Default ws6 vs charger srt8

Wanna know what fellow brothers think here. Do you think my car, which is an a4 and the mods I have. Could take an dodge charger srt8? My buddy's pretty confident he'll take me. What do you guys think.

At the track i raced an SRT8 Magnum, and beat him pretty good. This was before i had the cam and was just running intake, headers, exhaust, and worn out Hankook tires. And what made it even more fun is that he jumped and got red lit, and i just reeled him in and passed him without a problem.

**And im an M6, as an A4 you should have no problem beating him off the line.**

Umm... unless I am missing something he said Charger SRT-8, not just the regular hemi. I've personally seen them break into the 12's stock at our local track, so I think it would be a pretty close race.

Yeah I totally agree with that. I don't know how 90% of the people in this thread say they, "smoked" the Srt-8.

One thing the SRT-8 has over the normal hemi is 420 horse compared to 350.

You'll definately get him if your cars running tip top.
Don't underestimate them though, they have lots of power even if they are heavy.

Stock for stock, a good running LS1 car is a good race with an SRT8 car.

Good luck! Let us know how you did

engine, exhaust, and AFAIK, some suspension stuff.
Good for 12.6@111 bone stock with a badass driver in good weather. Average, 13.0-13.2@106-109ish. They ARE IRS, so most people arent that good at driving them on a strip

yah the srt8 is a 6.1 liter hemi as opposed to the 5.7 liter hemi motor. they are putting around 420 hp and run anywheres from high to mid 13's in arizonas heat. it should be a decent race but i think you'll grab the win. i beat them with intake and 4.10's by a good amount. keep us posted on the race.

They're not great down low but have a very mean top end. I think peak power on them peak's at 6200
