We didn't tie, on lost on both runs. On the first run he pulled as i maxed out 3rd gear and i stayed in 3rd way too long, probally didn't make a huge difference though. Also, traffic came up as I started to rev up fourth, so this run was hard too judge. Second run im in 3rd again going 75mph, I actually wait for him to start to pull as he did the first time and right as hegot next to me Im@ 5000rpms in 3rd, go to shift and miss fourth gear. I know I still probally would of lost but I am so pissed we didn't get to do the second run with no traffic for like 150 yards.

I hate the fact that cars such as the neon and eclispe have a slight advantage over my 5.0. When i used to have my 2001 Gt that wasn't the case I had plenty more power than these cars.
emmmm, No you didn't!

To the OP you have one of the best cars on the planet if you want to mod that crap out of it and take on all!
He did have more power stock vs. stock but he also had much more weight. The kid in the SRT sounds like a bad driver, you shouldn't be able to tie with one especially from a roll in a stock 5.0.
I knew there was some physics involved in racing[8D]
