Default 13 5.0 vs srt6

I met up at a local meet with some buddies, over heard a 5.0 and 03 cobra owner talking about my slowfire. I asked if they would like to cruise to Mexico for some friendly runs. The chase car is a 2010 GT: intake tune 410 exhaust
13 5.0 - stock
Srt6- intake,pulley,tune
03 Cobra-exhaust
First roll 50
Srt6 3/4 a car till around 140 ,ended up dead even

2nd: srt6 by 1-1.5 cars, cobra jumped in late

3rd: srt6 1/2 car on 5.0 , cobra got jump

Def a love or hate car, but does work on a lot of unexpecting people.

It's hard to call a SRT6 a sleeper. There's something about it's looks that give a warning that it's got something under the hood. Nice runs and kills srt6xf!

They're not sleepers by any means, both the base and the SRT6 models do look sporty. But in a girly way, IMO.
It's the interior that sucks, though. Looks like someone went through a lego bin for the parts.

First time I've heard them called a SRT6, just knew them as Crossfires.

Guy I know, his ex-wife had one and she used to run it at our local drag strip. From what I remember it ran low 13's.

Thats what they run stock, I remember seeing one @ MIR back in 07 just after I bought my SRT8 and he was running 13.3 and the like @ ~106. I've only seen two, the one at MIR and then one on little creek / dam neck. None since beyond the base models and the occasional Mercedes version.

Good runs OP.

Be careful when throwing around that term buddy.

Wikipedia is our friend:
The Crossfire was based on the R170 platform and shares 80% of its components with Mercedes-Benz SLK320. Chrysler did the interior and exterior styling, all other elements of the car such as wheelbase, track, engine, transmission, chassis structure, suspension components, are shared with R170 platform. [7] An example of this is the engine bay of the Crossfire, which is virtually identical to the Mercedes-Benz SLK320 on the R170 platform. The seats from an Mercedes-Benz SLK320 would bolt directly into the Crossfire chassis. The dashboard layout, control panels, and instruments are very similar to those on the Mercedes-Benz SLK320.

The SRT-6 trim level, as both coupe and convertible, featured an AMG supercharged engine delivering 330 hp (246 kW) and 310 lb·ft (420 N·m) of torque in a 3220lb package.[2] Other SRT model differentiating features included suspension and brake modifications, and a fixed vs. retractable rear spoiler. The Crossfire SRT-6 model used the same drive-train, suspension, and braking components as those used on the Mercedes-Benz SLK 32 AMG.

Car and Driver: 60-mph run now swiffs by in 5.1 seconds, a 1.4-second improvement over a six-speed manual Crossfire we tested in 2003. That car ran the quarter in 14.8 seconds at 96 mph. The SRT-6 posts a 13.5-second quarter, steaming through the trap at 107 mph.

I used to like the srt6, until I saw the interior. And my wife has a SLK320, so I know the chassis is the same. Like I said, the interior is terrible:

Depends on if you like chrome or not. Everything looks to be in the same exact position on the two cars, just different styling.

Where did you get your mods for the SRT6? I've always wondered that. PM me if needed

Nice runs
