Default 6.4L SRT Challenger vs the 'ol F-body

I was minding my own business taking a stroll in mexico when a new 6.4L challenger pulled up at a light. My "V6" badge and SLP loudmouth exhaust with a cam seemed a contradiction so he tested me. Light turns green and he just does a huge tire roast. I leave from Idle and put 3-4 cars on him...

We get rolling and when the road gets clear he tries to pass me from about 50. I downshift to 2nd gear and right as his front bumper is about to inch past mine I start pulling from him and go on to put another 2 cars on him, letting out from 100. (Would have kept going but speed limit in mexico was like 45).

I pull into the gas station because I was about to be walking, and he followed. Very nice guy but he was very disappointed in losing to an "old Camaro". I told him if it made him feel better that it wasn't stock and it wasn't a V6.

We lined up going about 30 and I gave him the hit. It was a long vacant highway so we did not let out till my speedometer was well past buried. I had put 3-4 cars on him again.

Pretty normal? Did he need a driver mod? BTW I need a gopro so I can catch this stuff!

Yeah all he had was a Corsa Axleback or catback. He said he had plans for a supercharger.

Nice kill, I got one of dem ol'cambraro's too. There is something gratifying about walking a car worth more than twice your own.

Exactly. That is my favorite part of the car! It's not the fastest car out there but for the money, you can beat up on stuff $50-$60k range.

Good kill, even with that blower a H/C fbody will still take him.
