Bolt on Camaro SS vs. SRT4
Finally had a little race with one of these skittles. There seems to be a ton of those around here but never the opportunity to run one...until yesterday.
Long story short, we went a few times from a dig (basically stop light to stop light) and I would pull 2-3 cars, up to only about 60mph. I spoke with the guy at the light and he said he was completely stock. If that is the case, those things are pretty quick!
If we would have kept on going I think it would have gotten alot uglier for him as I was pulling pretty good before I let off.

I've spent a lot of time at srtforums warstories (back when it existed) so I know all about the SRT-4's that trap 120-130. But the thing is those cars seem to only exist on the internet. Every one I raced at NYIRP runs mid 13's or slower
Skittles. Taste the rainbow
Good kill.

i have no idea of the stages.
but I killed one the other night. I saw him come onto the freeway off the ramp and i somehow knew hed track me down. he had "187" on his windows.. like maybe he was a track car or some ****.
he kept pulling fly bys on me.. and i was like wtf.. i did the same ****.. until i got up next to him and he saw me brake and he got next to me.
from like an 80 rolll to about 110, i put like half a car on him... but we hit traffic.. i rolled down and was like "your quick!"... dumbass couldn't hear me or some ****..
i'd have LOVED to run him from a dig or lower speed rolls... my feathering is good.. heh.
good kill.

My friend traps 116 in his stg 3, my other friend has a big turbo neon (stock motor) and runs 11.88@122 He pulls a 1.8 60' on DR's. It is VERY common to see an SRT4 pulling 1.8's on a tire if the driver knows what they are doing.

Im pretty sure dom's neon from albany ny would have taken you from a dig or on the highway. He does 523 whp and 497 wtq. Before juice. His best run has been 10 something. And he is still having traction issues out the ***. But than again he is a rare example of srt-4 power.

I got that off this thread BTW:

So if Dom can beat 10.7 then there are a lot of folks at srtforums and srtsyndicate that would love to hear about it. He would be the new SRT-4 god
SRT-4's can be fast but they can't launch for ****. 1.7 60'? I can do that with bolt-ons and balding Nittos. Most F-bodies trapping 130 are hitting 1.2-1.4 60' times. It's the FWD that's killing them. Not to mention they look like a neon

Hes not the only one in the 10s in an SRT4, there are a decent amount of them. Back when I was reading SRTforums I would see them occasionaly step in and post up slips and stuff. We all know FWD sucks for launching I dont know why you are trying to make fun of that. Those damn cars only weigh 3100 pounds if that, with what people do for weight reduction you have a car under 3000 pounds and with over 500 hp to the ground it makes for one nasty little car.

Wow. Another skittle kill thread that has morphed into a 10 sec. skittle thread...come on guys. We all know that most anything can be modded to a monster and that there are a few skittles running around that can hand an LSx or cobra it's ***, but thay are few.
Good kill poster...you had the faster (and better looking) car! Damn skittles...

I'm not making fun of FWD. I am however making fun of them looking like Neons
I have seen a pickup truck that looks like it was from Sanford & Sons run a 9 second quarter mile. I have seen a mid seventies station wagon run in the 9's as well. You can make any car fast with time, knowledge and a whole lotta money. But when the fastest LS1 based F-body is in the 6's it gets a little difficult for me to be impressed by a FWD SRT-4 that takes everything they got to get into the 10's.
That's just my opinion.
