Now back the the bs. Lol

No competition for the GXP?? Well first of all there have been plenty of bone stock srts into the 12's. I wanna say the record is 12.5-7. Even if this werent the case most stock cars will run 13.00-20's near sea level. Whats even funnier is the.13.4 record for the gt yet he was sayin srts are only 1-2 thenths quicker.

As stated before i think the gt vs new 5.7 is a drivers race as to with the gxp vs the 6.1. Would never say its "no competition" for any one vs the other.

Now the 392 will have its way with a gxp stock vs stock.

All I have to say is I am enjoying my DD and breaking a record is just a bonus no matter how short lived that victory is.

I did a little time over that way a while back. I did the "other" sandbox this last deployment. The particular deployment I am on now is not a tactical one so it is pretty cushy in comparison, but still prevents me from playing with the G8.

Ya I would say its more of a drivers race.

Throwing the 392 in the mix and its over. stock for stock.

I guess the G8 is doing good. I am roughly 7,000 miles away from it while it gathers dust in the storage unit so it is hard to tell. Engine and transmission are broken in so when I get back I can actually go WOT with it again once I tune it.

http://www.g8board.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34716

I beat a G8 GT that has full bolt ons and a tune and his best time so far is 8.33@86. My best is 8.2@88 with an intake, Predator Tune and a CAI, on 22's you do the math and tell me that bolt on G8 GT's are smoking bolt on SRT8s. Most guys at our track with my mods are running high 7's with the stock 20's
All I can tell you is I beat a Charger SRT8 with my GT. We had the same mods. I have an awesome tune and an extra gear, and less weight so I'm just saying what I know from my experience. As far as other G8s, more notably the GXP vs. SRT8 equally modded, countless articles, threads, or whatever putting the G8 in front...consistently. Truthfully there is no driver's race between an R/T and a GT. GT wins almost every time.

The Grand Prix GXP is a better match up for the Charger R/T. I've beat a handful of Chargers at the track and on the street. The G8 GT is definately the faster car.

Say what you want but mod for mod the SRT8 vs GXP is a drivers race and on more then a few occasions the SRT8 came out on top. You beat an SRT8 good for you but ive beat G8's with the same mods as you with less mods on my car. Your G8 is not beating a properly driven SRT8 with the same mods end of story. It has more hp, faster times, trap speeds and alot better top end then your G8.
