Were you in the v6? Crossfires aren't to fast. Pretty quick but that's all.

Ya know I haven't really thought about it but they are a FI powered production cars, could it be that certain Mopar guys have indeed modded them to make them real fast just curious? I know somebody here probably doesn't know the truth but has a guess.

The SRT6 models are pretty quick.

330hp, 3200lbs, mid 13s.

The regular models run high 14s.

SRT6 are pretty quick ! They have AMG S/C Mercedes engines plus there weight is on the low size. My dad has one, he just bought a 5.0L Mercedes V8 to put in it. It a complete drop in and is rated at 302hp/340tq. With your typical i/e, cams, and tuning they can reach over 400hp.

Yeah that seems quicker than I thought they were. Do they have pullies for them? I'm sure they do.

Wow, no wonder every SRT6 Crossfier I've come across gets a little ballsy with me on the freeway. They do have some bite for the middle of the food chain tier cars.

Wow, I didn't realize how light they are, in comparison to some cars.
But their interior looks like a pile of **** mixed with cheap plastic.

12.6 on street tires could mean tons of work, time, and money and very little to show....just sayin'

The one I raced couldn't have been an SRT-6 I guess. It was at the track and he ran a 14.6ish I believe.
