no, the srt chargers and challengers are low 13 second cars with a bad driver and high 12's maybe with a really good driver. My car is right up there with my buddy who can't drive his SRT lol, his best was a 13.1 at a badly preped track. But from a high roll he will pull me all the time but if we race from a dig or low roll i'm even tell 80 mph then he will start pulling..

When I was a whippersnapper, a friend of a friend had a great imitation Shelby GT350. White with blue stripes, big wheels, the de-muffled sound of his 289 (2.8 final drive IIRC).

We were cruising one night, he screwed with many-a-car that could blow his doors off without half trying.
It was great fun, but he never raced it. For obvious reasons.

And no one called his bluff? or did he just back out if asked to race?

A friend of mine had one and went 13.0 @ 110 bone stock. We have no chance against SRT8s.
