Default Ran an SRT-8 Magnum

My buddy and I rolled around last night and ran into a SRT-8 Magnum. The driver was an older guy so I had no idea he would run me. But he started lining up with me. I don't think the guy does much racing or at least has never heard of three honks. He kept jumping without warning WOT haha. Every time I would get in and would reel him in pretty quick. My car is full bolt-ons, Cam, susp stuff. made 406/383.

SRT8's move well, especially from a roll race.
When my only mods were a stall and a c/b, I could pull one from a dig, but from a roll, I could not hang with one even if I got the jump.

If being the operative word. For example: "Different outcome if he didn't have motor work done...", or "...if my aunt had ***** she'd be my uncle".

Both presuppose an imaginary situation.

Reading comprehension > Deuuuce.

Comprehend this: motor work (cam) was the deciding factor. I.E. done deal. Bolt-ons - drivers race.

You've got to give Deuce credit...he's one of the only mopar guys in here defending these behemoths. I've got to admit if they were a couple hundred lbs lighter we'd all be in trouble

I comprehend that you like to talk about imaginary races and fabricate excuses. Stick to Harry Potter, he's more your type.

I prefer to see and hear about real races and real results, not all this "if" stuff and opinions.

If you have a real race to share with us, feel free. But if you keep jumping in threads and making excuses for cars, you sound like a tool.

I've already posted mine. And I won - because they DIDN'T have gears.

If you don't like opinions, stay off the boards.
