i actually told him to follow me, i told him we should go from a dig. But the traffic was soo damn backed up that time

We did 35 roll also, but the guy kept missing third... so there was no point for me to even post the vid. On that vid, we take off, where i pull a nose and then its like he hits a brick wall....

Imo, from a stop, it would have been nasty for him since im suspecting he isnt a best driver out there

New R/T's are slow.... I haven't heard anything about the new srt's but would love to run one... those things would be nasty on a diet!

The 6speed 5.7s/6.1s are not as quick as the 5As.

Sad though they are only trapping around 110 stock with all that power.
The 6.1s are close to a 6M Fbody, the new 6.4s should run pretty even to a full bolt-on Fbody, stock.

I'm not sure what you mean by 5A's unless u mean the 5 speed auto they have? Anyway I'm pretty sure what I said agreed with exactly what you posted so I'm a little confused why u even quoted me? The 6.1 is around the same performance as a stock fbody and the 110 the new 392's trap is around a bolt on fbody auto manual fbods will trap a tad higher maybe 112. So like I said idk what you were getting at.

I honestly won't be surprised if a stock m6 ls1 will walk an m6 srt8.... man... I can't believe
I once considered getting one over the c5z....glad I chose the z06!!!
Those hemi's are still being walked by a 13 year old car... hell, even a stock 335I beemer put up a better fight against my slow DD t/a than the full bolt on challenger

So today i was picking up a few things from the store minding my business, and out of nowhere this **** blows my doors off doing 80+ in a city, and holy **** that thing sounded loud... pretty good actually.

I was in my 98 trans am at the time, so i said "**** it, this is my chance, win or lose!!! lol" and as soon as i saw him merger into a left turn lane, i immediately pulled behind him.

All of a sudden, seeing me in the rear view mirror, this guy just revves the crap out of the car for a good 5 seconds... well, i responded with my measly open cutout on my stock T/A exhaust

Ok so now to the good stuff.

We both turn on the yellow light and line up! Races were short, due to us being in the city and i didnt wanna pull no fast and the furious ****

Oh, we talked after the race and according to him his car is
2010 Challenger R/T 6 speed
Mods: Full exhaust, Headers, CAI

Me:
98 Trans Am A4 2.73 gears
Mods: Cutout on stock exhaust, Volant CAI and PTB

We did multiple runs with me ending up 1.5 cars ahead from 25 mph roll.
This is the only vid i could get ahold of without him "missing the 3rd gear"

Oh, and i didnt jump on that one, i nodded for him to take off if that matters

His excuse for loss "my car weighs 5000 lbs"
But he was impressed with how this race turned out


Next victim: 2010 infiniti G37S coupe 6 speed with some exhaust work done... Apparently thats his homie!! Its white with black stripe, it seems everyone does that color combo to their cars haha
the challenger was at the 1320 hangout yesturday reving but no action....

Good kill, but try to bring it out of the public area next time. As for the G37 you should be able to take him. I had a g37s 6mt and ran it against my bone stock ws6. The G had high flow cats, catback, CAI, and tuned. I could only put about 1 car length on my fbody driven by my friend. If the guy is stock it should be a cake walk. Modded, it may put up a decent fight. Try to run from a dig if you can.
