It's SR&K and you have talked more **** than I have by far. You posted less than ideal 6.1l results to back your argument that a g8GT is a close race, then accused everyone else of living in fantasyland. I've personally seen stock 6.1L SRT8 cars running bottom 13s / high 12s over here at fantasyland (aka Cordova Dragway). The best I've seen from a G8GT is a 13.5... Half a second difference isn't a 'close' race to me. I actually had your back if you were taking the GXP but apparently those are a waste of money because the GT is just as fast.

I don't know how you think the 6.1 SRT8 runs low 13's since it runs fender to fender with a G8 GT which runs right around the mid 13 range. Obviously the 6.1 you saw wasn't stock since it runs in the same range as the G8 GT.
Stock means original tires too, which make a huge difference since the SRT8 has traction issues with the stock tires. The article I posted is more accurate than 2 cars that you presumed to be stock that probably ran on different days, which also makes a big difference.

Nice run OP! Those 392s actually pull pretty good up top, so the fact that you stopped his pull and walked on by says a lot about your G8.
And I know exactly what you mean about how numb we are to mid 11 second cars. I get that same "you're crazy as hell" look when I tell passengers I need more power and that my car really isn't all that quick compared to all the 650 horse cars, modded LS7s, etc, etc.

The mod list never keeps growing.

The GXP is faster than the GT since it has a bigger motor with a more aggressive cam. If you knew anything about cars you would know that, but like I said you don't know squat.
