tune, which kinda sucks.

What mods do you have?
All I know is he popped his hood, it had a big *** intake that I think said Ford Racing on it, it has "ford racing suspension" he said and it had 3.73 gears in it. He paid 40k for it, yeah, he got raped. It did have some extra stuff on it though, but nothing worth the extra 10k or so.

You won that race, it's cool. But, a S197 GT with a competent driver will beat a good driver in an R/T 9 times out of 10 both being stock.

Like mentioned earlier, the intake without the tune would HURT in the long run.
Yeah

After 17 pages I still don't get how a stock GT is going to consistently win over a stock R/T.

Someone 'splain please. People on the chally forums have done mid to lower 13s with them. Leastways with the newer ones they have.

I don't know what the deal is with the Chally R/Ts being able to run those times. I should've been more specific in my last post and excluded them. I was referring more to the older R/Ts, being the 2008 and older Chargers, 300s, etc.

Yeah the 340hp ones would probably be more likely to lose on a consistent basis. The newer 370hp models OTOH.. a driver's race.

So happens that i seen him again at the car meet last night and we just got a video camera. So, i will be posting that video and a few other races last night in a new thread. My camera man SUCKED, but you can still see some of it.
