OP, was he starting in 1st gear each time? I don't doubt the outcome whatsoever vs. a stocker. Especially since 40mph is WAY HIGH for 1st gear and a dead spot for 2nd.
Beat stock Terminator with mine.
So what!
Also weighs less than some Ferraris and MBs too! Which would you rather have?
I know, the Ferrari or MB. Me too.

[QUOTE=Deuuuce;11047602]OP, was he starting in 1st gear each time? I don't doubt the outcome whatsoever vs. a stocker. Especially since 40mph is WAY HIGH for 1st gear and a dead spot for 2nd.
That was exactly what I was wondering. I just bought my wife an SRT-8 charger yesterday and I noticed that at 40 it will not drop down to 1st gear and is pretty much a dog......... it pulls strong from 20 mph.
I'm going to run the Charger against my Trans Am when I get a chance. To be honest, I think that from a high speed roll the charger will probably stay pretty close to my pontiac.
By the way, we first test drove a G8 GT (6.0L) and found that the charger felt noticable quicker and also had a smoother ride as well.
To the OP: Good kill, I would have put my money on you (if he was stock)...... I would like to see your WS6 against Deuuuce's Charger.

The LS2/LS6 CTS-V was supposedly stiffest of all.
An intake/exhaust/tuned G8 will edge out a stock SRT-8. Go I/E/T with the 6.1 and it swings the other way, of course.
Haven't seen data yet on modded GXPs. Anyone else?
