Default raced a stationwagon.... oh yeah.

I was sitting at a light singin' along to some tunes this am when a kid maybe 16-17 years old pulled up next to me in a Dodge magnum. I glance over and he smiles and revs his motor, which would have been more impressive if I wasn't blaring my tunes about 100 db.

anyway he went just before the light turned green maybe got his front wheels to the oppisite side of the cross walk before I let out the clutch. I passed him like nothing and had put distance between us when I shifted to second, I didn't even use all of second because he was behind me and I thought the race was over. He turned right at the next light so I couldnt really see his reaction.

I thought those things had a lot of power, I didn't ever see the back so I don't know if its an R/T or what. I also don't remember seeing HEMI badges I didn't look that hard. but I thought it would have been closer, I mean I had a weight advantage but I understand he had more power.... ah well.

I just googled the thing I guess I should smoke the SE or SXT, I think the R/T might be a good race and Im think I need to put some work in to my car to hang with the SRT-8

IMO You can't put the Magnum in the same class as the other wagons...

Don't the Magnums have a V6 model? That's prob what it was.
SE: 2.7L 190 hp V6
SXT: 3.5L 250 hp V6
RT: 5.7L 340 hp V8 HEMI
SRT-8: 6.1L 425 hp V8 HEMI

He raced an SE or SXT.
