RE: SKITTLES????
Since we are on the subject, I had a little talk with some friends the other day. Since the Srt-4 is a dodge and has Mopar upgrades is it technically American muscle? Not in the sense of a huge V8, but it is American and those skittles do have some biceps.

RE: SKITTLES????
Skittles are pretty quick with a few mods,bad *** with more and horribly fast with a big turbo kit...light,cheap and easy to mod.I should know..I have one lol and switching to a GT here in April if everything follows through.
I thought about going big turbo but the thought of intense wheel hop with 400+ whp freaks me out,not to mention they resemble tin cans in a wreck.PLus with the money to make the skittle quick it's gonna cost about the same as a boosted GT...but with traction and a bigger total number to boot,not sure what the skittle holds but with a built block it's like 5-550+whp...FWD[:'(]HP lol.
It's faster then **** but not good if you just want something to cruise in or a daily driver..it's too easy to drive too fast or race it daily..it's soo light and nimble that 300hp feels and reacts like a lot more. Kinda scary that it's marketed to the younger crowd though..it's a dangerous car in the wrong hands,alot of kids have wrecked and killed themselves doing dumb shiet..
its fast ...

SRT's no doubt can be fast... I leased/owned a Neon for 7 years b4 my career picked up.... I never once said they weren't fast... IMO I dont car for the newer looking SRTs... my view and my view only.....maybe we'll bump into each other at Atco one day..... and u can try to hand me that bad looking loss

...I've answered this question a million times so I guess answering it again wont kill me. I come to this forum Because I Like It Here!!! The regulars are all great guys. I do almost all of my racing at a drag strip so this seams like the perfect place to hang out with like minded people and share track tech info.
