Default Just got RAPED by a S R T Challenger......
I was just driving home for lunch when I see a black car about 10 cars back but coming up quick. As soon as he got behind me I thought to myself sweet! I get to see how fast those things really are!

So it is wide open three lanes in front of me so I just punch it, to which he also follows suit. It wasn't pretty. He whipped around my left flank and it was downhill from there, easily put 7-8 on me.

Of course I had to stay in it after he let off and give him the ricer flyby, it only felt right after how dirty he did me.

Put a real motor and tranny in the fox, and it wouldn't be so bad.

Dont' get advice from Chris though.......you want it to run after 2 races.

i saw his sig pick then saw 7-8 lengths and thought to myself "theres no way that thing was running low 12s" then i saw "slow" and "mustang" next to each other (two words often found in the same sentence ) and it all starting making sence lol

good death though, so this all means that the challengers run low 13s correct?
