Default 94 T/A vs srt4 and a talon

Drove up to sheetz in Bethlehem last night with my 2 friends in my ta, saw a couple of guys parked in the corner turning on their cars to go run on the local highway. Quick pulled over to them and asked if anyone wanted a run. Passenger gets outta the srt4 and asks if i wanna go for cash. I say no because the srt4 currently has radials on the front and NO hood. Anyway, we go out, and me and the srt4 are in front of traffic and the other cars..

We go from a low 30 roll, I'm in first @ 3k [the best rpm range for my setup]. I can't get my damn window down in time and missed the 3rd beep but still went, i pull about half a car on him in first and spun a little in second and he ends up about a half a car ahead @ 130mph...

I KNOW i can get him this time...

25 roll on the next highway, no traffic, just the racing cars.
We go on the 3rd and I don't spin at all and end up about a car ahead of him.. we are currently doing about 135+ and I slam on the brakes to let him get over so he doesn't hit the back of his friends corrado. He doesn't.

He hits the rumble strips doing about a buck 40 and passes all of them on the shoulder..

We get off the next exit to a bigger 3-lane highway. We had a 3way race with the T/A in the middle, talon left and srt right. Same results as the second race and the talon was roughly 20 cars back.

We all met up after and they all ended up being really cool kids and now we're friends!

Very good friday night.

Good kills.

Are those really your only mods listed there? Why go with a TH350 trans on a basically stock car?

Unless that trans does something i dont know about, the car would almost 100% certainly lose to even a stock SRT-4.

its ok man i joke about it all the time, and i never know because no speedometer.. its killer from a low roll.

I got it for a steal and had it rebuilt costing me only parts.

I spent 100$ on the th350 with the 4th gen crossmember, and it was rebuilt with 1400 worth of parts.

and yes those are the only mods i have done.
