Yes you even have a good chance of beating a Charger SRT8. They do 0-60 in 5.0 seconds so if they make a mistake in driving or you have some boltons it would be very close. As for the charger R/T its 0-60 in 6.2 seconds. So once again unless you make a error in driving thats the only way you will loose.

I wouldn't be so fast to count them out! I've got a buddy with a Charger r/t and he's running 14.0's stock. I've seen SRT 8's pulling 13.4's, and 13.6's stock on a weak launch. The r/t's equal a close race. The SRT 8's would probably take you, unless your heavily modded. But with 425 hp, what would you expect.

SRT-8 would slaughter our cars, Charger RT if you catch him from the dig he won't catch up I have raced a couple and put them down hard. I raced a hopped up SRT-8 jeep and lost by about 8-10 cars, thing had a **** load done to it, exhaust, chip, CAI and that chip to disable the awd in it.

whoa.... they wouldnt slaughter by any means. i went to lapeer dragway and raced a srt 8 charger a bunch of times. his best was a 13.4 and mine was a 13.6 the charger isnt as quick as i thought it would be. ive taken a charger r/t on the road a couple times, those i have no problem with them
Yeah I once raced an STR-8 from a left turn lane....yes...a left turn lane lol. Anyways, I made it around the turn a little quicker than him so I got the jump on the straight away....he couldn't pull on me at all. The guy pulled up next to me afterwards and was amazed and asked me if I have a supercharged 6....I LOL'ed. And yeah the R/T's are no big deal....easily walkable.
