Default How fast are the SRT8s

I raced one the other day and I pulled pretty decently. All i have for mods is intake/tune, 4.10s and an axle back. We went twice and i pulled on him both times. once from like 60 and the other at 40. I was very surprised in the outcome considering they have 425 crank hp out of the box. He did have one more passenger then me that i could see and it was hot so he may have had the ac on but still he should have turned that off. What are those things running at the track? For $46k or w/e they go for that is not a car id be buying after that poor performance. Thats alot of money you could be putting into a GT.

Theye are suposed to be running prety close 1/4 times as us stock, but I haven't seen that in the real world. Even if they came 600 rwhp out of the factory, I have to much self respect to ever be caught dead in that fart can riced up neon.

But the SRT8's sre suposedly running better times. Don't think there are too many at the track though.

The 425 horse ones were only turning 14's? Hell 6.0 powerstrokes with 450 Flywheel horsepower turns those numbers weighing 7500+pounds, lol

hahaha well i just checked out the car and driver and they tested it out at 13.1 in stock trim. I guess if you want a boat with some power you buy one of these. I guess my next goal is to beat a new c6. I think i might need 75 shot of the funny stuff to do that tho.
