That's about all that's different! You guys have 18" wheels, right (versus our stock 17")? You'd think that would take a little away from your performance, but it certainly doesn't seem to do so in the least!
I'm assuming the ESP and ASR systems are the same between our cars also.

Either way, if you look at the fastest documented (i.e. Dragtimes) C32 (fongflex), the trap speeds are very similar. Where y'alls SRT-6's really shine appears to be in the first 1/8 mile.

Take MDSRT6's documented non-nitrous run:
1/4 mile is 12.103 sec at 115.25mph. 1/8 mile is 7.884 sec at 92.22mph. 60' time is 1.885 sec.

Take the fastest documented C32 run:
1/4 mile is 12.388 sec at 114.05mph. 1/8 mile is 8.018 sec at 89.98mph. 60' time is 1.863 sec.

While acknowledging that the degree of mods may not be directly comparable, and that we can generally agree that the trap speeds and 60' times between the two cars are kinda similar, the SRT6 is picking up about 0.2 secs in the first 1/8 mile.

Awesome stuff!
