My S.R.T-4 Vs. FireHawk First off I would just like to say I wish I had that car...on to the story:
I was cruising around Woodward last night when a lowered white Firehawk came up beside me after I race a stock '03 Cobra. He said I did pretty well for staying with him. He asked if I had a turbo and I said yes...THEN he said..."I also have a turbo."
<<My face at the time.
I was shocked/amazed/happy all at the same time. I told him if he would run me just in the bottom gears to see how hard that thing pulled. We both dropped down to 1st. I got a very quick car on him in 1st but when he hit second he started to blow by me until one of his pipes blew off. So, I followed him and he fixed it. We talked for a few and he said he is putting down around 550whp and trapping 128mph with a nitrous setup and 122mph with motor and turbo.
So, we both get back on the road and we went from second gear this time. He has a huge turbo so I started pulling on him but RIGHT when he spooled it felt like I put it in reverse and went back the other way. That thing just kept pulling.....AND PULLING!!!
Firehawk
I had a great loss!
