That Srt4 rocks the boat!!! Street sleeper!!! Have you found a lot of limiting factors on that way to the power level you are running! Trans./clutch/axles/headgaskets etc. I know it come down to good planning and the the tuning. How heavy is a SRT4? If I was the vette owner and I didn't know you......you woulD get the 2 thumbs up award of the day!!! Still a cool video....Watched it 5 times!!! Here is a little project that I'm working on... www.sammichael.com/ls1/turbotacoma Enjoy!!!

sweet vid! but why are you guys running from such high rolls? the next vid go from a low roll or from a dig. that would tell the real difference in the 2 cars. the high roll helps the turbo alot more than the vete. sweet rides though

Even though you tried to punk me out before, I'm going to agree with you completely here.

Because of traction....

On street tires, the Z06 will kill him hands down RWD > FWD. In stock form the SRT already has traction problems. With all that power, can you imagine trying to launch this SRT on 205 series street tires (the rims are only 6" wide)?

It'd be nice to see both of them on slicks at their local track though.

Hey man, I just wanted to say that was some awesome editing done on your part. That is one of the better videos I've ever seen.

Nice cars, nice runs!

Yea, I would love to run Jim from a dig or a slower roll, but it would be useless due to excessive wheelspin by both of us. 1st and 2nd gear is useless in the cooler weather. I get about half way in each gear and it will start to lose traction to the point it will start to whaletail all over the place

Nice turbo kit you have there The 50trim is good for a few more MPH, I'm guessing we'll be running 128+ in the next week or so.
