If you can drive you will crush it.

They are mid 14 cars with an average driver and those parts aren't going to do a lot for him. Not to mention that SRT-4s get crazy wheel hop and don't launch worth a damn.

No worries.

I raced a modded SRT-4 before and crushed him. This was about 3 years ago and I forgot the modifications he mentioned but I remember taking note that it was a moderately modded SRT-4. It shot out some flames out of the rear too.

All I have done is a lid and an exhaust cut out at the time.

It all depends on the SRT4s driver.

Ya, valid point.

I assumed from a dig but this gentleman is correct.

40+ Roll and it may be a different story.

Give him the hit depending on where you race.

Don't want him to torque steer into your car

Yeah, you are right on that. From what I understand, it isn't too hard to correct for the torque steer anyway, but going from that guys craigslist ad, it doesn't look like he has the suspension for it.
