Default I am undefeated!

1:0:0

Beautiful spring day, pulling sedately away from a traffic light. Get up to 35 in 3rd gear and all of a sudden I hear this downshift/roar on my left as a black Magnum SRT starts his run from my blind spot.

He never even made it to my front bumper.

Trying to figure out why he didn't just make his intentions known at the light so I could have accomodated him in a fully sportsmanlike manner. Why the sneak attack?]

Ah well.

Just pressed the pedal down. I have that same problem although it is much better with the new suspension/tires.

Nice kill. Run that thing at the track, I'd love to see how it would do against some head/cam bolt-on LS1's. [8D]

DOOOO EEEET!

I'm curious because I just want a comparison with other 3v GTs with big RWHP numbers.
