Default My car vs something with 425ponies

Hey guys..

I Just raced a car that made my day.. and I tell u im glad I RACED HIM

its a 2006 chrysler SRT8.....

well I was driving really slow and this speed bump came so I noticed a black car coming from behind so after the speed bump we hit it.. 1st gear we stayed together.. second I just jumped half a meter infront then When shifting to third his front end was near my doors.. so I slowed down because of traffic...

we then came up to this other speed bump and then we hit it... he hit it first so first we were together, second we were still together but before shifting to third I was leaving him when I shifted to third I just left his front end with my doors but this time a little behind.. so we slowed down and then came this traffic light.

after the traffic light went green we took left I shifted to second and killed our pedals I was taking off then he suddenly slowed down so then I was infront and put it on 4th to rest my car.. so I saw him coming fast from behind so I downshifted to 3rd and BAMMM!!! slammed my pedals we stayed together but I started taking off and then shifted to 4th he was half a cars length behind me.. and I was still taking off even faster and faster..

So I had to talk to this guy... My first question was ' Is this a real SRT8 ? ' he said yeah it is I said those things are fast.. he said yeah but ur car is faster mashalah.. ( a word we say in arabic ) lol.. anyway I told him got ne thing under the hood ? he said no and u ? I said naah Just a custome tune .. hehe he didnt know I had 4.10's and lca and uca's .... I am sooo freakin happy that I got my mustang.. Just when I thought the mustangs days of power are over I smoked and srt8... all that is left is a C6 now.. hehe

and after the the june mds im going to make I doubt any srt will see me... ( no supercharger) just a little cooking will be done under the hood..

Very nice kill. People will try to say that SRT-8's can't be killed with a GT mustang, but it can be done. I've taken out a SRT-8 Charger and SRT-8 Cherokee. Now just need a 300C to come my way to complete the trifecta. Very nice kill though. Gotta love them gears!!!!

I took out a lightly modded srt8 charger at the track. He came up to me and asked if i wanted to run him. He had 1 7/8 longtube headers with cats and a catback exhaust. It was a tight race but i got the win light.

Yeah, the SRT-8s have a lot of engine, but you have two major advantages on him: Your car is a lot lighter, and you have gears (and other mods of course).

Congrats!

How much do those things weigh? They look pretty bloated.

Good kill

They weigh in excess of 4,000lbs, and that's without driver if I'm not mistaken.
