so my brother has a 2005(i think) Crossfire and he is ussually really up tight and i always joke with him, saying lets race and stuff, but tonight was different
we had some familly over we were agruing over whether he had the 300+ hp model or the 215hp one, i said the SRT is the only one with 300+hp and he said his the deluxe or some crap like that and that his car would smoke mine since he has sooo much more hp...


so we drove about 15min. into the country and lined up, after three honks we took off, we floored it and i had terrible traction, burned my tires for like 30ft., but after that i just killed him, by 80mph i had him by atleast 4 car lengths, i thought it would be a close race but apearently not, but atleast now we know what model he has

 

Crossfires look alot faster than they are. Not impressed by them at all. Nice kill.

 

Nice kill. I never liked the crossfires. The SRT models were fairly fast but the odds of running into one on the street are almost zero.

 

yeah lots of people who dont know anything about cars, always think ill get burnt
i though it would be closer though since his car only weighs 2,900lbs

 

those things are just begging for an LS1

 

I hope they handle really well because they look like crap, and they perform terribly, at least from a straight line perspective. My friend has one and everyone thinks its so fast, I don't understand why.

 

That's what I've heard...in hindsight I believe I did run into an SRT-8near Chicago a few months back.. the lower end model would have been bus lengths behind me instead of a mere car or 2 back....

 

aren't they srt-6's?

I thought they had high output v6 in them butI could be wrong

 

Thats correct. They were the only SRT car with a 6 cylinder in itto date.

 

It's supercharged.
