Who would gut the cats on a srt8 and not tune it lmao. The tune is the best thing you can do for that car. Still strong running hemi for being stock. Good runs

Just the way they are geared. Sweet spot for them is a 30 mph, 60 and 100 mph roll.

I'd believe it if there was salt or sand on the road, but if the temperature is the only excuse then it's a bad one. 40 degrees only shouldn't make THAT big of a difference for a turd like his Camero.

It really depends on the tires... A summer only tire starts to suck pretty bad sub 60. I start having traction problems well before they start salting here.

Something about taking a picture of yourself just comes across as gay. Unless you're somewhere cool or with a celebrity or whatever...

I was being a sarcastic ***, lol. But, I'd be lying if I didn't admit that I have taken some selfies before

C'mon now... Look at the reality there. 40* out, 30mph, dry road... less than 350rwhp in a 3400ish pound car... Spin to 70mph? NONSENSE! That's either bad tires or worse than bad tires!

At 500hp I can see the Z28 spinning on a cold street. With a proper DR it would be a little different but more than enough to turn them over.

Who expected the SRT8 to have a chance? The Camaro is lighter and putting down more power.

I know the Camaro is lighter but...didn't those SRT-8's have 425 at the crank? I would think the Dodge has more power.
